new appearence mod today!! opinions?

so i was on ebay looking at fender stripes and they were lik 25 bucks...then i thought, hey i can go to the flea market and they can just print out some 3 inch wide black lines for me for super cheap...i go to the flea market and ask if they have flat black...the guy says yea hold on and looks around for like 5 min...he then gives me like a 10 foot roll of it..i mean he seriously just gave it to me for free hes lik here you can have it knowone ever buys it and it takes up space and it wont work in my machine..so i was like hell yea....i went home and cut everything up very carefully and heres the finished product

I like them, especially with the smaller stripe on the outsides. I would've made them the same angle as the angle of the bumper/fender tho.

Im with him. If it were my car id go with all black rims. IMO they look KINDA tacky/cheesey I don't know why thats just what I think when I see them. and I wouldn't have put the stripes on either. Then again thats just my opinion. But you like it so thats all that matters.

sometimes a cleaner look is a way to get people to go damn look at that cobalt that was sick, that can be achieved with simple things such as a drop and tint even. im sure youll be the only one to have them in your area as modded cobalts arent something really anyone has in the same area as theres anyway or it could also be that people just dont like them. could be many things. im not baggin yours im just saying in general

Woah man chill. I just said I didn't like it thats all. Its a much cleaner look. Just because it's different doesn't mean its better. LIKE I SAID, you like it and that's all that matters. Calm down broski.
