Opinions... "evo mod"

I've been thinking about the 'evo mod' , i like the way it looks on other peoples cobalts, but like many customizers ... i'm very picky about what i do , and if i dont like it ... it'd seriously bug me... i paid over 400 dollars to have the bumper and lip painted silver, so i dont want to not like it, but i'm pretty much 50/50 torn to do it or not...

I wanna know what u guys think, take a look at what im working with and let me know if u think it'd look good with it, or looks better the way it is now...

It'll look good with the black wheels I think. Can I see a close up of the grilles? Not sure if I like them

yah i go back and fourth... but if i go ahead and do the evo mod, theres no going back haha,

and the grill is perforated, really small holes i made with a punch press at work ... the top one are bigger holes because i didnt want to restrict air flow to bad

why don't you get some vinyl and put it on to see if you like it? that way if you don't you can remove it

i like the grills, but i think if you were to do the evo mod it may look better without them

damn, tough decision. I really like your car the way it is, a lot different than most balts i have seen, so props on that. Really diggin the custom grill. I think it would look good either way. I think the evo mod looks best on the silver and yellow balts. I really dont think you would go wrong doing it. haha good luck

vinyl is what I wished I did on my old balt, I grew tired of it after a while. The new car will NOT be getting the "evo" mod with a rattle can

Yeah, don't do it unless yu black out the grilles as well. I'm going to do it eventually. But that's because yellow cobalts with evo mod = teh sex.

I believe you can pick some up at any art supply like Hobby Lobby or Mardels or something.

Yeah I think if you do the evo mod it starts to clutter up the front end visually. With the eyelids, silver grille, and blue SS logo it gets to be too much. But, it's an original ride, and I'm guessing you haven't gotten this far by doing what other people think.

I vote you keep it clean, no evo mod for you, as said before it would clutter the flow of the car.

Also do you really wanna look like a Hundai Sante Fe?
