So its come time for the Cobalt to get a refresh. its got 109K miles, a bunch of rock chips and small dings from rocks on the highway, and a few parking lot dents. I ordered a New Front Bumper and im lookng for a straight hood. I also plan to use the TC grills in the New setup once its finished, Headlights are now black housing lights. so im going to keep the car Silver, the question being what to do to make it "mine"

1. Two Tone

2. Racing Stripes (Think 70 Chevelle)

3. Pearl Paint.

For Some reason i am stuck on a dark blue color From HOK called Cortez Blue, for the stripes or the Two Tone. or a blue pearl if i go that route. i just wanted some opinions.

The Blue:


Here's the car...

 

save it, buy some rims n drop it

 

it is lowered, and **** rims i asked about paint

and im painting it myself. so cost is very low to begin with.

 

Stripes.

 

complete color change with jambs n engine bay is a looong process my friend. I would just stripe it, or 2 tone it. And then thats just personal prefrence on your part And you cant just say "2 tone" without elaborating on what lines you will follow, etc.

 

stock or a complete color change. like it was said though it takes a long time to do the correct way and most dont realize tha mount of money that needs to be spent either.....2 tone looks stupid and most stripes on these cars dont look right.,

 

you ever see hockeymans old stripes, i LOVED them. they were straight baller. I think it can be pulled off, and 2 toning doesnt look bad either, matter of fact dont listen to boosted he drives a black car and is mad he cant do the evo mod

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA whatever lol. hockey stripes would be kool but i think the cars still a little too boxy for it.

 

Black cars can't do the evo mod? Really? I beg to differ.

 

They can but in all honesty its pointless. You will never notice it really. all the black evo 10's around iyou can barely tell they have them

 

carbon fiber on black car for evo mod.

 

Pearl FTW

 

Stripes Dark Blue is great! between imperial and a bit darker...

 

all of the above, 2 tone with the reversed racing stripes all in pearl paint !!!!!

 

leave silver but airbrush a hot ass naked chick on ur hood with rock hard nipples holding a NOS bottle

 

nice lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

ok heres what im doing. factory Silver i never said i was doing a color change, im not jambing or doing the engine bay, ive painted cars before, this isnt my first time. i still really like the stripe idea, in that Cortez Blue Color.

This is the look im going for




I HATE STRIPES that go all the way to the bottom of both bumpers, but the stripes on mine would go to the end of the trunk lid on my car.

 

meh i dont like it

 

I don't like the stripes, ground effects, or bading on that car. It's a lose-lose-lose. Like Gestapo said, the old stripes Hockeyman had on his car were sick.

 

yea those stripes look like they prematurely end on the trunk, like its such a random stopping point, its either end on the top of the trunk, or end on the bottom of the trunk. Why end 10% down the bottom of the trunk? To me its just not the best stripe situation going on.
