Those are all lit with little LEDs, you would have to change them to pink ones, or cover/color them with pink film.

you might talk to black cat customs (one of our supported vendors) and see if they can help with the gauges... http://www.blackcatcustom.com/

blackcatcustoms could do your gauge cluster but you'd have to call them to see if they do pink.

Welcome. It looks like you are looking for enhancing your Cobalt’s appearance. This thread is better fit for the appearance section. We try to keep the site organized in by posting in the appropriate sections.
Thanks and good luck

I'd say get neons, LEDs, vinyl (door inserts), seat covers/inserts, steering wheel cover, shift knob, pedals. Those would be the options w/out getting too chintzy looking (like painting the dash or anything on the dash).

You're probably going to have to do a lot of custom work. I know a friend of mine who fitted an old "crystal/diamond" door knob as his shift knob. It looked sweet. He also used that fury **** carpet as his roof lining. All supplies that he picked up at Wal-mart and did himself.

IMO Pink and red don't go together, i completely understand a girl wanting pink on her car, but pink and red don't go together very well!!!! Red and blue, Red and Black, red and yellow, red and white, red and silver but when i think of red i don't think of pink!!!

Red and black, red and white, and red and silver are sexy!!!!!

you have to get everything custom when it comes to pink!!!! Good Luck

Here is a easy Mod that you can do in Pink!

This is before I stitched the Boot

This is After I did it with yellow in between the 2 Black 1s & this was very easy & all you need is some Pink thread from your Local Arts & Crafts!

She has an automatic, so that easy mod will not work for her!!!!


Very nice btw!!!


Another point i would like to make is if you are planning mods i hope you have friends who can help, because when it comes to mod work can gets very expensive, and if it is done the wrong way it will void your warrenty, this is coming from past expirence!!!!

warrenty is touchy and only applies to the parts associated with whats wrong with the car...for instance, lets say you put and intake on your car and you start experiencing...ehhh...stereo issues...they arent going to void your warrenty over that, the should still replace the speakers etc. ..however...if you start throwing a CEL and your car starts bogging or acting up, they can say its related to the intake and void the engine and transmission part of your warrenty which for most is 5 yrs 100K... but they should still fix other problems covered for the 3 yr 36k bumper to bumper or extended 48 k warrenty. GMPP which is the extended plan they sell through GM is NOT a bumper to bumper warrenty either. it does not cover wear and tear issues nor does it cover window motors, switches, sunroof switches and components and some other parts. so read your paperwork!

essentially a warrenty can be voided for any aftermarket part which is affecting the part which is experiencing the issue or is related to or in conjunction with that part.

if you choose any performance mods,...make sure its easily reversible and REMOVE the parts and replace them with stock before you go to the dealership.

painting things will not void a warrenty...it will only affect the rust warrenty if you paint the outside of teh car or any clips or parts that may snap when removing the interior to paint,

also, if you run at the track...BE CAREFUL,....GM reps in NY have been known to frequent races and will black flag a warrenty completely if you are caught beating on your car. but thats NY ...not sure about anyplace else.

hope this helps...i worked at a dealership a few months.
