hey guys here is my cobalt and i cant decide if i want my pinstripes on or off, What do you guys think?


and an older pic:

 

they just end in the middle of nowhere...if you want to keep them i would wrap them around the back of the car with the trunk line as a guide. if not trash em

 

deff off

 

id scrap them and the body side mouldings

would look nice and clean

 

why is it only our white balts have the pin stripes? Thats the only color i've seen them on but i bet there are on all color models. I would try the trunk wrap like Jusday said but i wouldn't trash'em imo

yeah but he would have to bondo the holes where the moldings were right?

 

wow u guys are quick lol, just read ur posts, i dont thnk there are holes rite? just double sided tape.

i think im going to take the pinstripes off rite now

 

take that **** off, i never understood pinstripes i think they are a terrible addition to cars.

they take away from the car looking clean like an0malous said

 

ok just took them off, there is a white stripe now where they use to be, hopefully that will come off after a while. Now i guess tmrw i will take off the side moldings but im not sure.

 

take it off as well as the side molding

 

I know it's too late since you've already taken them off but I like the looks of pinstripes on Cobalts. I put a black one on my car and I love the look.

 

let me know how the side moldings turn out because if it is just double sided adhesive tape i plan on doing it to mine... and I see you liked my sig that i made lol

 

just dab some gas on a rag and wipe off the sticky stuff that the stripes left on the car. i did the same thing to mine, and i plan on taking off my moldings too.

 

i stripped the molding off mine today... it looks so much better. at least to me that is! i have a white balt btw. maybe ill post before and afters.

 

yes please do

 

Mine had pinstripes on it when I bought it. I left them on for a while, like a couple months, then one day while washing the car the head porter, who also has a yellow SS/SC, after giving me **** about them and telling me to take them off, just grabbed one and ripped it off, saying that he wasn't going to let me keep them anymore. By the time we got done, the trunk was debaged too. Car looks so much better clean.

 

yeah take them off

 

No offense but why does EVERYONE say gas or Kerosene???? they make stuff DESIGNED for a car. Turtle Wax bug and tar remover, goo gone, and goo gone Xtreme. I have all 3 and there is NOTHING that those will not get off my car.

 

^^ Agreed. "dabbing some gas on a rag" to clean your car is the most hillbilly thing I've heard today.

 

ya i used 3M automotive adhesive remover. It worked like a dream and also works very well for those AVS logos lol. I just got back from a 12 hour shift at work but tmrw after work i should take off the side moldings. I didnt mind them till you guys started talking **** about them lol. And now the more i look at them the more they look...cheap.


Ohh and i love that sig BTW lol, I got it off tht site, i cant really rmber rite now. But nice job. Now iff only someone could make me a custom sig... =)

 

Ok here the before and after I took the molding off and the GM badge.

Before:


After:


See the molding at the bottom left haha. Oh and the 3 cops across the street!

 

ya ill be removing those... The more i look the more they look bad...

BTW i reallllyy hope u have a shorty antenna or did something with it lol.

 

theres hot girl sexy, then there jessica alba/jessica simpson sexy, and then there are the pics you just posted I believe we call that Sexci.

Now drop that sonmabitch

 

alright, also i am getting the rksports kit in a couple of days, would getting a 1 1/2 drop make my car toooooooo low?

 

lol give me time i jus got the car haha! yes i know im dropping and shorty and a tun of other stuff

 

the stock antenna is by far the uglyest thing on any cobalt lol
