100% agree! The current ones are hideous beyond all belief. Like I KINDA like the bc2...but even still its like...KINDA like it.

Other cars that look good with body kits and stuff are cars that don't look good stock imo. Well most of them. I just think that gm got it 100% right straight from the factory on these cars. Love the stock look and if it would have looked different from factory and our "stock" kit had been sold as a kit then it would've definitely been the highest selling kit imo lol
I would be okay if the bumper went down lower so it doesn't look like its sitting on stilts no matter what you do!

It does look good, but I think it looks good because no one has made a good looking one to beta it yet. :/

Well...back to the 'evo' mods to make the cars look 'different'


At least a nice aftermarket lip would be good or at least some options on them besides stock.

You could do it like a focus that is local to me and do the ultimate evo mod lol. The part that would be painted is completely gone I don't even know how that happens! haha

and that could be a possibility...or maybe no one has made a good looking kit yet because they feel that the cobalt community is close minded..cuz we kinda are lol. start calling rice on anything that's different

Yeah, that is what this community is good for, being close minded for sure

I'll use a Supra as an example. There bumper sits up high, but when they lower it and put the really popular front lip on it, damn car looks amazing. Like I said, at least a damn lip would be good!

That yellow chop would look a lot better if:

you got rid of the hood tow hook, the hood pins, the sickers, the side exit exhaust, and the fins on front fascia

I love the front bumper on both SS's picture and Riceburners. I wish our cars had a more aggressive look like the SRT4s.

I do not like the wheel's that flush nor do i Like the side exhaust. Obviously its just a photoshop but it looks cool imo.

yes. Mold the wide body flared fenders and bam, would look good. I dont like the bolt on wide fender extensions. reminds me of the stupid Toyota Tocoma that has that

Well some of us want other stuff, different stuff, etc. And damnit there is a way to be 'different' without beign rice or retarded!

So I PM'ed a few people, gauged some local interest with some of my friends of other makes, and then shot a PM to extreme dimensions to see what they thought. They said if the interest is there, they will make it. So I thought, hey, what the ****, post it up, see if the masses like this style:




I personally love this photo shop. It wouldn't be exactly like this, but something of the sort. Allow the stance guys to get a bit low, and us aggressive/different people get something that looks really killer. Now it could be front bumper and side skirt extenders, or a whole wide body thing too. either way. Post up some opinions and stuff of what you'd like to see in reference to this.

Personally, gimmie a whole aggressive ass wide body and I'll be fine! But I'd be down for a less aggressive one with a good looking front bumper, side skirts, and rear to keep costs down. Just want a kit that actually looks good for once.
lmao people on here are so narrow minded and ignorant. i dont like the side exit exhaust of the tow hook coming out of the hood, not the canard air splitters on the sides of the front bumper but i don't think most people understand that it is a photoshop gone overboard and when you buy a bodykit none of that **** is with it..... that being said i like the front bumper, the sideskirts, and the wide body of it, which is all that extreme dimensions would be making.

I agree all we need is front lip options. That alone well make both the base model and ss model look different.

A lip kit! Several to choose from!

FWIW I'd kinda like the full body kit in the original picture. Minus the weird exhaust location.
