What should I get?

Okay, I have a 2005 Black Cobalt LS and I'm pretty much looking to trick it out. So far the only thing I have put in it is some new subs, but I'm looking to get the actual look going. I made another thread on here on which tinting I should get, and it all came down to that I should get 35% all around since that's the most legal I can do

I'm currently looking for the following:

Rims (Tires aswell)

Lip splitter

Grill

Lights (Headlights and tail lights)

Cool air intake

Also taking suggestions

Will posts pics eventually of the project, but for now I need your opinions on which Company does the best for each part (specifically for the cobalt)

Thanks!

For the cold air intake, I have an Injen and would recommend it to anyone, its really nice. There are pics of it in my gallery

I have the 3rd gen Halos with 8000k HID's as well. Only issue i have had with my halos is one of the led's comes and goes. but other than that i'm happy with them as well.

i would becareful if you live in a state or area with alot of rain cold air intakes tend to suck up water. I live in FL alot of water so i got a k&n mounted high up with a hydro shield pretty much sock that goes over the cone.

Nah, doesn't rain much here. There's some storms every now and then but that's pretty much it

im talking not the rain itself but the huge god like river puddles that build up like in my complex when it rains it floods.

I mean dude cosmetic is just that cosmetic maybe black out your tails or fronts dont waste your flow on housings just get sum HIDs. I think the farthest i will go is rims which i already have but then again i was looking at body kits the other night only 434 for AIT

You should be gay and get a turbo. I mean my car is clearly gay.

But yeah, lower it before you get wheels and tires.

Rims - Check out the wheel section of this site in the thread "show off your aftermarket wheels" till you find a wheel you like.

Grill - SSTC bottom and lower grill

Lights (Headlights and tail lights) - Andys auto sport - ebay

Also taking suggestions - SS Kit. Cat Back exhaust if its a stick. M62 supercharger.


( This is what I would do )

I definitely recommend an injen intake. I love mine. Get a hydroshield with it. If you pm someone from turbotech racing you might even be able to get a free hydroshield. I pmed them and asked if they would throw one in with my order and they did haha. As far as springs go I know everyone goes with the sportlines but I am currently thinking about going with the ark gt-f's (I think thats what they are). They are having a sale til april 15th and they are only going for like 150. Rims and tires are whatever you like. I dont know if msr is still having their sale or not. Just look around at other ppls pics and see what you like. And definitely go with a supercharger!!!!!!!
