Ok soooooo since I lost my last Cobalt I will be getting a new one soon. I'm looking at getting one fairly cheap (around 16k) and I would really like to have it painted white b/c well.... white is sexy. Id expect to spend around 1-2k for the painting but since I know a few peeps I might even be able to get it a little cheaper in the end (depending on the cost of the paint). Just wondering if yall thought it would be a good idea to have a White SS S/C b/c I really think it would. Even after I get my car I will need to aquire funds to get it painted so It will take a few months just wanted to know everyones input on the matter.

 

woof full color change is very ambitious! $$$

 

Get a white 2.4 and turbo it.

 

go black or blue!

 

Black Ftmfw!

 

ok, if you're going to paint a cobalt, why paint it black which is by far the most popular color... if you're going to spend the time and money to paint it, do something original. if you want white, go for it.

 

Its your car so paint it whatever color makes you happy! Does it really matter what anyone else thinks other than yourself? I do not like white cars at all but done correctly they can look very clean. My favorite is the pearl white like on the caddy's and 3000gt's but that will cost a little more. Buy your car and have fun with it :0)

 

What he said^^^ the money you spend on paint will get you the hahn kit and 2.4 will cost you less to start with.

 

white rocks

 

go white....it will look amazing

 

Thanks for filling in what i was thinking.

 

price really isnt a big issue though b/c Id be getting the car painted for the price of the paint and not much more if at all (gotta love working in the car industry- even tho I do jack **** when I do something). Just didnt want to have an aftermarket induction when I can get one that is already made to have it on there. And like i said would probally be in like 4-6 months

 

I was planning on doing the white ss/sc, do something else so I can be one of the first to paint it white.

No, seriously, do whatever you want. If you like black a lot, go with black, if you like white, then go for it......after I paint mine white.

 

get an ss/sc, and have it painted that white/gold flake pearl GM puts on some of the new caddys and such, then put bronze/gold rims with a polished lip on it...HAWTNESS!!!

 

dont worry you still might beat me to it if I decide to do it... gotta get moms approval first or I gotta wait till may

 

go for white man i think the 2.4 looks amazing in white so a white ss/sc would be nicee plus no one else has it

 

Nah man, I was joking. i want to do that so bad. it WILL be my first mod. But you'll probably beat me. I won't be able to do it until I get my ss/sc, first off, then it will have to wait until summer. But yeah man, white ss/sc FTW. I just like being original soI have to be selfish.

 

Im suprised is hasnt been done more often b/c I personally think its sexy

 

i vote white, but i would paint is lime green if it were me... now thats original for a cobalt

 

I'd agree with you on that. but painting can be costly, and people learn to lvoe their stock colors. Besides, also, painting will make the car worth less when its sold.

 

i say plumcrazy purple
Actually, i think it'd be BADASS, to have a DARK silver ss/sc..
like a smoke gray?!
sexy..imo.

infact just paint it smoke gray and if you don't like it i'll be extremely happy to give you my black LT in exchange.................................lol

 

fyi engine bay is color matched, so you will need to pull the engine, unless you get a black one, then i would leave the engine bay black

 

or a red one...that'd look pretty goodd..imo..if you had the red car painted black then had the insides of doors/trunk/engine bay red...
2 toned anyways.
i wouldn't paint it black though
black is a
pain in the ASS for everything.
I still say go with the gray metallic look...it'd be one of a kindddd
kinda like this...


but darker, and it wouldn't be a truck, lol
