How does it look like?

Does anybody have experience with this kind of kit?

Hmm, sandpaper, primer, paint, clear coat all for 50$ or 113$ for stickers. I'd save the money, and paint

it's not about the money. I don't know how to remove the trim panels and how to paint for example the radio

the problem about these kits is they dont wrap around the corners, they just sit on the surface and you see your old color on the edges, it really looks like crap lol, We would atleast once a week have a customers car come in with these in wood grain. You want yellow trim? pm and I'll vinyl wrap it and it will look perfect. otherwise I would say just paint it.

sellers don't have negative feedback on ebay. If it looks cheap nobody can be satisfied.



Matthew:

I don't want to scratch or break them. I have to know where the clips are.

^Dude! I use to be in the car audio business the people who buy this crap are the same guys buying stick on vents and dont have a problem with it. it looks like ****! Im trying to help.

Everything is held in with snap clips, just pull and it comes off, look up the how to, Im sure there is one here. its nothing to be afraid about, changing your oil is harder then this

This. I just painted mine gloss black (wish I went satin or flat) and it turned out perfect other than to much shine. Use like 160grit sand paper, then 300 grit, then three or four light coats of Krylon Fusion and perfect

Changing oil??? I have to order the oil filter from the USA. The shipping to Hungary costs twice as much as the filter ))))

It was my dream to buy a 2006 Cobalt SS/SC for the price of a 2010 AUDI A4.

that's the only one in my country. we have the daewoo line in Europe. so it's imported

last two months I had some trouble with my cobalt. (cat converter, belt tensioner)
the GM in Europe doesn't know the GM-Numbers

Belt is made in Spain
Tensioner in Slovakia
Idler pulley in Germany

and I had to order from the USA

Now I'm planning to buy:
- Lambo door kit
- Halo projector headlights
- Trim kit (will be painted)

The shipping costs will be around 400 USD.
