^^^your lookin for steve, he's a bit of a cpu guru

 

that would be me. and is price a factor.

 

no price isnt a factor, but its gotta be reasonable, i cant just get top of the line equipment for everyone. like the secretary is gonna need standard stuff middle of the line equipment, while the graphic designers will need top of the line graphic set up and ****.. and the manager will need lots of storage so he can run the programs that the graphic artists use and whatnot..

 

k well i'll work my magic and get back to ya with everything.

 

lol

you all forget i am a computer engineer!? haha well looks like steve is on it..

 

i would like to find one of these good paying jobs in calgary lol

 

theres lots out there

 

you can do labour for like 19 bucks min an hour to start. but also remeber the cost of living is alot more expensive here too.

 

This just pisses me off more towards GM..........this is an 09 Cobalt 2.2L and the usual silver POS cheep looking trim is now black........i don't understand WTF GM, why couldn't u do my ss/tc that way? or all the Cobalts since day 1??? lol they even skipped the steering wheel silver trim pieces......this makes me more and more not wanting to buy another GM.

 

Yes...because different color trim means GM makes an inferior product. *rolls eyes*

Is the person who owns the car pissed off about it? If so, tell them to head back to the dealer and fix it. It is a brand new (or pretty close to it) car and warranty is not an issue here. Pretty simple.

If you are going to base buying a GM car on something as simple as that, then you my friend are quite picky. If you are having major problems with the car, such as transmission issues or say a constant engine issue, then yes I understand why you would not want to buy a GM again. But this is a little problem that can be easily fixed.

 

srsly?

That's like me saying gm is garbage cause I missed out on the heated front seats and air bag sensors by 6 months. Lawl

 

my base model 2006 came with the blackish grey trim.. I painted it anyway to what I wanted. If your havin such a big problem with it why don't you just paint it the color you want it to be and leave it at that instead of complaining.

 

They aren't on his car....it is like that on someone else's car.

 

LOL

 

does it really matter what color the trim is on a car? lol

 

I realize that, seems to me all SS's came with the silver and the base models all came with the grey/black. What I was getting at most was if he doesn't like the color of his trim why doesn't he just paint them the color he likes best?

 

Agreed. Would make things easier.

 

im intersted, never done hard physical labour before..but id like to start.

 

i was warned taking the trim pieces off and getting them back exactly in place is a major PITA, as well maybe somebody can tell me, is it even possible to paint the hvac and headunit very easily or is that a PITA too??

You can't knock me for wanting a slightly more refined interior, that is personal choice. Yes I could paint it but in the end I am still disappointed with the overall interior and it makes me think in 2 years when I'm in the market for a 2nd vehicle it might not be a GM. I am still very happy with my Cobalt regardless of interior woes, I could not ask for a better setup sports car for the price paid.......u just can't escape that if GM had spend $500 more per ss/sc and ss/tc cobalt on a slightly nicer interior they would have sold like hotcakes. (<--yes i know that topic has been beat to death, raised from the dead and beaten to death again 100times over) And if somebody has decent experience pulling all the silver trim apart and wishes to offer their assistance one weekend to help me get it all pulled apart and painted that would be incredible

well, in other news the ebrake does not click into place anymore, i can hold the ebrake up and it still holds the rear brakes so it's not the cables......such a shame lol i'll get a free oil change outta this

 

It's not that hard to pull the trim pieces off. Yes they are held in quite well with the metal clips, but with a decent amount of careful force you can get them off. I have done it a couple of times now. And as for painting them, I know there is a "How to" on here somewhere on how to do that.

 

haha mike, i can see my car/rim in ur sig :P

 

lol that's halarious

 

Haha trav.

 

im good like that!! random things

 

it's days like today that make me want to put my summer tires back on, i'm told the conti's can deal with VERY LIGHT snow if your careful........but then we all know this is Calgary and tomorrow it could be -20C and had snowed 20cm already..........but then again lol it's February and it's +13C........i see a trend
