Looking at those lugnuts pics, I think I'm gonna buy myself a new set, but I am open to suggestions. I was thinking gold colored lugs to go with my black car and gunmetal 18s, what do y'all think of that? Or just stick with black? Any particular brand I should look at or stay away from? I seen some moteki sets on eBay for ~$60

I think gold would probably be a really nice accent, or black I guess.

my car will never see the track, its built to look good and go fast if i want it to.

Built not bought QFT! Why I have so much respect for Chris's car. It's all about the blood, sweat, and heartache lol

I'll post up a couple pics here in a bit of how she looks right now, or youll have to stop by when you get ur exhaust leak fixed... About to uninstall everything I put on to paint it all. Wish my powderbooth was here now.. soon hehehe

Nope, just grew tired of the SS, as surprising as that seems. The GF and I will be living together, and we only have one car, therefore its much easier and cheaper to run this then the SS. Its a fun little car to drive, and looks sharp. I don't regret it at all.

When I start my career once I finish school, and we're bringing in more income, I'll get a weekend toy, but for now this has to be it.

No problem Mike! Any time!

Wait... You're both trading in for the Cruze?

CobaltSC06 04-27-2011 12:20 AM

PM me on those CM springs while you're at it, I could even take the drive down and pick em up

murrant22 04-27-2011 02:58 PM

Mind you, I WAS FIRST THIS TIME haha.

I got Black Granite with the LT RS Package, taupe metallic grey looks great!

Nice job Stu!

big_stu 04-27-2011 08:14 PM

Hey guys. Thanks. Change of plans tho. Had the wife take it for a drive. She thought it was ok, but wants it loaded. I had a LT RS, looks like I may be getting the LTZ RS. I'll let people know about the springs and sway bars as soon as I can. Thanks

Stu

big_stu 04-28-2011 09:09 PM

Just ordered a IBM LT RS Cruze. Will be here next wednesday. Can't wait.

Stu

murrant22 04-28-2011 09:15 PM

Decided not to go with the LTZ? You'll love it, Stu. I love mine already.

big_stu 04-28-2011 09:29 PM

I had the LT for 3 days. Its no SS, but thats why i'm getting it. Its a lot of fun to drive! Decided to stick with the LT. Didn't want to pay the extra for leather, 9 speakers and a sunroof. Not worth it. Glad to hear you like it!

Stu
