Two Mods This Week

I drop my Cobalt off tomorrow morning at Panther to have my wheels customized.

The face of the stock wheel (the spokes) will be high polish aluminum and the inner hole area and back will be black. The opposite of eurochevy.

I ordered last Thursday the Ark grip catback exhaust system online and is scheduled to be installed next Saturday.

At the same time as the exhaust is going on I am having the car tuned and Dynoed.

Once I get the car back I will post picks and audio for all to hear. I am freaking totally excited to see it when its done.

Next-tinted windows lowering and some anzo headlites (black)

First things first.. You will LOVE the GRiP! I have it, and it is amazing. A+ product!

Second off, I would read this thread before you buy those headlights.

My New Custom Wheels are on and the car is at home.

Ok the wheels are done and they look amazing. Please let me know your thoughts. Cost was 890.00 canadian moosehead bucks. The pics are in my profile in a new album.

Yup thats it. first stripped them down to aluminum poilh the face and the gloss black the gaps and back. They also painted the inside of where the lugs are and the back of the riminside and the brakes as well.

I think I was bent over and this may be the only time i thank someone for it.

Panther does good work. We use them at our work sometimes, and have never had a problem.
