I know it's no Cobalt, but here's my ride.

Hey all, here are a few pictures of my '01 cavalier, it's got custom black paint with money green flake, and it's punisher themed.

















The green flake comes out a little in this pic.. nice sunny day ^^^^



most everything in the trunk is grabber green now, the trunk sill, and the speaker grill, etc, also upgraded to an audiobahn sub.

No offense guy, cause that is just not my style or taste....but rice comes to mind immediately, sorry if this makes you angry, but a 5" tip....come on man, you could shoot a cat out of that exhaust. The paint color is tight though, dont really think you should have put the punisher symbol in the back seat like that. And are those rims Konig's?

Edit, sorry saw that the rims are MSR, not digging those as well, but kudos to your body kit fitting properly and painted well, that is nice work.

How does everyone get that its rice? that kinda pisses me off, if it was rice id have a gigantic wing and stuff like that, and if i was comin in sayin i had an 8 second quarter mile, and i didnt know crap about cars, then maybe it would be rice, but, it's clean and i dont try to drive it like it's an EVO or something, so i think you're wrong

welcome to the site bro! i like it... do you have any performance mods? or just apearance... under the hood looks pretty stock to me... personally, that big ass exhaust tip is a little bit too much for my liking... but i like the overall theme, and the paint looks good!

Full custom exhaust is the only performance mod, i plan on buying a cobalt ss/sc next fall, so ive pretty much quit spending money on the cavy.. that's why i joined up here. LoL

You guys are going to get spanked by Louisville, and If I were you I would get rid of those rims, I think a better set of polished rims would compliment the car much more. the whole Konig Unknown thing is just I dont know, played out. I think a set of Thick 5 spoked 18 or 19's would do better. JMHO

i feel your pain...it does suck do have people talk **** about your hard work...but then again, i have always told people not to ask me for my opinion if they're not prepared for my answer. you take a risk when you post "creations." either you show no one, and never get let down, or you post pics on a forum, and possibly get some less than desirable criticism. all that really matters is that you are happy with the final product. do not get upset over others' comments, taste is a matter of personal opinion. I'm sure most of us can appreciate what you've done to your car visually...it definitely does not have a "do it yourself" look to it. i like the body kit and the paint. i also think the punisher theme flows well, but i probably would have gone with a blood red or at least a darker green. a wing isn't the only thing that screams "rice." if that was the case, our ss/sc's would be lightyears ahead of your cavalier in that department. i also must agree; however, that the 5" tip is a bit much. I believe pipes that big belong on diesels...that's it. when it comes to exhaust tips, there's a fine line between sporty and ridiculous, and in this case, i think a 4" tip would have done justice...if not 3" dual outlet or something. In any case, good job overall, and have fun modding...cuz that's what it's all about...do what makes YOU happy.

Haha, I know #4 is sooooo much worse then #21. And what big teams do you all play this year, hmmmmmm, none. Louisville is way better then anyone you all have played or will play so quit being sour because we are sooo much better then you guys this year. Your lucky we didn't get a chance to play you all or you would have a whole lot more to bitch about. We will see the rankings at the end of the year and next year will just be even better!
