Those are the worst rims in the entire world, and you need to lose the css.net sticker on the front grille. The site's not that much to brag about...

Besides that, it really does look pretty good, and you're on a great path performance wise. I also dig the heritage fender stripes.

There's nothing, and I mean NOTHING "heritage" about wannabe Grand Sport stripes on a Cobalt, and a base model at that.

If you're going to think about it that way, then those stripes don't even belong on C4 Corvette Grand Sports, and should be reserved for the old racers. What's the fun in that? It's just a nice little nod to Chevy heritage. Looks decent too.

lol i doubt anyone will buy the parts, most likely i will have them up to the point when i decide to do something diffrent, and even then i doubt it will sell, if it does than thats cool, most likely i see these parts decorating my garage when im doen with them, kinda like all the other parts that sit on that wall
