Cobalt SS Hitch

I'm planning on getting a hitch, mostly for a bike rack purpose. I could get it either for my Cobalt SS TC 2008 or for my fiance's Civic Sedan 2009.

Here's my point:
I would much rather have it on my car, because whenever we go somewhere on vacation or for a bike ride I enjoy driving my car better then her's, especially on longer rides! However, as mine's a sport car, the looks of a hitch would kinda ruin the car's style, or somewhat. So then I'm thinking I'd rather it being on the civic!

Does anyone have a clear picture of how their hitch looks on their Cobalt? I'd like to see pictures of SS's with such a hitch. If we barely see anything when the rack is and it does not sacrifice the look I'll probably be looking at something similar. If I really don't like the Civic will most likely have it!

Thanks for your pictures/comments.

SS trailor hitch

I have a hitch I'll sell ya. The hitch is pretty new and was never actually used although it was installed. I took it off because I'm going to Autox the car and it is not easily removed and reinstalled. It weighs about 38 lbs and is wide so it goes where the side frame rail area support will handle the load. This area includes above the rear muffler so you have to angle it in/out. Not suitable for quick on and off even though it's only four bolts. If interested I'll shoot a photo. The hitch itself is not noticeable once installed since it fits under and several inches short of the rear bumber. Sounds weird but it's not. Let me know. $100 plus shipping. I pd $200 plus installation within the last month.
