Looks good. I like the floor mats and the rims would look nicer if they were a bit bigger. Keep up the good work

Them seats covers were a pain. After 3 hours I just said screw it and left em how they were...ill get real seats eventually...but I want to replace all 4 so 1400 vs 50 well...I went the cheap route for now. I am going to redo the the rims red outline all the way to the edge, I pulled the tape off to early and paint came with it. The door panels are painted.

I bought a bunch of vinyl...but when it came down to it...painting was so much easier and cheaper. I just used the vinyl paint from pepboys. Most of the hours put into this was from taping everything off. I wanted to make sure I did it right and avoid having to redo it over...like I will with the rims.

I wont get SS/SC seats though...this was a LS cobalt and im not looking to make it into something its not. I just wanted to make it look nicer. So no SS/SC stuff will go in it...or MOMO seats...
