First Mod?

Basically, to give you a short story, im 16 with a small paycheck and just got my 07 Black Cobalt coupe LS, and im interested in doing a little bit with it.

We bought it from a great family friend who owns a dealership about 1hr 30 min away, and he's being very generous in offering just about any mod they can do at only the cost price to them. I don't want to do anything too extreme with this car though, because i really want to trade in this one for an SS/SC 3-4 years down the road.

So, my question to you guys is, what should i do first? I was thinking getting it lowered, and also the factory 18" wheels, possibly a wing. Any suggestions?

No wing plz

Intakes are good, you'll need the K&N because you have SAI

They cant lower it for you since GM does not make aftermarket springs....you might be able to get the wheels via chevy and the wing too...but i would go with gm intake or gm exhaust

I do not think gm will put a typhoon on a chevy..I think they would most likely have to give him the gm performance intake..i think they actually work for 07's

Yeah, you won't be able to get the ss/sc rims or even the ss 17's. Get the GM intake and exhaust like everyone is saying, and you'll be set
