Looks like they're out of stock at the moment. I'd shoot them an email or call if you wanna order, their site can be screwy sometimes.

Had a nice little day at the junkyard today! Finally found a pair of matching black interior door panels!!!
And got around to putting in my black rear head rests!
Grabbed a set of G5 GT gauges, for ***** and gigs. I think I'm going to do up my SS/NA one's in LED's while these are in.
As you can see, the steering wheel still fits all funky. I took everything off and tried to get it to line up right, but I really think there's something wrong with this wheel. The leather feels soooo good though compared to the base model plastic crap. You can tell in the other photos how weird it sits too, comparatively to the air bag.
The gold trim pieces got old fast, so I picked up a set of clean light silver ones (my stock were the dark grey). I think it looks so much cleaner now!
Ordered a set of retros from one of the guys on facebook the other day, those should be here within the week! I'm excited!

So I finally went through and brought the exhaust up with hose clamps like Mike suggested. Didn't raise it a ton, but enough where I noticed less scrapes. Big news for the past week has been my new headlights!
I bought a pair of custom retro's used off a guy on facebook. Morimoto H1 projectors, blacked out housings, and blue halos. I had a hell of a time getting them wired correctly, but mostly because I hate and suck at wiring. They're in now and I really need some good pictures! I have a few, but need to get some of the light output on the projectors.

Love this build
I've done a thing or two to my DD cobalt but I'm now ready to go "full bolt on" like you seem to have done and I've got some questions about your 2.4L intake mani. Did you have any tuning issues? Does the 2.4 throttle body plug and go with the 2.2L harness? I was planning to go with a header/dp combo and cat back from ZZP and they sell a 2.0L throttle body to 2.4L intake manifold spacer/adapter. Would it be worth it to run a 2.0 throttle body on a 2.4 intake mani all bolted to a 2.2 motor lol.
