BUT OTHER THAN THAT JUST GETTING TO KNOW PPL ON HERE TO HELP ME OUT WITH MY CAR AND STUFF..[/SIZE][/SIZE]

 

first thing to do is debage everything! Welcome...

 

 

debadging?? i like debadging but i dont think i would like mine debadged..
i have seen something i do wanna do tho.. have any of you seen how to new camaros have that ss in the front grill? i was thinking of putting one of those on my grill and putting the red overlays inside all my ss badges.?? what do you guys think?

whats wrong with the caps?? haha

 

I have not seen a plastic intake pipe in years......

 

Parents really do give their kids anything nowadays, eh?

 

haha not completely true..

 

its an 05 so im sure it wasnt too expensive...

op, welcome!

 

trust me debadging will make it look a whole lot different, and yeah you could do the SS on the grill.

 

HOLY CRAP YOU ARE EXCITED!!! jk welcome

 

i got it from chevy for 12,500 and payments at 250.. so its not bad at all..

and should i debadge all around or just the sides??
hey and ive seen ppl have like brackets for their license plate to put it lower but how do you cover up the holes???

 

some people use plugs and paint them.

 

where can you find the brackets?? ebay?

 

The 05 badges look like teh gay so I say debadge the rear and move the side badges down to the 06+ spot, and be done with the badges.

 

how many miles?

 

i been wanting to do that forever too. drop my badges down to the bottom..
when i debadge will it leave any old prints of the badges..
and i got it with 52k miles..

 

id still de-badge

 

nah look in the how to section, it shows you how to do it and get everything off.
you paid 12500 for an 05 with 52k? seems kinda high.
i paid 14300 for an 07 with 15k and a stage 2 kit. but the dealer didnt know it had a stage 2 kit. neither did i til people said i shouldnt be beating sti's stock lol

 

it seems a little too high. I paid 11k for and 05 with stage 2 and 32,000 miles.

 

Debadge, Lowering springs, Spoiler delete, Niteshade tails, Rims,
Exhaust, Turbo conversion, CAI, Mounts.
Done.

 

i paid $20,000 for an 06 with 0 miles on it. i think that was too high

 

ill look at that... thanks.
im really wanting to put that ss in the front grill tho..
i seen it on a cobalt and it looked sick.. especially with the red overlay inside..


anyone have any other cheap mods i can do??
i did that airbox mod yesterday and after i went to go put gas and punched it..
i peeled out for a bit but i heard that supercharger whining like crazy.. it was tight

i definetely want lowering springs cuz i hate stock height..
im planning to get my rims painted for now too until i get some rims.
have any of you seen the falken hanabi bronze rims? i want those.
but for now im thinking of painting my stocks gloss black, but then im wondering how it would look with a dark bronze.
any advice??

 

52k. dude i jus traded my 07 one for an 08 tc and only had to pay a 3000 diff. and it had under a thousand and the dealer took my silver one and i think he sold it but it had 26k and he sold it for jus 14 grand. and it had an intake on it already and i bitched the dealership saying there was a noise in my supercharger so they put a new one in lol but yea.

 

nice car dude. looks real good but that scrape is a killer.
