Installed my Powell stage 1 mounts and washed her. Makes a quite noticeable difference without any extra vibrations.

Doing many things today. Hoping to finish a couple sets of headlight covers all while making a fuel rail cover mold.

Got on it a bit today. I just hope that the guy testing driving a black camaro didn't change his mind about it :/

It was probably a 2012 RS. Piece of cake.

With enough fabrication anything is possible.

But looking at how the rail cover mounts to the top part of the valve cover no, not without some mounting brackets.

Yeah I'm trying to figure out how to make it work. I don't want it using the valve cover bolts in case it would cause a leak. It could probably bolt to the intake manifold though. My mold is done. I've sanded a pair of headlight covers with 240. Taking a break. Then hitting them with 400 and above



Also made a prototype mirror delete for 07blackg5 to see

Yeah to be honest work had gotten in the way. But I'm starting to adapt the "idgaf" method and not stay late anymore. Nothing I do is good enough lol. If I thought there was enough interest in the cobalt community I would probably make a lot more stuff. I have got a couple PMs but that's it. But I may move on to camaro/mustang and nova/old car parts.

But then once you have peoples attention you have to sell it for $5 shipped, because Cobalt people are usually cheap as hell.

Yeah that's my problem. There are carbon radiator covers for nova/chevelle/camaro listed for $250 plus shipping. I know I could make a profit selling them for $150. If it was a complete cobalt carbon fiber body I'd be lucky to get $200

With the frequency that small companies walk off with our money here, I wouldn't prepay a dime.

Thanks, they're FC04As by Fast Wheels in 18x9 with a +40 offset. I really like them, they're different from what a lot of people usually put on Cobalts.

I wouldn't trust a carbon body with my life. I also have NO intention of making one lol. I also don't take prepayments. I have a credit card and a decent paying job. I don't have to burden other people with my financial problems.
