Cool Black 5 Speed LS Coupe - Fresh Meat!

Howdy, I'm new to the Cobalt world and this community so I figure it'd be proper to introduce myself. I'm JR., originally from Northern California (Humboldt County) now in Southern California (San Fernando Valley). Just got my black 06 LS Coupe two days ago! Minty fresh 1 owner car with just over 49,000 miles. Other than a couple cheap feeling parts (*cough dome light cough*) and the lack of an aux jack (), it's quite a nice little ride! Already blew past my first Mustang! I really missed having something with a man pedal... should be mandated in pretty much every vehicle, or an option at least.

Anyway where was I... oh yeah, well, you can get an idea of some of my past rides by taking a look at my sig. As you can see I'm a GM guy . Not much of a Ford fan at all but that's neither here nor there . Well... that's about all I can really think of for now. It's early in the AM and I'm getting tired so I guess I'll leave you guys and gals with some pics of my new little beaut. Oh, and if anyone in So Cal has any 'balt parts for sale (Yes, I will look in the appropriate section, but just putting it out there), namely an OEM SS exhaust, tinted tail lights (or film? not sure what route to take yet), blacked out headlight internals (or, again, film for them), drop springs, sway bars, or some nice/decent wheels/tires - These stockos don't have much grip to offer... LOL - comment or send me a PM .

Welcome to the family... VHT nightshade is your friend for tinting taillights. Lots of members take their headlights apart and paint the inside housing black. Lots of springs with varying drops/performance to choose from!

Enjoy your stay

Thanks for the warm welcomes!

TurboTechRacing why do you say Injen specifically? I've always been partial to K&N... is Injen better in this case?

Stealth-TC thanks for the tips!!
