Hello from Wisconsin

New here to the forums. Went from driving a 1998 Pontiac Sunfire (didn't look too bad):


To a 2005 Cobalt SS/SC:



This car is great! I remember back in 2005 using this exact same car in NFS:MW! I've loved these cars ever since and I can finally say (10 years later) that I own one! Very excited for this car. I'm going to do some cosmetic changes first to it since I'm on a limited budget, but after summer hits and College is over, I can start adding real power . Car just hit 100,000 miles.

Welcome and congrats on your purchase! You made a perfect choice, your Cobalt looks great!

What mods exactly are you planning to do to it?

As of right now just cosmetic mods such as adding some black accents to the car. Already ordered new halo headlights and LED taillights. This summer when I am working full time I would like to install a full cat back exhaust system, cold air intake, and possibly swap a smaller pulley on the supercharger. And if anybody knows of someone with a carbon fiber hood hit me up And hope to see some of the fellow Wisconsinites at Automotion 2015!

I actually took my Cobalt to Mequon today for Furous 7... I live in Milwaukee, but am often in the Mequon/Grafton area since my friend lives around there.

Sounds like we should meet at Highland House some Tuesday this summer.

Just got really lucky today and scored a set of Motegi FF7's for only $150. I will need adapters though. Bolt patterns on the rim are 5x100 and 5x114. They do look great on the car though, and the tires for the new ones are the same as the stock SS rims!



When I got them, I didn't know what size they were. So I tried fitting it on my car. It fit in the 5X114 spot but was not center at all haha. At least got to see what it would look like.
