My friend did that. Doesn't look too bad. Make sure obciously you get the spray can stuff and be careful when putting your lug nuts back on. He got some under and while he was putting them on started taking all the plasti dip off. But yeah, its real easy to work with and doesn't take too long.

OK, so my opinion on everything is that coupes AND sedans look better wingless, but I do like that high rise sedan spoiler. I won't be getting anything, I was just posting that up for opinions and to I wanted to see if the seller would consider trading trunks....I highly doubt he would, but I would consider it if he said yes. Any idea if that high rise uses the same holes as the low profile stock spoiler?


Also, sedans are sexy...especially a wingless SS/TC (white is best).

the sedans low pro and high rise should be swap-able.

Makes me really want to swap the trunk with another sedan and then go pick up a high rise, but it would be a waste of money as I'm not big on appearance (and I'm pretty sure I won't be seeing fast enough speeds that a wing would be needed for any type of downforce).

In desperate need of help. Anyone on here change out their stock supercharger pulley and have it still in good condition? Mine isn't and I'm not getting a hub today so I need one that I could come pick up now. Thanks.

Lol. They have such a bad tuner. Seriously too. My friend owns the shop but I would never go there. Their tuner is the worst. I've heard horror stories. And the db part. I thought about going to them first and they said theyve never tuned a cobalt or redline. I heard their tuner is ok. But I got rsmotors working on my car now. If you check the evo forums you will find out quick thay Ron Is the best tuner around here and id the nicest with the best customer service.

In fact went out and personally bought hptuner for me. No charge for even licensing. Same for anyone that goes there until he has to get more credits.

well thats cuz HPT comes with 8 credits and it only costs 2 per cobalt....but Ya I'm not big on tuners in MN since I have never been tuned. I'm going to teach myself to do it. Hmm there should be a few stage 2 css or ions that could sell you a stock pulley. Maybe devin or ion06.
