Cars bone stock, but i did change out the antenna. Mods for the summer will be Tint and Injen CAI. Being a college student sux when it comes to modding

 

Looking good. Being in college does suck ass when trying to mod. I've managed to gather enough money for my CAI, halos, and a GMPP exhaust.

 

Where'd you get your antenna? Looks like one of the nicest ones I've seen. Don't see many "normal" ones around.
Oh yeah, the car looks really nice. I really hope for '08 they change the grille from the louvers to a mesh of some kind. That's the only thing I really don't like about the design of our cars. Especially on the black ones, the plastic fins don't even match the paint. Looks real cheap IMO.

that's the antenna. i actually get BETTER reception with it, go figure.

 

sweet car man take care of the black paint!!!

 

yeah tell me about it, i got the car used with 12,500 miles on it and the previous owners didn't do ****. so now i'm gonna have to get a porter cable and take all the swirls out.

 

Ha, it could be worse. Looks fine in the pics. At least you didn't have a construction company get white epoxy overspray on your car (while it was parked in a college student parking lot), then have the const. company send you to some hack who tried to claybar it off, scratching the hell out of the paint, and after about two trips to the Chevy body shop, still not have it in the condition it was when you bought it. (Do you sense a little bitterness?) Finally I think the dealership is going to repaint the worst scratched body panels, but its been a few months of pain for me everytime I wash it. I just can't wait until summer when I can detail it myself and do it right. It is very difficult to find someone that knows how to detail a black car. Not even the Chevy dealership can do it!?!?

 

i don't let anyone touch my car but me. Good luck with your car though N8

I cut a deal with my pops, he'll fork out the money for the PC 7424 w/ pads and for a full set of Z-AINO a as long as i detail my moms new 300c

 

That is generally my attitude as well, but I knew that the amount of polishing/sanding required to get the epoxy off would most likely damage the clearcoat, and I wanted some kind of warranty or a new paint job, that's why I took it to the dealer bodyshop.

Hopefully by summer break all will be fixed, and I can put some red stripes on this bad boy and post up some pics for everyone. I don't believe I've seen any yet w/ that color combo. I'm also going to do the Meguiar's swirl remover on the whole car once I get it back from the dealer.

 

crakajap what part of nor cal are you in?

 

lol dude you asked me this same question on yourcobalt. Lincoln,CA

 

ah lol i cant remember what thread it was in. You should check out our meets sometime man. Car looks nice, brings back memories of when my car used to look like that hehe

 

haha you guys at least have better jobs, im a high school student and can barly pay off my car, but i manage to save like 20 bucks a week for mods, haha, my dad gets so mad when i walk out with 600 bucks sometimes

 

I will as soon as I can. I never get weekends off and that's when i make all my money so i'd have to plan it.

 

cobalt looks really clean

 

I'm already thinking about trading it in for an SS/SC. We'll see. I made a mistake getting an auto ss/na

 

lol you know i have a little fix it ticket (tint) that needs to be signed off.. we should hook up and swap cars and license plates for a few hours

 

you actually got pulled over for a fix it ticket? i never got pulled over with my old car, and i had 20% all around. Oh well, Cali is too strict

 

lookin goood

 

sorry to hijack the thread but...beck you're back on .net!!! haha i thought u were gone for good

nice choice of car cracka..i got the same one

 

lol dude my balt is a cop magnet.

 

I know the feeling, i had 20% tint, a cannon ball muffler, and decals on the side for my old car clubs. I got pulled over for other ****, just never for tint. But that was up in WA, CA is completely different.

Hey Beck i think you said you go to Sierra right? I've yet to see your car there yet.

 

i only go on thursday nights. I'll be there a lot more during the fall.

 

Looking great man! I've got the EXACT same one. lol. Except my mods are antenna removed, Kenwood headunit w/ dash kit, DC Sports strut bar, Sylvania Silverstar lighting, blue neon in trunk, and blue underdash neons. Getting intake and tint over summer too. I can't wait! Keep it up man!
