Cobalt SS Wing on a Cruze!!

Well yesterday we had the spoiler laying around, decided to hold it up to the trunk on my buddy's cruze. Ended up looking good so we went for it...

Here is the stock look (LT RS)

Holes after they were drilled

After rounding out the drilled holes and painting the exposed areas to avoid rusting, it was time to put it on...

BAM!!!!! I love it

Looks better than I expected. I think the high rise is more boxy looking and fits the cruze better than a low rise would.

He should debadge the trunk. The wing definitely looks better on the back of the cruze then a cobalt.

Now the other spoiler needs to come off of it. I think that would really help the look of it some.

No. I think wings look like crap on the cobalt. The only wing I'd consider is the rk sport lip(? Think that's the name) on blazin07's car

his is not rksport, is a molded lip if im not mistaken, so is all one piece with the trunk.

and i wonder.... how that cruze lip will look on the cobalt....will it match the curve of the cobalt trunk.... hmmmmm photoshop????

It will not. The Cruze trunk is curved and longer while the cobalt's is not. Which is what made it difficult to measure for the wing
