i like the drop, wingless, and the black rims.
i dont like the stripes or the no exhaust tip
what mods are done to it?
i also think you should debadge the rest of the car, get black headlights, tint the tail lights and tint the windows... just my opinion though

the taillights are tinted. and i am tinting the windows soon. the reason for the no exhaust tip is because i hate the look of a "fart can". but i agree i need to do something with it. thanks

mods are in my sig

and i am debadging the rest tomarrow actually. lol

i say black headlight housings and a muffler...look up magnaflows on ebay. there are plenty of available mufflers on there that don't look like fart cans

thats my favorite color Cobalt though...would definitely go that route if I had one.

you're goin in the right direction, and ya i noticed the tails after i posted. the outsides would look better a lil darker, but i understand if the cops a dicks about it in your area. i also hate the look of the fart can so i have a magnaflow muffler and a 4" magnaflow tip (looks like stock but a lil bigger)

believe it or not the outside taillights are just as dark as the inside ones. its the way the lights hitting it i think.

and blazin i just might have to do that with the exhaust tip. i'll just have to find the stock muffler. lol

I have the same color with the same sort of theme. Except I went with a single stripe and extended it across the hood. The other difference between yours and mine is I made the angle of the stripe parallel the seam where the bumper meets the fender so it all flows together a bit more. I do like the wingless lid and black rims though.

wow awesome. i'm glad to see the everyone seems to like the car. it is lowered on zenn springs. i think they are the lowest riding springs offered. and they actuall ride really nice. this thing is my pride and joy. i prolly should have taken some under the hood pics to. painted blower and its so clean. i am thinking about having a custom paint job done on the valve cover this winter. who knows. thanks for all your opinions. keep em coming. i'm at work right now so when i get home tonight i will try to post them in my gallary.
