for the headlights? or the spark plug cover? here is a link to the headlight how to https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/show...ght=headlights

as far as the spark plug cover goes... take off the 4 bolts, clean the spark plug cover, tape off the areas you don't want to paint, and then prime/paint your way to a kick ass cover

Yup, same thing as me. Looks awesome against my orange. I also sprayed the entire sidemarker lense so you can't see it. Looks great.
