First car yo.

Yep this is my G5. It was bought off the auction for 77 hundred, with 20k miles, Pionner system and all that. Problem is, I have a Cobalt steering wheel, Cobalt trunk lid, and Cobalt hubcaps because I still gotta wait for all that stuff in the mail. I just got 30% tints all around, and Im gonna get the windshield done soon too. Also I took off those ugly door moldings.

Future mods for it:
CCFL Halos w/7000k hid.
Fog lights with 7000k hid.
Fog light inserts.
18' Cobalt SS wheels. (Idk what tires to get yet.)
Hood gap delete.

Took a recent pic today. Got the top of the windshield done for free and I took off the door moldings. I just ordered SS wheels and I gotta get some tires.

You might be able to adjust the hood gap by just turning the little black knobby guys under the hood.

Needs some springs big time and you'd be set.

that only changes the height between the hood and fenders. the hood gap hes talking about is the spacing between the hood and the upper grill insert. which is fixed by iserting something between the foam absorber and the bumper beam to raise the middle up.

Took a couple quick shots of my new stuff I got today. My Pontiac airbag finally came in, and so did my decals. My rims also came in today too, pics will be up later for that though.

So let me get this straight? The car came with the Cobalt trunk, the "Chevrolet" airbag, and Cobalt rims? Definitely a recovered theft or reconstruction.

ANyways, looks nice regardless though. What SS wheels did you get?
