It was NOT recovered theft. The guy I bought this car from has his own shop in which he buys DAMAGED Cobalts and sometimes G5s and fixes them up. The G5 trunk is currently damaged, so he is trying to find another G5 off the auction so he can give me the trunk and use the rest for parts. The airbag just came in because it had to go through customs and all that since it was bought from Canada. Thats why I just got it. Chevy rims idc about since I just bought new ones. But no, all the Chevy parts on the car were/are temporary.

Some new mods I did today. Just added a shorty antenna from Ark performance, painted the door control things, and added a Xenon decal. I just bought brand new Nitto tires yesterday, so Im getting those installed with my 18' SS/SC wheels tomorrow.

Alright enough fussin' around
Got my SS wheels wrapped in 225/40/18 Nitto tires. I think it looks great.
Hmm, I think the rear might need a little lowering.

wow that is a sedan spoiler i think...
also im in the same place you are with my LT cobalt i need to lower the back but i dont know what spring to get, i dont want a huge drop... also the SS springs are 1" lower then the LT ones right so i may just find some of those here and put them on the rear and leave stock in the front so the car rides more level

Yeah Im gonna get a GT bumper soon with an aluminum upper and lower billet grille. Next spring is when Im gonna be getting the GT side skirts and the RK rear valance. And yes it is a sedan spoiler, but its temporary.
On the side note, lil update. G5 club decals came in.
