Congrats, make sure the youngin grows up to be a Chevy fan!
I havn't purchased them yet but I would like them to be welded on if possible so that I do not risk m doors flying off. Thats fine I get more weekdays off than weekends anways.


Congrats on the kid!

Newbalt: Sorry I didn't get back with you yesterday. I was slammed with **** from school that I had been putting off. And don't worry about the BADMAB decals, I'll get them to everyone next time I'm up there. Or I'll hopefully see everyone at the big meet on the 26th.

Talked to Kory today and he said if it was direct bolt in made specifically for the Cobalt he would install them for $250-350 depending on how long it takes for fine adjustments. If it was weld on it would all depend on the kit, how well it fit on mock up, how much custom fab, if he has to reinforce areas, ect. He told me to post up his info and he said yeah he does work on weekends.

Here is the shop info:

Metal Worx INC.
Kory Bertsch
Chad Bertsch
5674 Shipman Rd.
Hope Mills, NC 28348
910-438-9353
910-916-7555
Metalworxinc@embarqmail.com
www.metalworxinc.net

Since you havent gotten the kit yet I suggest you let him get a kit and install it for a lump sum, not only because it will be much more simple but because he would know what would work and what wouldnt. He told me to have you call him on a week day between 10-5.

im very close lol but not for long i graduate in dec/jan time. the school is hassling me about the official date. anyway.

apartments. you want brentwood, river park or willow creek for parties. they are within 15 min of school with traffic and are reasonably priced. if your over 21 you can try talbert woods which is even closer to the school also its gated.

work is VERY hard to come by plain and simple the school says they help pffff yea right.

you are allowed to work on you car at school and on open shop days every 3 weeks at school for free just bring what you need to get it done for the most part. somethings they allow you to use but its not much. any other questions pm me.

I have a question for you guys!

I am prolly going to become a Trifecta dealer? Which opens up all sorts of new fields... especially all of our 2.2 owners in here.

If there is a big enough market for it... I'll go ahead and do it... if not I may just wait untill I have a bit more money!
