Sorry on the late replies.. The system is around 2000-2500 bucks, plus your install straight from easy street..

Your ability to go through turns fast is amazing with 9-way dampening struts all around.. its way better than stock.. and your ability to launch is better as well, as the amount of wheel hop is drastically reduced..

No I cannot drive with it that low, unless im just driving straight

Remedy one, your car looks amazing man, I feel proud in saying that your choice in rims inspired me.. I wanted to be the first one with a black balt, with black rc2 rims with a chrome lip.. The rim looks so sick on our cars.. I love you car man.. Thanks for the compliments though all.

here's a few other pics from shows..

The only problems i've had with the easy street kit is one of the shocks blew (NOT THE BAG!, the PISTON)

The 3/8" is great, any larger and your going to screw something up when dropping it or raising it, its alreayd a pain in the ass to get it to the correct ride height, any faster and i'd shoot myself..

Viair 480's would be nice.. I have two 380's and they work alright.. The digital controller is very nice, as tank pressure, voltage, and individual bag pressure is all displayed in one spot instead of on 3 gauges in your dash..

I love the easy street kit.. they designed it properly and I have no complaints thus far..

Hey SSteveSC what in the world is that green on your car? Is that coming from the paint or from something else? Cause I absolutely love how that color is looking...

No Problem man. I didn't think I would inspire anyone at all, so I'm proud to accept your compliment in that manner. I don't take compliments lightly. Thank you. As far as being the first one with these rims on a black Balt, you may have to have that discussion with Mike (DoubleLP)
I think you actually had your before him though. I sold mine to him a few months back. Click the link.. https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/featured-car-showcase-74/doublelps-october-fcotm-submission-130265/

Thanks Gestapo007. Wanted to be different. The concept Camaro SS inspired me to do so. It only had stripes on the hood and I like the way it looked. I cut and trimmed the vinyl and applied them myself.

probably not the right tread for this, but I was looking for a grill similar to what you have on there so I can yank the plastic stock one off. Where did you get the grill, or the material to make it?

It's the new grills off of an ss/tc. You can get them at chevy dealers or online at CED.
