unsure of the wheels, but I know for fact i've seen them in a magazine before, but I have waaaaaaaaayyyyyyy too many magazines (avid subscriber to Super Street, Sport Compact Car, Import Tuner and Turbo since '01, and I also pick up copies of Performance Auto & Sound, D-Sport, and Modified just about every month) to flip through to find them. The hood however, is the "Extractor" hood on Cobalt Addiction's website. I believe its the most expensive hood on the site however.

I saw the ad today for the wheels I was thinking of. They look just like the Azul Speedstars, but after checking Azul Wheel's website (http://www.azulwheels.com/), I found that they aren't available in our bolt pattern, so i'm still stumped.

That is SEMA's cobalt. That is the Itrenz extractor hood. Its CF. You can get it on Cobalt Addiction.
The body kit is the BC2. The rims are Luff S5R Rims. they come in black, silver, and bronze/gold. They were custom drilled for the 5 x 110 pattern.

Not True. The RKSport is the most expensive

Ah! Thats what they are, b/c I originally looked at getting those wheels in silver for my car way back when I bought it!!!! Its all coming back to me now, as those wheels (in gold) are pictured in Luff's ad on a dark blue Scion TC. Suprisingly enough, my friend Brett (whos overseas in the Navy right now) is putting the BC2 (Buddy Club 2) bodykit on, as well as some 19" silver Luff SR5 wheels on when he comes back. Lucky bastard and his normal lug pattern.

Good point on the hood price. As Dane Cook would say "iiiiiiiiiiiiii'm dumb".

lol, EVERY WHEEL I originally wanted has no bolt pattern for the 'balt. They include: 19x7.5 Falken Circuit Specs, 19x8 Petrol Octanes, 18x7.5 Axis Reverbs, 19x8 Axis Decades, and of course the Luff's. Owell, my crazy looking Enkei WDMs will suffice until I can either afford some custom HRE's or find a 19" wheel I actually like that'll fit.

You can always custom drill your rims. Get a professional to do it, or get them special ordered that way. I want Volk TE-37s or something by Volk, I will have to have custom drilled rims.

I'm considering doing that actually. I haven't even got the wheels I ordered yet, but i'm already planning ahead, lol. Ideally I want 19"s, so i'm probally gonna buy either 19" Petrol Octanes or 19" Falken Circuit Specs. Either that or get some custom made HRE's. Would you happen to know how much it costs to get wheels re-drilled/filled?

yeah, I looked for those, and even checked Enkei's own website, and I could never find them in the 5x110 pattern. I know some guys mentioned some place called "Street Dreams", but I only buy wheels from large reputable vendors, such as Wheelsnext, Wheelmax, Wheel's Boutique, Tire Rack and Discount Tire Direct. The fact that people have found EVO5's in 5x110, and yet Enkei's own website shows no such wheel exists is somewhat sketchy to me.

I actually don't. I'm not quite sure of the whole process that has to be done. if your local mechanic can do it or if you ahve to order them as so. I want 19's as well. Volk TE-37's.

Volks eh? Going the JDM route on a Cobalt? lol, j/k. I would actually love some Japanese goodness on my balt too......I love the 19" 5-zigen Hyper 5ZRs in chrome. But too pricey for me.
