my buddy has a 2.4 tvs sedan that's pretty sweet. He took time to build the engine properly and get it dialed in. He's had some luck getting into a couple of minor fender-benders, but it's a sweet ride.

Cut a **** ton of holes (which was very painful to do haha). Put the lip on and then attached it in the back with clips. There is a fantastic How-to on here if you want some pics and such.

Pretty good looking. Front bowtie is definitely unique

Here's the link: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-...-ss-na-116655/

And yeah, you do have to have a pretty steady hand cus if you don't cut the holes darn near perfect you can see them after you install the lip. It's really not all that hard. Just be patient with it and take your time.

Yep. I've got a spray gun and stuff but I'm not very good with it yet and I wanted to make sure the parts actually looked good so I took it to a body shop in town. Turned out great and couldn't be happeir with the color matching. White isn't too difficult usually but the guy at the body shop got it spot on.
