dude?

You put the high rise on your last Cobalt - and for me at least, the high rise really grew on me;
why would you go low-rise?

Firstly, the car is OMG orange and stands out a lot more; and I like the flexibility of being able to switch between the two. It's just temporary until I decide if I want to find a wingless trunk or get a Tjin one.

Attempting to plasti-dip and this is NOT going well. Might be able to salvage it but... there's a first time for everything I guess.

Yeah I went there first. Then I realized that Joel had done the Evo mod with plasti-dip so he'd know where to find it: it was at Home Hardware. They only had 2 cans of black which isn't going to be enough... I might get them all on but they'll need another coat I think.

Thankfully you're right. Look a lot better after the last coat.
