i got them from a now-defunct company called StreetStyleCustoms or something like that: they went under a few months ago -- before I show it this summer I'm going to make all the blue writing into red and have the aluminum powdercoated black to match the fuel rail cover. going for a black and red 'vader' type color scheme

thanks a bunch! it's been kind of a long but VERY fun process getting her all together -- half the fun is driving it at its limits to test the parts functionality and reliability

thanks... the drop looks great but honestly if the road gets bumpy the ride turns shitty... knowing that would i still do it again?

hell yes!

I got it from a friend (he had it ordered from a dealer: costed around 80 dollars), and the CF cover I got from eBay: that costed around 20-30 dollars

Thanks, Marin! Definitely been a 'labor of love' -- not to be cliche', but this has been an amazing build. I grew up on V8's (Skylarks, Chevelles, Novas, etc--anything that could smoke a mustang), so this is my first time working with a 4-cylinder car. Chevy has done nothing but impress the crap out of me with the Cobalt.
