I may have to see if joe lets me use his buffer to get them back to the stock "sheen"
do u remember what my tails look like? before and after? they went from black as night to almost stock looking, i left a nice hue on them cause o the sexy factor! so i can do w/e you want, either look like mine, which i suggest or back to stock.

Derek I have 17x7 or 8 I don't remember but I'm running 225's up front. I'm thinking that the fe1 front bar and end links don't mix well with the fe5 struts

Hey guys I've been out of the Cobalt scene for a long time now, but I lurk around here a lot. I was wondering if there are any HP Tuners around our area that can tune more than just Cobalts?

Even less chance of a rain now... Rain over night, and then starting again tomorrow evening.

If it's nice, I'll be there early, around noon. I got places to be back in Chicago at 6.

I figure out my handling issues. So when you switch to FE5 front struts you NEED FE5 endlinks. FE1 endlinks are 11.80" center to center. FE5 endlinks are 9.86" center to center. The swaybar itself is the same minus the Diameter. So basically i may as well not even have my endlinks on cause they arent doing anything. Going to pick the FE5 ones up in a little bit and hopefully thats most of my issue.

That was it. The SS/TC endlinks fixed the issue. Car drives beautifully now.

I have never seen the track prepped so poorly, and that is saying something for GLD, since even on good days they aren't really prepped. They obv planning on it raining and them not being open.

Let's just leave it at that. Even though spinning all through first and second was sorta fun. haha.
