The car came like that, haven't had the car for that long yet. The door handle is actually came like that. It was some fake chrome package, chevy did.

It was my first sticker I ever put on my car. Felt good putting it on, even though I messed it up and the "Y" is gone....

Never really noticed all that. Thanks for input. Gotta figure out hot to get the crome off without getting new handles. Stripe, it's been growing on me. Feel like it kinda sets me apart from regular 2.2's. College student budget.

i hear ya on the college student budget. Best bet is to check the classifieds a lot. Bunch of good parts come up for sale all the time and they arent wanting much at all.

Just new handles from a wreckers, black or color match, and tons of 2.2s have that dealer applied stripe

Good idea. I barely see any cobalts in my area. Seriously all I see is STI's, EVO's. S2000's, and a lot of regular cars. I need to find a junk yard.

good drop same as above with strips,molding,and handles.
you need some more low though.my car is on dropzones 1 finger gap in front and 2 finger gap in the rear. thats about as low as you can go without cutting or spending a grand on coilover but to each their own.
Nice car though always wanted black but got red.

Thanks man, I was expecting lower, I got them done a day ago. Will it get lower as time goes by? I have 2 fingers on the front and back. I took this picture sitting on the ground on my very uneven driveway back home.

Oh man 4 times, I hope that didn't cause any natural disasters or hurt anyone. Looks like we are all screwed because 4 times. If you didn't notice I said I was new to doing forums, so when I posted those deadly 4 threads that you are bitching about. I posted them in different sections not knowing it was a bad thing, since I was reaching out to multiple people.

The day I took this picture it was the day I got them installed, will the car get any lower? I don't mind if they do since where I live at now has cobble stone roads and potholes.
