8 bucks = free to me. 30 bucks is a bit high, but if I was in a pinch I'd pay.

Ex 5.0 enthusiast, new to Cobalt SS. Need some help with ID #'s

How's it going guys, Im new to the Cobalt SS as I just bought a 06. Love the little sucker and its torquey SC L4. Im seeking a liitle help with the letters and numbers etched into all the glass of the car, the numbers are YUL332771. Im wondering if all the Cobalts have this as my Cobalt is an export model for Canada , the read outs are in metric. Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Yeah, I live in Fresno, had several Fox body 5.0's, 85' 89' 90' 91' 93', All mildly modified. Back to the numbers etched into the glass of my cobalt, this numbers are also found on the head lamps lenses and some thought it was important to engrave them by hand with an electric engraver. Any thoughts on this is appreciated, as I have searched the net and still havent found any info on it.

Left some details out, the headlamps have the numbers etched just like the glass and some parts under the hood are hand engraved, like the valve cover and some plastics. Thanks again.

What do you guys do for your front plates here? I've seen some people use those Roush Hide Away brackets that they mount to the front lip, but was wondering what all the options are, if they even show theirs at all.
