Over the winter I decided to do my car up and make it into something that i could be proud of instead of a stock Sunfire. This is my first car I've done and i think it came out pretty good. Everyone that has seen it so far like it alot, mostly because of the blue. This is what i come up with. I've had it out of the paint booth now for about a week and im slowly starting to put it back together and get the little things fixed. and Yes i did everything myself including painting it.
Beginning of winter this is what it looked like.
After everything was said and done.
These are the rims i got for it, need to buy tires for the other 2 yet.
List of mods i did over the winter if someone wants to know are:
Class Glass Performance Turbo Sport Hood
Wings West Front Lip
Type-J side skirts
RK Sport Streetfire rear
Shave handles, locks, antenna, wing, inside of the door jams, and gas door
Sparco Fuel Door mounted on top of quarter panel
painted 2 tone with Viper Blue Pearl and Granada Black Mica
I know i know it needs lowered badly. Next week im getting Koni Reds and Ground control coilovers for her and the rims will be on so it will look 100% better.
I dislike:
- The hood design
- fenders
- tails
- lack of door piece for the skirts
Everything else is kosher, nice job, man.
HUGE improvement!!!!Nice ride

yea the tails need painted yet and i dont know if im keepin them yet. i have a custom made trunk bezel that i need finished yet. the door moldings i have but i dont know if i wanna use them yet or not, just something about them.
y would u relocate the gas door to just there. you should of just shaved it to somewhere else. other than that. i love what u have done
i frenched it and its completely shaved, let me dig a picture of it up and ill show you.
i love the blue with the black top, thats hot. not to sure on the gas relocation, but props for doing it. over all, nice work.
BIKER COPS CAN BE SUCH D!CKS AT TIMES (X2)
Looks sick! I love it, get those rims mounted, at least one side for the pics. I agree, get the door strikes on, but other than that it looks awesome!!!

DAMN SON, Those are some BIG shorts man! They are damn near hitting your ankles bro! They make it looks like you got your legs cut off at the knees, lmao!
Anyways, sick fire bro! Not digging the paint of the hood, but everything else looks real nice!
lol i know . i normaly dont wear them that low but yea wel lol i cant stand wearing short/knee high shorts for some reason just annoys me.
No lie bro that car looks so sexy even with the steelies on
Keep up the great work man, you make us fire owners proud!
5 seconds to find another street...
hmmm sides go great with the lip.. great job man. get those rims on
Rims definately make a car and those ruin the car.
Hood is iffy, rest looks great
Put the door strikes on
Get rid of those tails
im thinkin of gettin the rims powder coated black with a polish lip. Thanks for the comments guys
Need the strikes on. But nice work.. Love the blue.
i like it, especially what you did with the gas door. its original and i think your fire pulls it off well. those tails don't look good on any fire, i think a set of stock tails that are tinted with nightshades would look a heck of a lot better.
keep up the good work
i like it overall but i would change 2 things. the location of the gas cap and the line for the 2 tone. the black should of carried a little more to the front of the car imo

yeah i agree.. whats up with the line near the mirrors, that just doesnt look right at all, it needed to come down and be straight, although i hate how this is done as theres no body line to make it look good right there, but it would look better than would you did.
i do give you props on the car, you've done one hell of a job, the paint looks really good. i love that front lip-never seen it before, it is the sex for sure.
i agree with everybody about the tails, they gotta go man, your car is to sexy for those riced out lookin POS tails.
i actually like the hood... lol good job man.
Looks good......but yes the black should have been a little more towards the front
i dont mind the tails i think the car looks sick.. only think i would add are the door trim for the type j
