Well first of all, I would like to say thanks to the JBO. Over the last 4.5 years I've owned a '95 Cavalier that I wanted to do some work to, but never really had the money to do so. I started a well paying job last year and finally had the money, but the ol' Cavi was up to almost 300k kms. So I decided to buy a fully loaded '03 and start fresh. The thanks is for all the information I've quietly gathered in the background here. I haven't been posting much, but I have learned tonnes.
This is my car. Bought in March, I designed this thing from stock to what it is today. The paint is Lexus Artic White, the rims are 18" Motegi SX5s, the bumpers are Evo 5 and the sides are BC2. I have audio and some ICE, but there is still a tonne of work to be done (mainly the Air ride and re-wrapping the racing seats and rear seats in black leather). A couple weekends ago, after only having the car on the road for 8 days, I took 3rd place for 2000+up at Scrape By the Lake in St. Cathrines.
glad we could help
My car may run 18s, but I can do your taxes in 10 seconds flat.
JBO lube - they would never have enough in stock and we'd never see RodimusPrime again
Very nice. I like everything but the tail lights.
congratulations, you are the only person ever to make that bumper look good. The paint looks amazing. Its really different from most of the 2 tones on here. wheres your liscense plate
damn man that looks good, nice job
diggin it. good choice of pinstripe color too, works well
wow you make that front bumper look good im not a huge fan of it but DAMN.... i like the paint job too
I like the paint, i actually like the rims, which is surprising because I hate chrome. The one thing I dont like is the choice of front and rear bumpers. They are definately unique though, which is what Im sure you were going for.
sweet paint, ugly body kit. That paint job on a different kit would make it one of my favorites on here, but as it is now, it looks like a Lego car.
yes man... im booked to get that very kit... lol even to the same side skirts so im glad i have another example of what it looks like.... mine you your paint will blow mine away but whatever it looks great. you will find (as you probably already have) that not too many on here like the evo 5 kit but i love it and im sure you do too so screw the haters..
lol
well car looks great and that 5th pic will be my desktop background
Very nice. looks clean. i like the Hood prop.
99z for 2015.. I'm back bitches
Just don't like the front bumper, but love the paint..
And ZOMG I see some assssss, more pics of those please!! MKAYTHANKS.!

front bumper leaves much to be desired, it makes the car look like a train.
but other than that it looks pretty well built. good job.
wow I love your car man! lookin good. the pic with the girs, i like the probe in the background( i used to have one). the blonde is really hot and the girl in the middle has a fantastic ass
paint the handles...drop it(if you havn't?).....'n ur done~
I like the fact you took a paint design that's different...very nice choice. ALso, NEVER liked the front ...but works well w/ your paint and body lines.
congrats on the nice car man...and I LOVE the fact its "DIFFERENT" then the rest~
The only downside to that front is the random bulge between to the two sides of the front.. I never understood the reason to put it there.. ..perhaps a plate mount or something?
I really love the paint choice and scheme until it waves down the quater panels. I would have loved to see the sharp straight line arc up to the rear C pillars and wrap across the trunk.
One suggestion you might hear often and with good merit is to change up your plans with the rear tails. Converting to pre-03 tails would really clean up the rear of the car. Should you not want to repaint, the RK sport carbon fibre bezal is your friend. Otherwise, the way you painted them does wonders compared to stock. Oooooo, paint the silver bow-tie thing on the tails blue! Doooooo eeeeettttt.
Regardless, the exexuction and crisp-ness is very nice. Once its slammed, it'll be complete.
Great work on the paint, looks flawless. The bumper isnt everyone's favorite, but you did a good job with it. I agree with Kevin on the tails, but to each his own. And definitely lower it. That will bring it all together.
i hate that kit.
but it looks damned good on your car! keep it up man its lookin pretty sweet
Awesome paint, ugly kit....With the RAZZI kit or another your car would of been big titties!
Like the rims but not a fan of anything else other than those hot asses,but each to his own

hahah thanks for the comment folks., some real positive, constructive criticism, which is always nice to have.
I will be slamming it in the spring (Easystreet air ride most likely), and there is a lot of work to do over the winter.
The tails will most likely stay, just cause I dont mind them and I want to keep this car a little unique, everyone has done the pre 03 swap.
I didnt realize how many people dont like the Evo 5 kit. As soon as I bought the car I though 'yay I can get big effing fog lights now' hahah. I love that kit (and I love how the exhaust keeps the rear end tight).
Again, thanks.
MMMMM......donkers for the win....and the car looks good, I'm not a fan of the bumpers but you made it work good. Cant wait for some pics on air ride
Seems like a love it or hate it kind of car... Very nice, glad to see someone getting the opportunity to do up a car the way THEY like it. Im still waiting for the funds to do mine!
Hot car, humble owner. Toejam and Earl would be damn proud.
