Not sure what I think about the whole setup. It seems a little... off to me.

The drop will probably change my opinion

Nice work.

Edit: The pieces above the windows, did you put them there or did they come like that on your car?

They're "window louvers" or "rain guards". They're aftermarket.

Looking very good! It's subtle and clean which I totally dig! My only suggestions would be to paint the outer mirrors and door handles, add some Z24 side skirts to go with the GT front bumper better and lower it and you'll have one (even) sexier Sunfire Sedan there ! Keep it up!

Vent shades, window louvers, rain guards... all the same thing .

I forgot to mention, I think you should remove the side moldings as well. It's a major pain in the ass, but it will be well worth it in the end. It will make the car look so much cleaner and it will also make washing and waxing a whole lot easier.

trust me i thought of it... but after i took off the sunfire badges i realized that it had been painted before... and underneath is a whole different colour... it sucks... if you catch it in the right light... or any light for that matter you can see it... i tryed compounding it to kinda blend it in... but that just made it worse... whoever painted the car left everything on and just sprayed... thats the only reason the side moldings are still on...

as for future upgrades... i want a 95-99 z24 rear bumper and some z24 side skirts...

one quick question... will my exhaust still line up alright it i put the z24 rear bumper on?... or will it look off?...

sorry for the double post... just thought you guys would like to see...

went from this...



to this...



i think it looks a hell of a lot better... definitely getting there... still some things i wanna do... but all in all its coming along nicely i think...

Well, that definitely sucks big time about the paint under the side moldings . The exhaust should line up fine with the Z24 rear bumper. I believe the exhausts on all Cavaliers and Sunfires (minus the Sunfire GTs) mount in the same place and all, so it should be fine.

It is definitely coming along great. Keep it up !

Did your friend spray paint her tail lights flat black? Because it damn sure looks like it.

Looks pretty good, your car that is.
