A few updates
Wednesday, March 25, 2009 11:26 AM
Few updates on my car..New Enkei rs-5s, dropped on goldlines, addco swaybar, painted valve cover and I relocated my ecu, along with a little 55 shot of zex. Comments always welcome.
It's rainy/nasty out so i didn't get to do a photo shoot, so these will have to do for now. I know she's a little dirty.

I like the smple 5 spoke design of the rims, I'm not much for having flashy rims. I'm painting the fuel rail black next. I'm loving the stance, and the handling is amazing with the drop and sway bar.

Brandon - Haven't had a good shot of it yet, got it filled today and I'm getting a bottle heater tomorrow. I'll know then

02redbadged- I was rewiring my volt gauge, that is fixed now

CLC - Thanks! I think my front right has a slow leak, I'm gonna have to look at it closer here in a little bit.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I plan on doing some autocross this spring/summer. I should be picking up racing seats this week sometime.

got my bottle heater in tonight...wow..that is some fun stuff...traction kinda sucked because it was a little wet out, so i'm excited to see what it will do when it's dry.

Cav's really looking nice man. Keep up the good work. Whenever you are in town and want have a little run, give me a call maybe we can do a photo shoot afterward.

98z24ragtop - lol yeah NAAAWWZZ..fun stuff though...I'm likin the stance, gotta be careful with everything here in columbus though. I've always loved this style of rim, I think they like kind of cheap and generic in pictures, but look great on the car in person. I love the clean look with the stance and rims.

02cav- I just sanded sprayed some primer and normal spray can paint..doesn't get too hto so shouldn't be a problem..I thought it came out well though..

Terry- that'd be pretty sweet, I think it is next weekend actually.

In my head I think I keep going towards How I think a Cavalier SS should have looked stock. Maybe that's where my inspiration is coming from with the wheels, stance and other mods, I like kinda subtle mods, nothing really flashy. I had a kid come up today at the car wash and tell me he liked my cobalt...hahahaha...

I've also had a few people ask what it is and said they really liked it...kinda sad..only thing I've really done is remove the badges. It's nice to have people say they normally don't like cavy's but think mine looks good. Kind of makes it worth it. Again, thanks for the comments guys! I'll always take comments and criticism along with suggestions on what should come next.

I think I get paid that weekend so maybe we can meet up at bdubs or something.

You remember rob, guy with the 05 red SS/SC stage 2 cobalt here in town? He was telling me not to long ago that he raced some guy where he was stationed. Guy drove a Monte Carlo SS (not sure of the year) but when they came back around the guy looked at Rob and said "What the hell did you do to that Cavalier?" I honestly don't get the confusion as the two cars look nothing alike. It is good to hear you got some cavi-haters liking your car though. I had a kid ask me what mine was before I sold it. He was lost when I said just a cavalier.

Like I said keep up the work man, it's coming together nicely.
