i would have waited to post pictures until it was clean...
Yeah, I live in the country. I could wash it but it would be dirty again b4 I got home. LOL Plus I work nights and sleep during most of the day so I don't have the time to wash it a lot of the time.
Here is a BEFORE picture. Best I could find.
some reason it doesn't look lower.. looks much better.
what was the drop on those springs?
like 1.3-1.5 inches?

About 1.3. You can see it better in more of a side by side. I'll post it up.
Here is the side by side. AFTER/BEFORE:
The front is a little bit lower but the rear is deffinately lower.
just looks even.. like it should look.
very good stance.
idk why that's not the stock height.
perfect
Looks great!!

the springs will settle & drop a liiiiittttllleeee bit more if they've never been installed before.
Pretty cool. I've driven one of these before and I enjoyed it...haha love that supercharger shriek.
looks good you should lower it next
A set of 18's would make it look really good.

...ok.
Looks good. Id go wing-less
1 of 1,165 Black SS/SC's made in 2006LSJ!!
The wheels go very well with the car
Got a MINI?Don't talk to me.
FUCK your FADS
Saturn must've done a good job then...they're factory wheels!
Looks much better...
i hear those are great cars! gonna be hard to find a set of wheels.. id say something 18"
Yeah, I'll prolly hold on to the factory "Competition" wheels for a little while until I can afford some 18 inch wheels. Prolly something black or a really dark gunmetal. Somebody mentioned I should lower it now....... IT IS LOWERED, DUMBASS. lol
i dont think black...i thin u should get aluminum..black wheels kill it for me..
Aluminum would look good too. As long as it doesn't have a polished lip I'm sure I like it. Somebody mentioned bronze wheels but I'm not sure how that would look. I'd have to see some photoshop work to really choose.
put some CCW's on it and you will be set!
hey man i have a fujita f5 intake off an sssc balt for 100. and the 42lbs injector with the stage two pully for 150
How long can you hold on to all of that? I'm strapped for cash right now but will definately take them off your hands in like a month. Is the intake off of a Cobalt or an ION Redline? If it is off the Cobalt it may not work due to the difference in the engine bay between the Balt and the Redline. The pulley and injectors I definately want. Let me know.
MathewAPM: You got a pic of those CCW's. I'd like to see what you mean.
Yes I do, one second
The Ion and Cobalt posted are on stock suspension but you get the idea
Ok, wow, I like that. I might have to look into those when I get the chance. Thanks, man.
I will talk to phoenix performance tomorrow and see if they have a set for sale from there Cobalt (the yellow one).
I know they have both silver and black with a silver lip. LMK
Unfortunately I won't have the money for them for a LONG time. Wish I could get them right away but won't be able to anytime soon.
