Default Another new guy, that's in need of help!

What's up guys, my name is Matt, (obviously) im 17 here in a couple weeks, and I have a 2008 Cobalt LT, white. I'm still in high school, but have a good job that makes quite a bit, so I'm gunna dump some cash into my Cobalt, and that's where you guys come in . Its completely stock right now, doesn't have a spoiler, (put one on?) getting the windows tinted, and of course I have to get wheels at sometime. What are some suggestions of things to do to my ride that will make it look sharp? I'm looking to make the interior very nice as well, putting in my audio stuff from my other car (which broke down) so thats done, but like gauges, paint the trim, stuff like that. Suggestions? Your help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks guys
Matt.

wellcome to CCF Matt. a good first mod list would be tint your tail, paint your headlights, debadge everything, shorty antenna, and then springs.

Car is debadged already (day i got it home lol)
wheels will run me about 1,000 with tires and all that stuff im guessing?
My car is white, so I can run any color I want for the interior trim, what should i go with, I've seen the red and blue pics in another topic, I'm still undecided. and also, how do you take all of the interior trim off? how much stuff do i have to rip out to get it off, or does it just pop off? i dont want to break anything lol

look at rota wheels. get your style on. look at coilovers if you got cash to blow. lowering springs will only do so much and you'll need to spend money on struts so that'll run you like 500 bucks anyway. for another 300 you can get megan coilovers which i highly reccomend. any questions ask away!
