The Black/Pink SS Sedan

[htown2200]

Hey whatup guys! Well I recently bought a black '07 SS sedan for my wife. We did a few little mods lol. I think its turning out nice and she really loves it. She's proud of it. I'm proud of it. There are a lot more mods in store in the next few days. We are putting it in a car show next weekend.

So far the mods are...
cold air intake
custom strut bar
painted valve cover
custom coil cover
painted ecu cover
chrome oil cap
chrome brake fluid cap
black housing headlights
painted interior dash
painted center caps
painted front bowtie

Next on the immediate list is...
Tenzo-R springs
Black SS rims
painted calipers
tinted taillights
painted rear bowtie
custom chrome strut covers
custom chrome wiper fluid cap

and i think we'll have a pretty fun car to take to car shows LOL

In a few months we might go with...
Header
downpipe
exhaust
rear sway bar
audio/visual mods

(on a sidenote, my red 2.2 has become second fiddle to this car lol. i am probably going to trade in the 2.2 for a turbo cobalt in a year or so.)

Engine looks cool for a girly car. Interior not digging so much.


I think that the first time I've seen the interior of a balt and damn they sure did keep alot from the ION's

u should go in with pink touch up paint and pink the "ecotec" on the valve cover...and the fuse box cover...

^yeah that would look sweet. i had a similar idea. i was going to paint the valve cover pink first, and then cover it with the black. then sand off the black on the part that says 'ecotec vvt.' but i was too lazy to do it LOL. but touch up paint would do the trick. i'll look into it.

be careful with going crazy with the pink... cousins friend did a pink and silver deal.. she went a little crazy and it looked tacky

welcome and nice

Lol Well Im thinking I might change my idea to go from red to pink lol I think it looks wicked good work

 

[AAS G5]

Yes dont go overboard then it looks tacky. Just some accent color looks good.

 

[htown2200]

i feel u. that is all the pink its going to get, except for the rear bowtie.that is still stock gold color and will be painted. from here, we are going to start blacking out a few things. it'll be 90% black 10% pink

After the car show I might convince her to let me repaint some of the pink things to black, because I will have to drive this car sometimes hahaha.

 

[htown2200]

i'm going for a dark red look. i dont want to make them too black.

kinda like this...

very nicely done...

just an opinion but black center caps on the rims and pink bowtie... possibly black ss badge on the side w/ pink stroke around the edge..!

 

[jmarie]

we had a set of 17's on the car and that is exactly what we did with the centercaps. then we bought a set of black 18's this weekend and i planned to swap out the centercaps. but they arent interchangeable so we just used the caps the way they came with the rims.
