    This is why we cant have nice things, A build thread

    So I just started my modding journey. Guess ill post here so you can watch my descent to madness.

    First mod: K&N SRI Painted Black

    I plan on painting the cover over the turbo the same color as the intake as I have leftover engine paint.


    Second Mod's: Rear diffuser and Grafxwerks Trunk overlay





    Future mods: Trifecta tune on its way. Some sort of striping on the sides (maybe matte black with Cruze cut out) Tint on windows, rear factory style spoiler.

    The car is beautiful.

    It reminds me slightly of a mullet (and I mean this in the best possible way).

    Business in the front, party in the back.

    Carry on.

    LOL, as long as it's a he-mullet and not a she-mullet!


    Might go to a few shops around here and get details on how much itd be to get some stripes on the lower side body with a cruze cutout. Thinking matte black but ill have to see some samples at what I like. Gotta be ready for the Lordstown meet in the spring with an awesome cruze

    Thanks for the compliments everyone!
