Hey man, car looks good.
Could you take a pic of the whole front of your car?
I've been debating about plastidipping my headlight chrome, but I feel like it would make the car look "less mean" if that makes sense...

to me, chrome is the enemy! lol I hate it. I only left it on the badges for some accent.

Ouch, chrome the enemy? This is a sign that I'm getting old

Thanks man, I like it.

I hate chrome too, with my black sedan, I have blue bowties, and I want to change the grill surround to blue as well, and prob black on the fog light chrome and headlights.

No, it just comes down to personal preference. A lot of people still love chrome. But I just think it's too flashy. I love all blacked out cars. Or a dark grey.

That's awesome. But don't forget to cover up your radiator. You do not want to get any dip on it. Best bet, put cardboard behind the grill or just take it off. and if you do the headlights make sure you do the whole plastic part so it matches. That's what I did.

I have a Cyber Grey sonic so I like the chrome on it. At some point I'd like to add chrome wheels or chrome wheels with black accents. I think it would help add to that touring look I like. I'm a little older, not that it matters really, but I don't want my ride to look like a tuner. May even add a rack at some point. Not chrome of course haha

I liked the brightness of my chrome, but not the light silver color. I tinted my chrome black and love it. It's not blacked out, it's shiny like metal, but darker.

yea the cyber grey is nice. Like I said, it always comes down to personal preference. I'm also getting a rack soon. I need it for the winter when I go snowboarding. But I also have a truck for that. lol Guess 4x4 is better. But the sonic looks sexy with a rack and faring.

That's cool. I guess I'd be ok with something like that. But I like matte finishes better. I was thinking of getting a paint job done. Might go matte white with a matte black hood and roof. That'll look nice? lol

So true, the Sonic does look good with a rack. I cycle and there's no way my bike is fitting in that little car. Yes, you have the advantage of a 4x4 and the sonic doesn't seem like the best snow vehicle.

It is far from being good in the winter. I slid during the winter the one time. Thought I saw my life flash before my eyes.
Jersey winters are horrible sometimes.
Yea, you def. need a rack if you cycle. or you can get the rear rack that attaches to the bumper. That would probably be best for you. I always rent bikes when I go Mtn. riding. No point in owning one for me. I have to drive out to PA to do it anyway. That's a 1 1/2 hr drive.

Bro, I appreciate the worry, but I've been around cars and paint and tractors and .... my whole life.

This is my page, check out our work so far.
We're still getting started, but we're working with dipyourcar.com to become a dealer/reseller for plastidip.

Nice. Good luck. I have seen a few of the videos. How much would you charge to dip the car? I've been thinking of going with white and a black roof or gunmetal grey.

So the exhaust came in today! Hopefully will have it on by the end of next week!

 

[ChevySonic]

The exhaust is in! Sounds beautiful! I'll post a video asap. Just broke it in on a long ride on rt 80 on my way home installing it.

2012 Chevy Sonic with Borla Exhaust - YouTube

just a cold start. I'll probably end up making another one and one while driving.

 

[Insanika]

I can't deny I love the Borla sound..


I'd like to request a drive-by.

lol.. to me, Borla has the best sounding exhaust. I will try to put up another video by the end of the week.

I've been in love since I saw this video:

Nice. It sounds good. Except its on a Toyota. Lol

 

[Insanika]

Well I was wanting it for my Vibe which was the same thing. Excited to see your other videos. You might be the Dark Side.
