Today my buddy Matt woke me up at 10:40 by showing up at my house, and shortly thereafter we went to work hacking my car to pieces and rebuilding it a little bit cooler.

We started with the Centennial, CO chapter GM SMall Car Bash. Great turnout!

Then my car went through its Type R, weight reduction phase...I like this look, may get a clear hood:P

Well, it wasnt too long before I smashed my hand in a pair of pliers. Kinda hurt.

It's a Jeep thing...err something.

My cat soon conquered my passenger door.

Then Matt stole my camera and snuck off to snap some of his car...

Then it was back to work. And I was reassured, yet again, that working on my car, nothing with ever work/fit right the first time. So out came the dremel.

Well, we finally finished, and I think it turned out pretty sweet. So we cruised to a parking lot for a quick shoot before it got too dark. Enjoy!

also how did you guys go about removing your emblems and did you guys give those cars a new paintjob b/c their coats look flawless

the spoiler on my car ( the red one) is the rksport pro stock spoiler...and it is also the original paint from 1996...its just very well maintained and yes...its practically flawless...you can remove the emblems easily by heating them with either a heat gun or a hairdryer and then take a screwdriver ( be VERY VERY careful...this way is not recommended but its how i did mine and i didnt scratch the paint a single bit) or use strong fishing line and they will come right off...there will be a little glue stuff left on the car but goo gone will get that right off

I'm not a fan of vertical doors, but that's just me. :\

I do like that blue color on your car thou, that's a nice ass color for a cavalier. It goes well. Got a name or # for that color? I might get my car done.

You should get the cavalier rims too, they would go nice with the blue.
