I think it looks good. but i also think you need some sort of lip on the front. the intercooler looks weird hanging below the bumper like that. overall a nice car though. although i am biased to black.

Glad I could contribute to the nice appearance of your car! It's too bad the Sunfire bumper is so short so you can't hide the IC a bit more. Oh well...still nice and aggressive.

BTW...where'd you get your kit from?

the only way i can get it tucked up is by cutting the bumper support and i dont want to do that since i want the car to be kinda safe if i got into a small accident

could always have the IC be the one to take the hit, instead of the bar?

Your welcome man. Glad you finally got some good pics. Your stickers will be on the way as soon as I get my car back so i can go mail them.

And you'll have to talk to my girlfriend about having my kids She might not like that idea. LOL.

Looks a lot better with the intercooler painted. I'd still get a lip for it though. Something subtle nothing too flashy.

Anodized or painted? If painted, you've just lowered the efficiency of your IC.

it looks good but like ppl have said she need some kinda lip on the front

Looks WAY better black. I love it. It's not that noticeable now, very subtle. I'd just leave it like that. I like the little bit of intercooler peaking out the bottom of the bumper.

Looks VERY hot!

Love the turbo, drop, and rims. Your car looks so classy.

let me clear this up. Yes it is painted with a light coat of flat black radiator paint. Ryne told me that it wouldnt effect the efficiency on it. But none the less i love how it looks and still works to what it should.

Keep them coming.

Funny...mine's been painted for 2 years and it hasn't hurt anything.

Looks good bro.

My question is though, do they even make black intercoolers?

Its not going to hurt anything it just won't cool as well, but really for how much better it looks its worth it IMO.
