Thanks a bunch! For the front and rear "aero", I designed the shapes I wanted in Illustrator and lasered the flat parts out of ABS ( I think) then used a heat bender to make the angled parts. Then just used machine screws to go through the body with nuts on the back side. The panels on the side...

Thanks. I knew I wanted a dual tip exhaust. It’s actually a jeep muffler. I had to get a new header cuz the old manifold was cracked, welded, and recracked. My buddy and I made the new pipe to run from the header to the muffler. Then made new tips to be symmetrical with the frame.

Thanks. The vents on the engine cover are inspired by the McLaren f1. I always loved those.

So here are some shots of my winter projects: Rear view camera screen sun shield Front brake scoops Rear “diffuser” to cover the subframe Side panels to keep debris out of the footwels Dashboard Bose speaker holder Rear wing made out the old cobalt wing. Designed and ordered uprights and wing...

Will do. I’ll post some shots today.

Haven't posted in a long time. Car is "done", registered, insured and back on the road for the spring. Have had a blast driving it around town, been to some cars n coffee, had some little issues and some bigger ones, but over all been a blast. some pics of the car and some little project parts...

ok. It's weird. Everything else seemed fine.

That makes sense for sure. Does the power steering have a fuse in the rear or some kind of element in the BCM? a relay maybe?

Cool. I'll try that. Thanks.

ok. I'll see what I can find. Thanks.

Hmmm. OK. I have definitely not got it wet so I don't think that's it. I'll check what codes I have and start there.

So the other day, I took the car out for a drive and all seemed perfect. I came home for about an hour and went back out but it felt like had lost power steering. The steering just felt heavy. Before I start taking off all the body panels, are there any obvious places to start checking for problems?

Ah. Good idea. I'll try that.

ok cool. We did that and I bought a little hand pump to make it a little easier. I'll keep doing it the normal way and see if it changes anything.

I've got a pretty soft brake pedal feel and a friend said I probably need to bleed my master cylinder. I've been looking online about how to do it and most of them say to do a bench bleed. Is there a way to bleed my master while still on the car?

Switching the two wires isn't going to fix it. Chevy changed the fuel sender between 2005 Cobalts and 2006. Are you running a 2006 fuel sensor & pump in a 2005 donor car? You might want to grab your old 2005 sensor, and install it, or buy a universal fuel sender with the correct resistance and...

ok. good to know. Thank you.

It's a fuel line from ACE. Is that maybe not good enough?

OK awesome. I'll be surgical. Thanks.

Howdy friends. Updates and new questions. My dad and I did the alignment and it's 1000% better! We pulled the fuel pump out to see if there was a float issue and we found the fuel pump had become sort of disassembled. The two rods that run up through the springs had pulled out of the plastic...
