First thing I would do, is get get an Eibach Pro-kit on it, or something similar, and a Wheel upgrade, like 17's or 18's. That alone will make your car look completely different.

Yea i was thinking that too but where is the best place to get a wheel and tire package that isn't going to put me in debt for a year? And the best place to get an Eibach pro-kit? I'm from Columbus Nebraska and theres not too many j-bodies around here that arent stock so im trying to be different and get people to take a second look as i drive by.

Look in the classifieds for the Pro-Kit, someone has a set for sale in there right now. As far as wheel/tire package, sites vary, and ppl's opinions vary. tirerack.com is a good spot to look. But some of your best deals can come from ppl right here in the JBO. Check out the regional forums for your area. Local ppl usually sell a lot of stuff in there. Also check the classifieds.

I agree, but you forgot one thing: shaved spoiler!

One thing you can do that is pretty much free is remove the side moldings, "Sunfire" badges and the "arrowhead" badge on the front bumper. Just get some fishing line, cut a piece and work it back and forth behind the badge / molding in a "sawing" motion until the badge / molding comes off. Then use some WD 40 to remove the left over adhesive. It is a major PITA to remove all the left over adhesive, but it will give you a cleaner look and it will make washing and waxing a lot easier.

If you have any more questions or need any other ideas, feel free to email me anytime: j_to_envy@yahoo.com.

Here's my ride! Suspension is something i want to do so you might consider doing the suspension unless you want to save up for it. Removing the side moldings is a good mod
I went wheels, tint, and then cd player.
maybe an new bumper with a paint job. Also some kickers 6.5s to go with my kenwood cd player.

Nope the Cavalier trunks won't fit on the 2dr coupe Sunfires. You may could find another Sunfire couple with the spoilerless trunklid (some came stock that way) in a junkyard, and swap that trunklid onto yours, and have it painted along with the trunk filler panel.
