I'm new and want to show my car =)

[Corey]

Hey everyone! My name is Corey! I got my 04 aveo hatchback about a year ago and just starting working on it about 3 months ago! I have a low budget due to me being in college and not having much time to work... So I've had to get creative... lol

I'll tell you a bit about myself, I'm from Alabama and work with my dad in a 38 year old business called keenum kustom paint and restoration. We do a lot of hot rods, old muscle cars, tuners, anything! He has been teaching me for years and I am very into cars and simply love the aveo! Because of the fact that it is so different... I've been reading these forums since 4 months ago when I randomly decided one day to start fixing up my car! lol So enough talk I know you all wanna see the pictures =)

[XJCasper]

Looks like it's time to Bag that B....

[deniswhite1]

looks good for a callege guy, but if you have access to a hot rod shop this car should look way better

[Corey]

Thanks everybody =) Yeah, I know it has a lot of work to be done still, its got a few dents and that back bumper is pretty bad, but I have a new one at the shop in primer waiting to be painted, and I'm spot priming the car hopefully saturday, and then a week from saturday hopefully painting it candy apple red, and ordering a cf hood

[Corey]

OH! I forgot my under the hood detail! lol here it is

[tidus10]

not sure how i feel about the stars on the heat shield but whatever its your car..

nice veo m8, get that thing lowered tho!!

[LarsBud]

Looks alright, nice work and welcome.

[thehunterooo]

yeah the stars are uhhh, still nice, the engine looks real good

[Corey]

Hahaha funny story behind the stars... I was half asleep, and waiting for my buddy to get out of his class, so I was waiting at his house bored and decided to paint something with what I had leftover from the cam heads, and painted it black and decided it was a good place to put something and decided a star would be the easiest stencil to cut out, lol... It will be changed soon, Idk if you can tell in the picture but the paint is getting bad, it didn't have enough heat resistance... I'm going to do it black again and probably put a cooler design on it, the I took off the ugly decals today and will be putting it in primer and fixing the dents tomorrow, a week after i will be painting it metallic black and candy apple red two tone of some sort... I'm open to idea!! Orders new low profile tires today and they will be coming in Tuesday I believe, and I will be ordering new suspension to lower it... Or with the machinery I have at the shop I could pretty easily coil the springs tighter... Suggestions on that would be nice too =)
