Damn! I know what you mean! I need to wipe mine down once a week. Try using window cleaner then polish it with a chamois cloth after you clean it. It may help keep the streaks from re-appearing.
what did you do to your Sonic today?

I use a foam for my windshied and get no streaks. I think it is without alcohol so it doesn't harm my tint on my windshield. Probably cleaning in the shade is best for no streaks.

I should also add: Do not spray directly onto the windshield. Spray onto the cloth you're using first, then wipe the windshield clean.
You don't want any sort of non-plastic cleaner getting into your dash. It'll strip all the protective chemicals off of the dash and it'll degrade faster as a result.

Previous mods include amp and speaker upgrade, k&n drop in air filter, trifecta tune, and last night I dipped the bow ties black, thinking about doing the rims next. What do you guys think about chrome lug nuts and black rims?
Plan on installing an injen sri tonight mainly for the sound, and zzp cat back soon.

I put on my Sonic 2 vinyl. I also washed and detailed my sonic in the dark.

I made a 3" downpipe and flex pipe

If you were to make and sell these, about how much $?

To be honest, I don't think I have the time to do it, nor the patience to interact with customers. From a price breakdown, the parts aren't that expensive - but the "labor rate" I would have to charge to do them would be $$$.
Priced from Jeg's:
3" 30/180 mandrel bent SS pipe - $75
3" x 10" SS Flex joint (could probably get away with a shorter one) - $78
SS Flanges - $20
SS O2 bungs - $30
So roughly $200 in parts alone, not including the time to build a new jig/fixture, source pre-bent pipe, find reliable sources and the time to hand-build each one.
ZZP sells this similar setup for the Cruze in 2.5" for $499; while this looks like a potential profit of $300/ea if I were to build them, It would probably average out to about $75 / hour of my time. That sounds like a lot - if I were making enough systems to work full time - but I get so busy at my regular job that I would rather have the time off than the extra money.
This is not to say that I wouldn't be happy to help a local person build one for their own car, but I would do that for free.

Birthday gifts! Headlight Armor and sonic license plate covers.
Has anyone Changed their headlights? I'm looking to make mine brighter. Are there bulbs i can buy that will fit in the current housings? And, I was online and fell in love with the oracle Halo HID lights, but a little bit out of my budget right now.
And I'm not a huge fan of the stock taillights. Any suggestions for that?
thanks for the help!!!

Replied to your thread.
