did you notice that the Voltz two tone is all paint not paint and plastic.take a look the pic shows that the grey is shinny and reflective and smooth not ruff.

dang it i got ripped off!! oh well at least mines plastic so if it gets scratched i wont cry to hard....

lol.yea your right i already have a little chunk taken out of my rear bumber. oh well.

i actually like the two-tone, plasticy look of regular vibes... it makes it look less like a car and more like an SUV... and that's what I'm shooting for...

I still want a set of those folding mirrors! I have a set of side repeaters (the one on the rear of the fender near the door) Just waiting for spring to install them.

Good eye! I've seen that pic several times but never noticed that the bottom portion was painted and not plastic!It looks good IMO but I still prefer my plastic because they don't as scratched up as painted ones do.

I'm thinking about repainting my fascia glossy grey like that since the guy that repaired my rear bumper spray painted it gray instead of getting atwo toned bumper!!!You can't really tell when its dry but when it rains it gets like 30 shades darker than the rest of the grey.

That's one thing I always liked about the Voltz. I wonder if that's just shadow monotone cladding on there? I would have loved to have some satellite cladding on my car, that would have been purdy!

tnpartsguy - your talking about the blinkers on the front fenders? yea those would be cool, odd that we dont have them on ours...but folding/heated mirrors would make my year!!

The ones from the 1st year Aveo are the right color, size, and shape.

All kiinds of color combinations are possible if you want to paint your cladding

someone had fun with photoshop

Black and red looks cool... I wonder what silver and lava would look like?My cladding has a fair amount of reflectiveness... (see my sig) its only when you get right up close you see the orange peal effect.Oh wait... that's the entire factory paint job. --Edit-- Oh, duh. I see what you're trying to say. The two town wasn't just the plastic... (slap forehead).

those markers on the finders dont look as good as a smaller one or one that is flush with the finder ex. like the Lamborghini Murcielago has
