Hey guys, just joined the site and figured I'd throw a pic of my 2011 Malibu 1LT up. Black Granite Metallic with Ebony interior. I traded my '08 Cobalt in for it Friday, just got it back from getting tinted. Really love it, rides really good and with the 2.4 I am getting the same if not better MPGs then my 'balt was getting. Well here she is:

Nice Malibu, did you only get your side and rear windows tinted and what percent is that? Also some GM chrome door handles would really pop on your 'Bu on my Imperial Blue they look really nice. Darker the color car, better the chrome looks on it!

Thank you. Yeah, for now just the rear 3 windows are done 5% and a 20% brow on the front, going back next week for 50% on the driver and passenger windows. I'm not to found of chrome stuff, plus I think the chrome handles would take away from the metallic flake in the paint. I'm a color matched guy personally.

Well done. Great choice for the car! Makes me want to tint mine even more now. lol. Any other plans?

For right now I don't know. I'd like to find a LTZ exhaust to put on it. And thinking of getting a billet grille for the front and having it powder coated black or color matched, de-badging it. Heard the 2.4 doesn't like performance mods much so I guess I'll have to stick to appearance stuff.
