I just did that as well to our 09 LS, luckily the wife hasn't noticed yet. 
However I have a feeling I may not get so lucky when I change out the muffler....
Also got to get them rally's painted so I can get them installed as well.

Understandable on that one, I wouldnt of done it if I hadnt already had the springs. Now I have the front SS/SC springs and my stock rear ones and have no use for them. Any one intrested in any springs?

Mike-
08-09 Cobalt SS/TC rear springs, GM Part# 25821162 (1" drop)
06-07 Cobalt SS/SC rear springs, GM Part # 10390024 (IIRC, 1 1/8" drop)
I got mine from GMParts Direct @ $31. ea. & I chose the SS/TC springs, since I haul stuff.
But ride quality is still smooth as stock..

I see you chose the 1" drop and mentioned you haul things...even without a load does it look completely level? I need to get a set of springs for my wife's '09 and this seems like a much less expensive route than the Gold Line leveling springs I installed on my '06.
Thanks for all of the info you have supplied! Things like this are the reasons I love this forum. I would not have thought of using these springs if not for you suggestions!

Thank you for your info, your HHR looks great. I love the Cobalt rims and 1/2 panel look... That's Ecl's AA5, & this IS his thread..
mine is a 08 White 2LT Panel, (look at my sig.)
I see you chose the 1" drop and mentioned you haul things...even without a load does it look completely level? Yes mine is level empty..(except) for some tools & stuff I carry above the spare tire..
I need to get a set of springs for my wife's '09 and this seems like a much less expensive route Using GM Cobalt rear springs should not affect warranty either..According to my Chevy Dealer.. than the Gold Line leveling springs I installed on my '06.
Are the goldlines falling out when your 06 gets lifted ?
