[VforVIBE]

nice color, and mods planned?

[mastamatt16]

pretty nice vibeany aftermarket ideas yet?

[ajflan]

I like that color.

[kevera]

wuhoo for the purple people eater.

[northvibe]

nice pic and I love that color vibe! +1 to any mods?

[melders]

that thing looks great! love the color

[Mr. Joe]

Again.. awesome color. That was my first choice, but couldn't find a model within 100 miles that fit my budget. Nice rims, but I would worry about them with the roads around here.

[Sublimewind]

I LOVE THAT COLOR....Reminds me of my Subaru in World Rally Blue... Love it...

[Sublimewind]

I hope you don't mind, but i found and LOVE this pic...It almost looks like a brochure picture... I thought others would like....

[Sublimewind]

Did i mention i REALLY like that color..Welcome BTW, it always seems i forget to say welcome FIRST...

[4X4CHICHI]

Welcome, I love that color, Too bad they will never make a GT that color. That would be hot.

[moongdss]

Sweet ride and welcome! You take sexy pics of your car

[WaveAction]

welcome man..picking my wave blue vibe up next week just gotta finish the paper work and we're all good to go..all i got was the power package..wanted the up graded speaker system like what you got but they didnt have any..so i went with the basic sound system..which i dont care about

[waveresponder]

dont mind at all...lol...yah thats one of my favorite pics so far that ive taken..ill be experimenting with my camera and a few others at that spot if i can borrow them..all my pictures have been taken with my personal camera so far....Pentax Optio WPi 6.0 megapixel digital camera..it doesnt capture the color as good as some other cameras seem to but it does ok...thanks for telling me you like that pic so much..maybe ill send it to Pontiac or something..haha and it could make its way into an actual article?

[waveresponder]

thanks..yah i wanna get new rims and wheels...tint the windows...window vents or whatever you call em...and hood deflector....lol

[waveresponder]

thanks..i wanna tint the windows...get new wheels and rims...led underbody maybe...and window vents, and hood deflector so far...lol...your vibe gives me ideas!

[waveresponder]

thanks ajflan!

[waveresponder]

how dare you call the Pimpmobile...purple!....Lol

[waveresponder]

thanks...yah i try my best to take the sexiest pics possible...lol

[waveresponder]

yah i know..i really wanted to buy a GT...who knows..they are supposed to be due for a redesign!

[waveresponder]

yah i did search within 250 miles..and there were only three with side airbags and color wave..the one i bought was the cheapest of the three...you can always upgrade the sound system later if you feel like it....im thinking of adding some bass to the system..lol....get some pics up soooon!

[Toasted7]

Welcome... those are some killer pics! Might have to see if I can take some of those of my Vibe as well. Great color... let the modding begin! Would suggest tinting the windows first, probably one of the least expensive things to do that will make the biggest difference visually... then wheels of course (but those cost a little more)

[waveresponder]

so what rims should i get... http://forums.genvibe.com/zeropost?cmd=fshow&id=4

[ajflan]

I think that gold or bronze would look good with that blue. You also can't go wrong with a classic 5-spoke design.

[WaveAction]

see..he thinks like me..lol..im doing like a subie look..already did a few photoshops of my car with different rims

[ArcsVibe]

Nice looking Vibe there I love your sig by the way, super nice picture!

[waveresponder]

soooo i should be replacing my stock horn this coming Tuesday ...pics of what i ordered below...

[waveresponder]

look at what i found at WALMART...lol...allows me to show dedication to GENVIBE....lol

[waveresponder]

so i mounted the speaker....didnt mount the power airhorn yet..it says i should mount it to metal so the heat dissipates..and not to mount it under the hood so it cant get hot or wet..lol...so im thinking under the drivers seat...any thoughts how i should do that?.....also i put 3 switches in my console down by the cupholders..and one hole for another switch that im going to make the master...for my emergency lights..ill put pics up soon..

[waveresponder]

pics of installation so far...

[Sublimewind]

Does or Mr.Whelan know yet that you bought HIS speaker??????? You may want to consult him on possible copyright infringment....Be warned, with that placement of that speaker, you might be asking for trouble with snow and ice... I don't totaly get the mounting bracket... does it allow it to pivot or something?? It looks like you might want to flip it, so any water will run out and off of it, rather than INTO it.... Something to consider... Looking good so far...!!

[waveresponder]

so i finally bought a through the glass scanner antenna.....and i thought it be cool to put relflective tape on the roof rails

[MRCN RCE]

i don't think i've seen a vibe with reflective rails. if i planned on keepin the rails, i'd consider that. good call on that one

[waveresponder]

ha..yah thanks..i was thinking bout putting maybe a genvibe decal, Firefighter-EMT, FIRE-EMS, or something like that on the rails too but i dunno yet...

[18stars]

Waveresponder: You have some really nice and artful photos which reminded me that my father you to always take his cars over to Ott's "Mountain of Mums" on route 29 in Schwenksville and take pictures of them. He always timed it for when the place was closed so that the lot would be empty and he could park in front of the mums. It made for nice photos. Anyhow, I think you're fairly close to Ott's and if you haven't taken any pictures there it might be worth checking out....

[waveresponder]

18 stars! cant believe theres actually someone on Genvibe from my area...lol....thanks for the suggestion...i almost forgot about the mums...its been awhile since ive been past there....last time i was up there it was with the fire company walking up and down the street checking meter boxes house by house cuz of a huge power surge...i believe it was the 4th of July...lol..ill def have to take some pics there!

[waveresponder]

ok so i installed the power supply and did all the wiring with much help from my dad last night...really 2 nights ago now...lol...i love the sound of it....and now all that i have left in store for the "pimpmobile" as of now...-mount my mini lightbar to the crossrails when i recieve them "thanks to another Genvibe Member...-install the crossrails-mount the 4 grill lights on my front license plates..(2 facing forward, 2 mounted on each side for intersection clearing)-finish the wiring to the other 2 switches (one for minibar, one for remaining 4 lightheads)-order the parts for the center console outlet...and finally do that lil mod-schedule an appointment for getting my windows tinted (32%, not until my next paycheck, 2 weeks!) then start saving up for- new rims,tires-CAI-and whatever else comes to mind...lol

[waveresponder]

so far what else has come to mind...lol..-led 3rd brake light-replace license plate lights with whiter ones-interior lighting replacements wiht whiter bulbs?-Move over > windshield banner-rear bumper guard-Perfect Fit hood deflector

[WaveAction]

so what are you mainly in for..the looks? or the performance? im going for a lil of both..rims/rubber lowered, then for performance cai, sway bars, strut bars, and possibly a turbo later down the road

[coldmm803]

waveresponder, i'm also in the philly areathe reflective tape looks cool, i bet its better in person. i'd like to paint or powder coat mine black and have a neptune and black theme goin, eventually would like a black top rear spoiler too

[waveresponder]

well right now im in for looks...ive even been looking at those fenders with the vents in em...dunno....then ill start spending on some of the performance stuff like your doing..lol

[waveresponder]

yah i was gonna paint the rails the color of my car...but then i thought of the reflective tape and how it be unique and at the same time give me a lil extra protection and visibilty driving around and on fire/ambulance calls...plus i love how drivers slow down when they see reflective markings..they must think im some authority figure...haha....that neptune, black theme sounds awesome..be sure to post up pics when you can...hey all us PA vibers need to get together sometime...are you gonna try to make the Gatlinburg meet next summer?

[coldmm803]

havent thought about the meet yet, depends on what happens with me graduating and where i get a job and stuff.

[waveresponder]
