Yeah, I dig the clean look. My tastes are very simple. Thanks for the compliments, everyone!

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I still have yet to see anyone with the EV-S wheels, unless you're talking about Mille Miglia's in general. Besides, you can't blame them for having good taste.

Here's the other pic...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Yeah, I noticed that too. I'm working on a fix right now...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Actually, I was finished a while ago, but I've been too lazy to host the pictures or start a cardomain site. Anyway, here's the pics...

You can get a spring compressor from Autozone for $40, but they return ALL of your money when you bring it back. It's basically free. That's what I did.

I'm here in Ashburn, VA until this Sunday (7/25/04), and was wondering if you guys would like to meet up over a beer or something and check out each other's Vibes. Maybe we could take some cool pics or something as well. Let me know.-JerrodP.S. Where did you guys get your Vibes aligned after lowerin...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

From what I understand, I'll need to get a front-end alignment on the Vibe after I lower it this weekend. Question is, where should I get it done? I want cheap, but I don't want a hassle. Does anyone know a good place with a good price?

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Thanks a lot, guys. This is exactly the sort of thing I needed.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I'm installing Tein S-Tech springs, throwing on my new 18" Mille Miglia EV-S wheels, and painting my calipers and drums this Saturday. Any advice would be muuuuuch appreciated. I'll be sure to post pics when I'm done. Thanks in advance!

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I just bought a set of 18" Mille Miglia EV-S's on Ebay, and the guy didn't include the lugs with them for some reason. Maybe he found another use for them. Anyway, he said that I'd need a set of tuner style lugs, and that the stock lugs wouldn't work. Does anyone know the exact size I need, and...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Good deals! I'm getting the 225/40-18's as well, and I'm really happy to hear that you like the tires so much. It makes my purchase that much easier. By the way, I bought a set of 18" Mille Miglia EV-S wheels on Ebay, and the jerk didn't hook me up with lugs. Do you know what kind of lugs I'm s...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I have a block heater on mine, but I don't think I'll ever use it. I don't have a garage to plug it into.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Very cool. I just read a few posts down, and ZubenElGenubi has a set of Ecsta ASX's. I wonder how they're treating him.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

These are a pretty new all-season tire, and from the reviews I've read seem like a great tire for the price. I was just wondering if anyone here is riding on these, and if so, how do you like them?

Jerrod (Knellblast)

No pics of me or mine. I guess I showed up a little too late. :-p

Jerrod (Knellblast)

My buddy and I had a great time. I got my Vibe out of the shop this morning, and made it there in time to hang out for a few hours. Unfortunately, I got a lot of great ideas for my vibe, but I don't have the money to do them... Yet.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Oh, I'll definitely be there. I wouldn't miss it for anything.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

http://www.autoameristar.com/locations.htmlHe went to the one in Rochester Hills I believe, although it doesn't have that location listed on the above link. Weird.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Yep, I forgot to mention that... Everone was ok. I'm just glad I got the anti-lock brakes option, because it could have been worse. I took it to Collex on 14 and Mound, and so far I'm very happy with them. It's going to cost $5,000 because they have to replace 66 parts. Ouch!

Jerrod (Knellblast)

2 Sundays ago, I was with my girl at Lakeside Mall driving around the loop, when a 70 year old man in a Cadillac pulled out right in front of me to make a left. It was a pain in the neck trying to convince his insurance company that he was at fault, because the cops can't come onto private property,...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

A buddy of mine just went to Auto Ameristar for his '04 Matrix, and couldn't be happier with the job they did. They did all 7 windows for about $200, and did it in about an hour and a half. Man, I wish I would have gone there!

Jerrod (Knellblast)

This is a GREAT idea. I'm going out to Lowes tomorrow and picking up the materials to make myself a matt or two!

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I was out in Ashburn this weekend, savedbyzero. I kinda' wanted to meet up and have a beer with you and check out your vibe, but my weekend was crazy as hell. Next time I'm out there I'll hit you up. Great looking wheels, by the way!

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Yeah, I bet it's a misprint. Thats a little too funky.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I wish I would have seen this thread before I bought my Silver Stars. Haha. I love the SS's and all, but I know they're going to burn out in about a year, and that blows.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Crap. I just bought a tub of the new Turtle Wax Cleaner Wax today. I hope it's a little easier to apply than the regular carnuba wax. I'll find out early tomorrow, though.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Hahaha. That looks so fun.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Yeah, taking back is not really an option. I took it to a place, and they goofed up and gave me limo tint all the way around. I took it back and they fixed it, but obviously didn't do the *best* job they could have. I'm happy with it overall, but there's some touching up I wanted to do. The windows ...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Are you guys sure they'll disappear? These are air bubbles, not those little water bubbles. I'll leave the windows up for another week just to be sure, but if they don't go away i'm gonna' need some more advice. Thanks again, everyone!

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I just got my windows tinted, and there's a few small bubbles here and there. Does anyone have any tips on how to get them out? Can I squeegee them out now that the tint is dry, and if so how do I do that? Or, can I "pop" them with a needle and just press the air out? Will it stick to the ...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Not to be a jerk, but I've said a few times now that I won't mention where I got it done because I don't want to hurt the guy's business. I'm not out to slam anyone, because he *did* fix his mistake at no charge. I certainly wouldn't recommend him either, though. If someone happens to take their car...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Update: After taking my Vibe in again yesterday to be fixed, the guy called me at lunch and told me he wouldn't be able to get to it until today. So after taking it in this morning FOR THE 3RD TIME, he finally got the tint right (17% all the way around). It looks great, but I can tell he rushed the ...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I'm having trouble finding Silverstars for my front turn signals. I found and installed them in both my fogs and headlights, but all of the places I've been to don't carry the part number I'm looking for. It should be 1157ST, correct? Where did you guys find yours at? Thanks.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I don't want to hurt anyone's business, so if he does a good job this time, I won't say anything. If he screws it up again or gives me a hard time, I'm gonna' post it everywhere, including the MI board.

Jerrod (Knellblast)

Well first off, thanks to everyone for their input. Now for the update... I got my windows tinted yesterday, and the result was NOT GOOD. First of all, I wanted 20% all the way around, but the closest they had was 17%. Fine. When I came to pick it up, not only was the whole thing in LIMO BLACK 5%, b...

Jerrod (Knellblast)

I've been browsing the forums for about a week now, but still haven't found the answers to these questions (although I've come across a lot of others!).1) Headlights and turn signals (and foglamps)... I've seen people talk about the Siverstars quite a bit, but is there anything out there better than...
