[ramenboy...]

looks goodthose are some serious freakin wheels, man! no need for you to lower the car at all. any rubbing on turns?

[BlueCrush]

Nice! Ridin' on 20's!!!

[A Psycho Martyr]

Na, really no rubbing on turns at all. It's goin down the interstate doing 80 with two people in the car....every bump....Tires rub the wheel well 8(

[Mariachi]

nice ride man. you gunna wet sand the tint on the headlights down and buff them out? it would look killer all glossed out! i see a lot of konig unkowns but never seen one on a vibe. not a bad choice! you gunna do anything on lowering the car? if you do, might have to make some adjustments in the wheel well. my 18's started rubbing the plastic on the wheel wells after i lowered so i had to cut some of it out where it was rubbin.

I dunno I may end up wet sanding em, but I know it won't be in the next few months. And I can't lower my ride That's th eprice you pay for 20in rims. My tires already rub the plastic.

then do hellaflush. first vibe hellaflushed that i have ever seen.

[Mariachi]

other than how the bags make your ride feel, nothing out of control. it would be sick to be the (i think) first hellaflush vibe.

[A Psycho Martyr]

UPDATE!! I put a lip on the front bumper like the one we saw on the MIDNIGHTunerz Vibe. Tutorial up soon. UBER easy and cost $15

[A Psycho Martyr]

For those who haven't noticed...when I update my garage I'm just adding to BOTTOM of the FIRST post so it's easier to see EVERYTHING I've done 8)

[Mariachi]

haha. told ya that stuff is easy. and the lip doesn't break either cuz its that rubber insolati+on stuff for garage doors. nicely done

[07vibegxp]

hey man this is a sick looking vibe..have a question.. how the hell do you see at night with those tinted headlights loli had mine tinted, and prolly one stage lighter then yours... and i could justtttlike pushing it JUST see in the dark.i have a 8k hid kit now. maybe that would help...suggestions?

[A Psycho Martyr]

Well I have the aftermarket fogs which are really bright. I always got bright-lighted before I tinted them. Also I adjusted my headlights upward a little. AND I sanded in the middle where most of the light comes out, so it's not as dark in the center of the headlight. As for hid kits, I'm useless.lol I know nothing

[Mariachi]

well... with the HID's, i can help out with that. they should actually be bright enough to make their way through the tinting. you are running the dual filament bulbs right? I have the 6k bulbs and they are bright as hell!

[NascarXprt]

Lookin good buddy!

[domesticdriver]

You should submit your car to Domestic Driver Magazine as a Readers Ride for the May/June 2010 issue! http://www.domesticdriver.com we would enjoy having your car in the issue!

[A Psycho Martyr]

[shortbuskristn]

Hey I was just wondering where you got your front Pontiac emblem?

[A Psycho Martyr]

well I got it off ebay some time ago. Don't remember the seller. I'll send you a pm if i find it. I'm gonna see if I can pull up my ebay history or somethin

[shortbuskristn]

THank you.I dig your car so much. I wanted a monotone white one and couldnt find one. Looks amazing man good job on all ur mods.

[A Psycho Martyr]

I mailed the seller that I got it from. He doesn't have them listed anymore, but I asked if he could still do it that he email me. I'll let you know somethin when I hear back.

[A Psycho Martyr]

UPDATE:I installed a Vibe emblem on the front bumper

[oriden]

just a heads up for the vibe emblems there is one listed on ebay comming from ontario.http://cgi.ebay.ca/PONTIAC-VIB...6822b

[glennpert]

Hey man i love your car! I'm going to do a few mods to my own. You can see below what my vibe used to look like (chrome rims are gone now). Im thinking of buying the Konig illusions(black with red accent. So i want to get a gloss black spray paint and paint my billet. I also want to smoke my headlights the way you did. I don't want them that dark though and was wondering if you wet sand them will it make them lighter?

[A Psycho Martyr]

I'm in love with your hood boss! And If you wet sand them it WILL make them lighter. And the billet should look pretty fly in black.

[jessep19]

I like it!!! Nice work done on the paint and everything! looking good!!

[A Psycho Martyr]

Had a tweeter go out, so I installed some new ones I bought from my bro. Soundstream! Check out the bottom of the first post!

Welcome to 'GenVibe God' status, Brandon!

[smeadows7]

I was wondering where you got that front lip? It looks nice and its not tacky. Exactly what I've been looking for.

[bassrocker032]

Hey psycho, I just painted the black trim around my gauge cluster and I decided on the two right smaller pods to paint the inside white as well and to my extreme surprise, the lighting is exactly the same as if it was left black like the two larger pods of the gauge cluster. Blew my mind. I just finished btw. I should have pics up tomorrow, although if you want to see what it looks like just look at yours and imagine the two small pods white on the inside, lol.

[NascarXprt]

hey Brandon, where is the post on how to get that lower lip done located at. cant remember where it is. wanting to get this done to mine.

thanks buddy

[bassrocker032]

I meant to ask where did you get your seat covers? I'm planning on going with white and black racing seats anyways but I just wanted to know so I can get them to hold me over until I save up. Also on your interior, did you manage to get any shine through on the a/c cluster. I saw where you removed the foam on the inside but I didn't know if it had any effect or anything.

[A Psycho Martyr]

Also comes with the steering wheel cover and two seatbelt shoulder pads.Check my seat covers out here!Quote, originally posted by bassrocker032 »Also on your interior, did you manage to get any shine through on the a/c cluster?Negative Sky Captain. I got no light thru it. At night you may BARELY see some, but it's definitely no help. So Now I gotta get decals cut to show the control settings

[bassrocker032]

Damn, guess I got lucky leaving mine stock gray. Where do you get stuff like that done? The decals I mean.

[bassrocker032]

Hey psycho, I need help and it can come in the form of adding a pic to your garage. I tinted my front headlights with the exact same stuff you did, but the question is, is how dark are your headlights? Because right now i'm WAY WAY WAY below the legal limit. I'm having to rock the one fog light (since a ground hog decided I didn't need the other one after I hit him) just to have a chance at seeing the road. I plan on wet sanding the **** out of them either tomorrow or the next day and buffing it to make it lighter, even, and all around a better looking job but I was wondering how yours looked. I might just prevent night driving for a while, lol. After wet sanding and the addition of halogen bulbs, I should be back to very bright while still having the dark tint look but just wondering.

[A Psycho Martyr]

Yeah sure here ya go!Here's the passenger one AFTER being redone. I went too dark as well.Right now I'm in the process of removing the tint completely because when I redid it, I went halfa$$ and it looks blotchy when they're on. So as you can see in thhis pic...the driver side is bald in the middle. I just wetsand on it every couple days or so. Doin more todayAnd people...please excuse the bugs

[A Psycho Martyr]

i did them lighter in the middle and darker toward the edges. Came out really nice but I'm ready for it to be done right. When you sand them, don't make the same mistake I did. Male sure you completely remove ALL the tint.
