But about the Vibe still have it still clean it regulary as well as the other Black caer in the Garage "5" so theres two to clean and detail i do like the 5 for the money and the options and the room wow what a car not as powerful as my Vibe GT but really nicely equiped car for the money love it.

Might have to check with JSP and see if they have any extras. Some of us had problems with ours, but they are nice! Good luck on the rod, the new home, the new additions to the family, the engagement, and everything else!
