Hello and Hi

Post by Whelan »

What's up everyone, just thought I would take a sec to introduce myself on here. Now that I actually own a Matrix. There is some good info on here for sure, I also belong with Matrixowners.com so I have been around. I am not new to modding or DIY or maintenance so I can def. throw in 2 cents or a quarter here and there. But anyways, I do have pics of my car, you can find them on the other post on here (no sense in putting up the same pics)http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=26855General Info: (all stock)2005 Toyota Matrix XR AWDCurrently 40,000 milesBlack Pearl Metallic16" alloy wheelsOEM lip kitfog lampsleather wrapped wheel6 disc in-dash CD changerrear bumper protectorvent shadespwr. moonroofVIP securityI purchased it from Toyota of Dartmouth, MA. God a decent deal back in August of '06, it was a Certified Pre-Owned and paid $18,000 for it. Worked for me, I got AWD, a$$loads more room, and kept the fuel economy I had with my Civic EX Coupe (almost). Still all around everything I wanted then some!

Welcome... You know you will love your new trix even if it was pre-owned. Side bar... too bad the genvibe site doesn't have the same emocotions, now that would be cool.. instead of the lame 17 ones we have here

thanks all!I already am working on a DIY with plenty of pics on making a cargo cover VERY similar to the one on Ebay fo about $35-45 and some of your time. I'll post updates until I get the DIY done then make one in the DIY section for all to see and share. I've got a materials list, and tonight I am off to measure and possibly HD to get some materials to start making a template with.
