My new Jet Black 09 Vibe GT (updated with new pics)

[lowincash]

well i've only had the vibe for since monday and so far it's been great. i'm really surprised how quickly this car gets to speed especially merging onto fwy. anyways here's a couple pics of my black GT...i'll get better pics with a real camera this weekend after i get tint =Dbtw, this is my first black car and my goodness it's hot. it's parked outside and today was 87 degrees and when i got to the car i touched the door and it was burning hot lol but it's worth it i don't really mind...black looks friggin awsome! also i don't know if i should leave the front plates off...in cali you need the front plates on =/ dealer didn't drill any holes on the bumper yet so i don't know if i want them to drill it in lol anyways that's all for now

nice GT! -- it looks good without the front plate, but I imagine it would be a ticket if a cop stopped you.

Once you go black, you never go back.

Man, mine came with a front license plate holder and I wish it didn't! It's legal here to not have a front plate. Just my luck!

Just my luck!the dealer asked me if i want to have it put on right now or wait till i get the plates first then drill the holes lol i told them not to drill holes on the bumper yet so i'll have to go back to them once i get the license plates.btw for a black car, do you guys suggest 35% or 20% tint? i'm having a tough time deciding...but i got till saturday to decide

At least 15% for the back windows and rear..i should have listened to you =/ i ended up getting 35% and now i want darker lol maybe i'll just do the back darker since i don't want to risk getting ticket for the fronts...i also tinted my whole windshield with huper optik 60% and sunroof huper optik 40%. i would have taken some pics today...i spent like an hour last night cleaning and washing the car but it rained today and it's all dirty again now i know why black cars are so hard to keep clean

WOW!Gorgeous car! First pictures of any GT I've seen in Black...NICE!

[lowincash]

thanks...so far there's a few black gt's on this forum...maybe 3 or 4 other ones.here's a couple pics i just took with a real camera after washing the car...and tint.well i added 35% tint last week but then it was too light so i added another layer of 35% on the back. oh yeah i also took out all my center caps from the rims...i lost one so i just took the rest out so i don't loose any more lol
