Ever have this problem???

Post by Zer0VIBE03 »

So everytime I come on here, I read a bunch of topics and am inspired to spend time lovingly cleaning my Vibe.Today I have nothing going on.. so interior clean/detail.I will be debadging the doors and trunklid (it's not SO popular here, but I really like the clean look).I want to fix the stupid cladding trim on the door that one of the clips is broken.. need to find a way to get it to stay adhered to the door (have some trim tape and a cushioned C-clamp maybe...)Ever sit on here and read stuff and go "I just need to go do something w/ my Vibe" ???? I love this community

Why do you think my Vibe is so covered in red things now? GenVibe + Proximity to Auto Supply Stores + eBay = Where did those last three days go + Why am I broke?

This site is terrible. Everyday I get on here and get new ideas, then I try to figure out when I can do it. Can I take time away from work to do it? Can I afford to do another one? It's always, "What's next?" for me.

The Indy Meet forced me into completing the "oh, I am SO doing THAT" list of mods way ahead of schedule. I crammed them all into one afternoon, leaving only an AUX input or new headunit as my only desire... for now. Although, seeing Brian's (BlueCrush) install of the aftermarket hood gas shocks has me thinking otherwise:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=38406
Steelies to the rescue.

well it looks like I have the cladding fixed.. and I got the door badges off and waxed the area that was underneath to get rid of the shadowing (with some elbow grease of course ) The full interior detail will have to wait until I get ahold of a rental steam vac.. I have some interesting interior stains that need to be handled (no, perverts, not that..). But I will give the inside a much needed sprucing as the exterior has been getting all the love lately.

Since I installed the trailer hitch, I can't seem to stop thinking about hooking up the tent trailer, go camping, take lots of pics and post to GenVibe!!!

De-badging looks great ! Great to see another Chicagoland Vibe owner. Hopefully you can make it to one of our next get togethers (when we get the next one figured out ).
