DressedInBlack - 2008 Base 1.8L

Post by DressedInBlack »

So this is my extremely base Stealth Vibe. As far as upgrades, I haven't done much to my Vibe yet. Those are soon to come...if I ever get a raise. I did get some overlays for all the badges. They are matte black.I also got inspired by many of you, especially A Psycho Martyr, and painted the plastics in my engine bay.I have the overlays for the engine cover as well as the impressed Pontiac on the rear gate. Just need to have some free time to install those.Pics of the unremarkable interior and stereo system still to come...That is all for now.

The color looks great in the engine compartment! I looks like the same color under my hood.

Thanks lovemyraffe! I like the color as well. I wasn't too sure how it would turn out but I'm very pleased with it. I can't wait to get a SRI in there!And thank you too, VforVibe. The bubble on the Vibe badge went away, thankfully. I especially like the look of the side badges from an angle because you can still see the silver sides but the matte black front throws off the look a bit. It's kinda hard to explain...btw V, GO DOLPHINS!!!! sorry, born and raised Miami boy here. I do love to fish the flats in Tampa though. I have fished out of Apollo Beach at least 50 times.
