2003 Vibe GT

Post by TreFatKids »

Hey everyone!
This is my first car, as I am 16 years old. Got the car last year on Labor Day. Got my license on the 8th of September. I'm the second owner of this car. It has 121,000 miles, BUT! 30,000 of those miles are towing miles. So the engine and transmission only has around 91,000 miles. The mods I have done to it include, K&N short ram intake, Magnaflow exhaust system, Rally Armor Basic mudflaps, TAKATA tow strap, yellow fog light overlays, and I plasti-dipped the "Vibe GT" emblems as well as debadging the rear Pontiac logo. My last mod will come soon as it will be a rally light bar that I am custom making. I have 2 6 inch KC Slim lights, and 2 KC Rally 400 lights.

This is a very nice car for a first car. Actually, it is a nice car, period. Welcome to the forum and thanks for the pictures!

The grey makes it very stealthy. Maybe too stealthy. Old folks with vision issues may have trouble seeing it against grey concrete or in cloudy weather. For safety, and possibly for good looks you could apply some bright neon graphics. It's just a thought.
