IMHO...you need to lose that sticker and the "aerodynamic" extensions on the front. Just not my thing, but hey...it was bound to happen sometime....No offense, to each his own. Good luck with your car and enjoy it!

Wow Dude, I wouldn't let Tenzo pay my whole car payment to have that on the side of my car. I won't even wear t-shirts with names plastered on them.

You know with those stickers (large as they are) on your Vibe, you have just added at least 10 HP to your car.

it's not so bad, i don't like the stereotypical "R" though. ignore everyone, if that's what you like, that's all that matters!

What kind of turbo do you have? Price? How does it perform? Good HP gains? Im interested in the Supercharger but its an arm and a leg. I guess a turbo would be my second choice.

It's not his turbo, at least it doesn't look like it's his engine bay..The only time I'd consider a sticker/vinyl like that ok is if the ENTIRE car is already modded and sponsored. Even then, it probably wouldn't be street-legal...but not on a stock looking base Vibe. At least lower it, tint, and add some rims.

You car doesn't suck. IMO, the vinyl does.I wasn't trying to be harsh just not my taste...I'm glad you like it. That's what matters..sometimes I just can't help myself.Glad you found the site. We're hear to help, but if you ask an opinion, I'm gonna be honest.And as far as racing me, bring it...I'll remove the stickers along with your doors! J/K! Like i said before, good luck with your car and enjoy it! At least it's not a HonDUH!

I like your stereo install. Very clean and nice. I like your painted calipers too! ...And I sure hope you weren't challenging a GT with your base Vibe! If you want those decals to be taken seriously, then you have to tint, lower and put some wheels on it. I know you were planning on it, but maybe you should have done those three mods first. Just my $0.02.Good luck!

Well, If you like it and it makes you happy...That is all that really matters....I am a working artist for thirteen years and have learned to disregard the peanut gallery...but you did ask for the others opinion so you are probably level headed enought to take the critiques...Ok bye...

I better see a BIG A$$ intercooler mounted in the front, dragging the the ground before I would disregard the sticker! And it better spool up like a freakin' jet!

I like it. You just need to lower it. If you were to get the bottom fascias replaced with the mono-tone ones the sticker would fit better. I love your turbo...that's so awsome. I wish I had a turbo on mine...I'm curious to how the turbo sounds in the Vibe maybe you could upload a sound file for me? Or send it to my email... dyingstar@email.com

Thats not his turbo. I thought the same thing as you until another Genvibe member pointed it out to me. All he has is exhaust and intake.

I like the color scheme you went with the black and red same as mine, however you could probably be better served by getting a smaller roll call done or getting the Tenzo put on the front bumper under the headlights..otherwise a good start keep going. I really like the Sony speakers in the doors!

Awww, you got me all excited, I thought that was yours. Oh well I still like it. I heard Sony Xplods were bad quality....how do your sound? I love how they look but everyones says since Sony puts alot of money into other things as well, not as much effort goes into the car audio...

I thought they were good speakers might not be the best but never heard a complaint.

The new Sony HU's aren't that great. The last of them was basically the Sony Xplod CDX810X.Sony xplod subs/speakers aren't really the best, but hey, whatever works man.Personally, I'm a huge fan on Tenzo R, and if you like the decal, then keep it by all means. As with the other people, I think your car would look better tinted and dropped, and you might wanna ask Tenzo R for some rims since you're sponsering them (I'm runnin on 18" gunmetal Tenzo R Shuu-10 rims and lovin them )

And here's my system, which has been dubbed as "Overkill" by a few people here >_>I swapped the amps to be on top, and made all three subs to be backfiring, also replaced the subs with: 15" Orion H2, 12" Orion H2, and another 12" Orion H2
