The new white looks a lot brighter than the stock white. Looks good though! I am going to fit the rear bumper and install the side skirts tomorrow! I'll probably be calling! Once I get the rear on I am going to take the front and rear off and back to Andre's for paint. Might mess with the fenders again tomorrow to see if there is a way we can use them/ get them to fit right.

This is all I have so far. Side skirts and fenders aren't fitting well. Need some body work, but called one place and they quoted me $4-8K for fitment and installation! I about $^&! my pants when I heard that! Think I'll look around and see what I can come up with!

4 to 8 grand !! even if it took 2 guys 2 weeks to fit everything they would be making money. i bet in the hands of a skilled "bodyman" it can be done in 8 hours tops!!!! @ 50 an hr =400 ill talk to some people jason. shulda called me

Didn't expect that, that's for sure! Let me know what you find out, but honestly I didn't even hope to pay that much!

When I asked for a quote from a local bodyshop they told me 800 to 1200 depending on how easy it went on. That's paint and install without the kit on hand. I plan on taking the kit in to get a better estimate.

high estimate jason=400 im shure less. ill talk to a buddy maybe he can give me some tips. id work on installing the kit with you but that is not really my thing and i would hate to brake anything. but im shure we could pull it off.

That way they should know the ropes and could get it done sooner and it would be less of a hassle for me. I know you got some hook-ups, so let me know if you find anything.

Damron, maybe that was a quote for one of those cheap Civic bodykits that you normally have to completely rebuild anyways just to mount it. Did you tell him it was for a Vibe and fit semi-descent? My friend got a kit for his Civic that was a pile of trash. It was cracked, the only piece that came anywhere near fitting was the rear bumper, the front bumper was about 6 inches too wide and even with all that trash the quote was only about $600 including paint and touch up fiberglass.

Paul, I think this place was just crazy. I told him it was a fiberglass kit, that the front and rear bumpers fit fine but that the side skirts were too tight and the fenders needed to be fitted and that is the price he gave me! I was literally blown away! I'm sure I'll find something better, that was just after a few phone calls to local body shops.

i say we meet up and ill do it for u!

hahaha..ok well i can tellu what i did..and it makes the skirts stirdier..u have to pushthen on the body pretty hard and then drill the whole..then pull the drill bit out and push it again to put the screw in..i only have 4 screws holding it and it is extremely strdy, like a part of the car.

Also, mine was so tight when I tried to push it on that it pulled the front fender back and the door was scraping against the fender when I tried to open it. You better come down!

You better come down! nope no stock tabs they dont work...u dont use anythign on the sideskirts..all u have to do is drill holes..i found that out the hard way and one one skirt i have holes filled witht hte plastic tabs. ye ait is going to be a tight fit also. i used my friend to use all his force to push up the skirt while i drilled, and then screwed them in.

yOU DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT PUTTING TOO MUCH FORCE ON THE FRONT FENDERS AND THE DOORS RUBBING WHEN YOU TRIED TO OPEN THEM? Oops, didn't realize the caps was on! Oh well. Anyways, I don't want to go change it all so I'll just type some more so less than 1/2 the words are in caps!!

I wasn't talking about the fenders, I'm saying when we tried to puch the skirts on with the stock fenders, it pulled back on the front lower fender to the point it was against the door, and when you tried to open the door it rubbed against the fender.

I know Fresno is at least a few hours away. Let me know if you want to try to work something out.

Where did you find the hood? I'm thinking about a hood or CAI under the front grille and wanted to know where I could find a hood similar to that. Great job!

Great job!If you are referring to the hood on the psychovibe car itself you can either order from street-graffiti or you can buy it from RKSport directly.

Quote, originally posted by rcasciola »anyone herd anythign from psychovibe...or did he just vanish?I think once the sales went through he disappeared from GVC all together. Of course you can still get ahold of him though street graffiti, but I think he left us here at GVC.

Did you ever get your side skirts to fit? I'm probably going to order the entire kit but if people are having problems with it i may not.

Quote, originally posted by tangerine »Did you ever get your side skirts to fit? I'm probably going to order the entire kit but if people are having problems with it i may not.No one else seems to be having problems with theirs, so maybe it's just mine or I'm retarded! Also no one else that has posted even got the fenders, so it's hard to say on those. I don't have the money to take it all somewhere and have them fit and install this stuff, so it might be a while before I even know what the real situation is.

thats harsh

now they re-did the entire dash with custome fiberglass, that is the reason psychovibe hasnt been here...these are the pics..

How would one go about getting in on the group buy, or is it too late now? Also, who would I talk to about getting it wholesale (my family owns a car & truck accessories store, and we certainly wouldn't mind being the only store within 100 miles with good access to this type of mod)?

Nevermind. After reading several pages into the thread, I noticed that the group buy is over by far.Where would everyone recommend getting the body kit? Who has the best price? The best price I've seen so far is from http://www.aerotrends.com.

u can get it straight from street-graffiti.com thats where i got mine and everyone else as well. i woul dcontact by phone rather than email or anythign else, that is the quickest responce. about whole sale u would have to talk to them. good luck!

Damn, that fiberglassed dash is an excelent idea! I have 4 gallons of fiber glass in my garage with no use. Maybe I could do that!

so just wondering..who out there has the aerogear kit on their vibe? i kno that i do...but i tought there were like 5 or 6 others?

Quote, originally posted by rcasciola »so just wondering..who out there has the aerogear kit on their vibe? i kno that i do...but i tought there were like 5 or 6 others?Yeah, no kidding. You got yours on, and I remember 1 other guy with it on. I never installed mine, it's still sitting in the back yard. Christian got the fenders and roof caps, but I haven't heard from him in a while.

i have mine on

yea i still have to get those grills..and maybe raise my car lol..although i might be getting my sti pretty soon. ill have to think about this one...i might be one of those others selling their vibe...any takers? LOL

Mine should be going on at the end of the month. I'll post pics when it's finally on. I've been waiting on wheelmax to get my wheels back in stock cuz I'm not gonna be seen rollin a vibe with a bodykit and hubcaps.

Well, got the wheels and they look nice, unfortunately I ran into some financial roadblocks (the girlfriend wanted to get a cat, and we moved to a new place). Since winter is approaching here in Chicagoland I figure I'll wait till the spring so I don't wreck the kit on the snow and ice.

Oh my rice...first time I've seen this injustice since been away for awhile...Sorry, but IMHO it's just plain wrong. The top caps are OK, but doesn't seem that they fit too clean...that front is just....i don't even have the words...

what...

this kit still for sell?

Quote, originally posted by Dans_03Vibe »this kit still for sell?I might be willing to part with mine if the price is good, and we're semi-local so we could meet up. Let me know. You'll need to get it painted of course.

is it the full body kit with the fenders and roof caps?
