Quote, originally posted by Kamikaze » add some strobes in the lights... man that would be sweeet!i would but technically its not legal around here unless you display red lights...im all blue....as it is i got pulled over the other day on the way to call assist....the cop must of not know i was EMS...he looked fairly new to me....well at least now he knows not to pull me over...PA law states you have to have one visible 360 degree lightbar..then after that you only are allowed one dash light...then they go as far as restricting how many times per minute they can flash....also tell you how bright their allowed to be...so technically everyone that only displays a dash light no matter the color is illegal...but enforcement never happens when it should.....lighting regulations vary from state to state...its stupid....althought there are plenty of people around here that do illegally use the headlight strobes...my feeling is if your EMS you should be allowed whatever.....as long as you dont endanger others safety responding to a call..whether vehicle, or medical...its just those that join fire companys that choose the calls that they respond to and those that volunteer for EMS and never respond to calls but when they do they drive like morons that give the fire/ems service pov lighting use bad rep.......IMO1- all POV emergency ligthing should be red for fire, and red and white for ems2- all police and federal agencies (FBI, CIA, others) should be red and blue, and headlight flashing systems..3...its stupid how some states cops and state troopers are all blue....4.....so you can imagine what happens when you get tourists to another state/country...5..also some states allow EMS only green lights. "doesnt everyone know green means go?...(removed)"6.lastly some states only allow fireman Ambers lights "just like mailmen, road crews, snowplows..and so on ...."who yields for them?"7 until theres requirements for people to be able to display emergency lighting such as EVOC (emergency vehicle operators course) there will be morons who give a reason for police to pull over fire/ems personnell that are resonding for legitimate reasons in their POV's (personal occupancy vehicles)

So were you like Dude, I'm going to a EMS call, and you're not helping matters by pulling me over... and did he let you go, or was there a bunch of BS before he finally let you go?(I'd keep it legal, as cool as it would look with headlight strobes)

he had one of those "my bad" looks on his face after i told him and i resisted the tempation to attempt a burnout....

finally bought new rims for the vibe! (18 inch O.Z. Palladio Rims) total price = $911.60 including sales tax.......now i just need to decide on tires, and what month of the year i should switch the OEM wheels/tires out (i have the 16 inch stock).....i took a few pics....ill post them later if i get around to it or Monday at work....

teaser pic....lol

get outta town!!!!!post pics as soon as those bad boys are mounted!!!!!!

Ridiculous... for getting rims though!

ahhhhh teaser pic, you suck. there aren't really rims in those boxes till we see the rims. i think you just found the boxes behind an auto parts storei think the palladios will look badas* mounted

dang it you beat me to those rims. grr... i was looking at those exact rims too for mine, but ill have to wait a bit longer to get some rims and the hood and rear spoiler from rk.but def post pics of them mounted.

i will also have to decide what color i should paint the calipers....http://g2usa.com/colors.shtmlhttp://www ... er.htmland i think somewhere you can buy lime green?

I like the G2 colors and i would go with either silver or black.

Dude, we are all ready to kill you. We need those *^#$! pics!

heres a pic of one of them.....im thinking ill be buying tires and mounting them sometime in March?.....sorry for the wait....wish i could put them on right now!

hey twin, nice rims man!, those were one of the rims i was thinking about..but they dont come in gold..but it'll look sweet..i did a photoshop awhile ago with those rims..you wont be dissappointed

thanks for the compliments Action!...im sure you'll pick the perfect rims for your Wave when the time comes!

took the Vibe to the dealer for its appointment today!....the right front side molding apparently had been installed crappy at the factory and was becoming loose...soooo they installed the new molding they had to order for me (under warranty) ...also they told me to bring in the exhaust for them to take a look at.....told me take about an hour...only ended up being about half and hour.....($50).....soooo the Borla Exhaust is on!.....so far I love it...the guys at the dealer had a lil fun playing with my lights....which i expected them to do....lol

Are those the weathertech vent visors? I've been scoping those out for a while. They look great.

Bianco.....the vent visors I ordered from GM

ok...so im thinking about buying.....Toyo Proxes FZ4....i can get them $100.00 each.....is this a good price?...anyone have any experiance with these?...the price includes mounting and balancing...

I have Toyo's on my car and I love them.

actually im thinking bout getting Toyo Proxes 4 now....

$100 for the toyos are a good price, im probably gonna go with falkens, forget the model, or yokohamas

was bored at work and it was nice out so i took a few pics...Steering Wheel Cover...(shines a nice almost wave blue in the sun)Tom Tom 720 with Alternative MountRadioShack Speaker for scanner in center console and switches for emergency lights and airhorn

took a few pics over the weekend at Valley Forge Park...def need to go back again and take some more when i have the time...was with my dad and we were in a little bit of a rush to get home...maybe i can ask permission to park the vibe closer (beyond the chain)
