GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Hey all.. I've just purchased my 2003 VIBE GT! I love it so far! I visited this website to read your posts and comments before purchasing the car, and I got alot of great information! I'm glad this site is here!I'll try to put on a pic of the car... not sure if I have the IT ability... Does anyone know about putting vinyls on? Where would a girl find cool vinyls?I'm in Calgary, AB Canada and can't wait to rip out to the Rocky Mountains in my new GT!I Alberta METAL!

Welcome to Genvibe! Another fellow Calgarian! Awesome. Watch the AB forums, we have meets fairly regularly, and will be having another one on May 24th I think. Come on out if you're interested!

Cool VIbe Chick! Thanks for your post!I don't really know what colour my car is called... a dark grey colour though, GT 6 Speed etc... It'd be so cool to join in a meet! Where is the AB page?This Vibe thing is pretty fun, eh?

Welcome to GenVibe! Try here for some vinyl overlays: http://www.grafxwerks.com/prod...VIGT1

Vinyls? Like Overlays?Check out http://www.grafxwerks.com

Hey folks!I guess 'overlays'... to be honest, I know NOTHING about making my 'mummy and daddy' coloured car look hotter!This is funny... my only insight into tricking out cars comes from playing Need For Speed on PS2 - and upgrading my car there... so I'm a big loser! ha ha ha.Some kind of cool 'decal' or vinyl that will make things better... see pick of pretty lackluster colour...

Cool BlueCrush... thanks for the info! Hi.

Hey VibeChick.. what is a meet all about?

Welcome, I'm new too. We can learn together.This board is great for all your questions.

Hi! No problem. I've been playing NFS2 off and on, so I know what you mean. I haven't done much with cars until I got the Vibe and I'm having a ball doing it! Cool avatar by the way!

Yeah, this is the first time I've been interested in doing more than just washing my car... I'm going to go on the search for cool stuff to do to my Vibe!Avatar.. thank you - peace, and Metal - tough combo.. I like this avatar.. sums it up.Coolio.

Hey thanks for your post! Yes, it is great.. I had no idea I was getting into a cult with this car!

Thanks guy.. I am debating on the colour, thats why I'm looking for vinyls to put on it... hot it up a bit.. but its pretty coolio really!

Sometimes we have a bbq, sometimes we just meet up in a parking lot for a bit and then go for dinner...last summer we all got together and went to Racecity for drag racing Mostly it's just a chance to hang out with fellow car owners and have some fun.

fruitstone is more like it.. .pretty unspectacular.. but the car is still nice.I also have an old Corolla GTS Coupe that I LOVE - '88 . Red. Better.

When we have meets down here in SD we usually have a bunch of guys doing different installs (i.e. superchargers, springs, exhaust, etc...). It's a lot of fun and everyone can learn something new!

May 24? Sounds like a good place to meet some people, learn more about cars and maybe have a beer!

welcome aboard. i think it's really cool that this board has members from such diverse parts of the continent (and beyond?). the board i read for my previous vehicle was rather restricted geographically. i find it rather interesting to hear about the quirks people find troublesome based on where they live (i.e., traction in snow).

Thanks for the welcome! I've had a good day at GenVibe! No snow for you?Quote, originally posted by jwalcik »welcome aboard. i think it's really cool that this board has members from such diverse parts of the continent (and beyond?). the board i read for my previous vehicle was rather restricted geographically. i find it rather interesting to hear about the quirks people find troublesome based on where they live (i.e., traction in snow).

welcome to genvibe I did a little overlay work on my engine cover, you can check out if you want to. It was very easy to do.

Hey.. what colour is your car - what is it called? Thats the same colour as my car!Quote, originally posted by iinan »welcome to genvibe I did a little overlay work on my engine cover, you can check out if you want to. It was very easy to do.

moonstone (charcoal)I wanted the fusion but the wife gave me the LOL

yeah, I would have picked the Fusion or Neptune - but bought 2nd hand, so had to go with what was available (Not a whole lot to choose from!) - Moonstone it is!

HEH you called him 'guy' and typed in 'eh' you rock Metal Vibes, you just seem like a cool cat, your wordage is definately upbeat, I dig that $hit!

welcome to gvc. you should check out a couple different forums, there is one for the alberta crew. we'll be having an evening get together/meet may 24 (whatever day is tues), then plan to drive up to edmonton on weds to hang out at the mall. my hubby and i will be driving thru from ontario up to alaska, taking a 3 day break to hang out w/ our friends (whom we met on these forums). there is the SUPERMEET in Fenton, Michigan in june, but we'll be missing that one this year. my hubby has an 04 fusion base vibe, i had an 03 satellite gt vibe, but traded that in 2 wks ago for an 05 subie legacy gt. vibechick also traded her base abyss (black) vibe for a black SRT-4 the same day. http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=15711as for graphics, there are plenty around. silentrage is in canada, i think in calgary too. they may be a vendor on vmx. i had some vinyl graphics on my vibe gt from decalkits.com

thanks for the feedback, I shall endeavour to join you all at the meet on the 24th!I love the 'swooshes' you put on your car! THATS what I'm talking about - I would LOVE to put something like that on my Vibe - where does a girl find goods like that?I love the North! Enjoy your journey!

She got them from http://decalkits.com I have a side vinyl kit sitting in my closet just waiting for my new fenders to get here to install!

Here is a few more online graphics sites:http://www.azautographics.com/http://ww ... ecals.html

heh, i haven't seen much in the way of snow since i moved back to texas from michigan. fortunately i'm also far enough from the texas coast that i don't have to worry about salt/rust as much as my relatives down in the neck of the woods where i'm originally from do.

I'd love to come and meet you folks on the 24th!I actually work in the Mortgage industry for a national Canadian mortgage lender - quite a good and fun place to be. SO.. everyone feel free to use me as a point of contact for mortgages and mortgage info!That said.. trucking to Edmonton on a Wed is likely a no go for me, but it would be really fun for sure!
