The (removed) looks a little low. But that is how Eibachs are on the Vibe.It looks good though. How is the ride? I am liking the hood scoop as well. Where did you get it & cost? Did you have it painted to match?Someone should make a hood like that.

No but the stickers have to go. And if you're gonna lower it that much, put some wheels on it...

Is that a two inch drop on there? if so then thats what I got on my Vibe, it looks fine. Now it looks low with stock 16" rims but sits just nice on 17" rims I got. I have yet to hit bottom.

the ride is a little bit rough and bumpy but it handles excellent plus the springs still brand new so im expecting this ride...the scoop i bought it from my local auto parts store and the paint also...it looks agressive....

NOTHING is impossible...I am already over 3" dropped and going lower before the bags go on in a few months...dig some inverted strut tower mounts to get 2 more inches to the drop...so when I do the mounts I will be at 5" slammed! Some of us want to go LOW really low....like it or not...just my desire

I am in desparate need of them, but I'm not sure where to get the best deal on them.

The strut bags run about 1400 for the four corners...add about 400 for the tank, compressor, valves, fittings, guages, hose, etc... for about 1800 for the set-up.You can go less by using sleeved universal strut bags, but not sure on the fit.There are a couple of companies showing vibe kits.

Yeah man those are the kits, but they WACK you for the parts other than the bags....valves, fittings, tanks and compressors are sooooooo much cheaper when you get them through other channels.........these are all just industrial components that have a "CAR" label on them so they can charge you big time.
