Lonely without the Vibe

Well, it has been three 3 days now without the Vibe. I never knew how much I love that car and driving it until now. It just sucks walking out in the morning and not seeing my Vibe. I am wanting to do a few mods to it, but I can't. To top it all off, I have a Buick Century for a loaner car and when I am driving it, I feel like an old man.

The loaner is from the body shop where it is getting some paint work done to it.

You could always get some old Don Jonson style sunglasses and print out and cut up some pics of the Vibe and glue/tape them to the insides of the lenses... they have to match or things will look funny driving down the road...

You got just the lower wing? How much did that set you back? I like the Matrix bumper guard, I have that on my '04 Satellite Vibe.

We split on the spoiler kit.I took the top one and he got the mid-spoiler.We got a smokin' deal on it.

Smokin? It felt like I payed a penny for it compared to others. Should we say how much Kev?

That's a smart way of cutting cost.

Well here is how the story goes.I found the spoiler kit on ebay. At first the seller had a reserve on it and I was bidding on it. Well I won the auction with $102.50 but did not meet the reserve. I contacted the seller to see if he would sell it to me for that price or if I could find out his reserve and possibly meet it. He never replied to me and he reposted it without a reserve the second time.I wanted the mid spoiler and I found out Kevera wanted the top spoiler. So we became business partners. Well we won the second auction for a much lower bid. The good thing about it was that the seller was in Canada and Kevera was able to pick it up. So no shipping charges. But as in how much we won them for - $23.00.
