You have too much time on your hands Michelle but I LOVE the art work AND YES that would look awesome on the 09/10 Vibes Even more awesome on the Vibe GT's Maybe I can steal them on my wife's G8 GT "BOGUS" mobile. An active imagination will keep you healthy & young forever

An active imagination will keep you healthy & young forever Know what's awesome? That literally took me 10 minutes to make, just found a pic of a red g8 at the same angle and lined up the grilles/hoods, then masked and blended a bit. Easy-peasy. Cause people can accuse me of many things, but having time on my hands ain't one of them. My dad keeps joking that I should just find a custom fiberglass place to build one for me... LOL I told him I'd rather pay the mortgage

Whoa...I admit, I kind of like the look, but it gives it the dual nose look of the Aztek...it would need to be a very careful execution to avoid causing Wayne Cherry to reconvulse all over again...

Yes, perhaps you all are right... it just looks so beautiful on the G8 and the front ends (grille and headlights anyway) are just so similar in shape and style... http://www.davetech.net/pics/g8gt/DSC04769.JPG

It's pretty flat and boring by itself. What about GTO style scoops instead?
