Oh ok! Ha! My good friend lives over there so I visit whenever I can. Next time I come over, I'll let you know so we can cause a Vibe ruckus.

@DressedInBlack - hit me up when you roll west coast style. @09vGT - Thanks, looks like you've got some sweet tint too.

I generally don't care for the "lighter" colored cars ..... BUT man does that White look GOOD . Also, I noticed you removed the black plastic running board/rocker panel protector and replaced it with a custom "Vibe" one? Where did you get that and was it a direct replacement for the factory one? Keep that White clean and enjoy the ride

Wasn't sure what to expect, and they turned out to be stick on pieces and not complete replacements as I had hoped. They're still pretty solid though, and dress it up pretty nicely. Figured I might as well get them while I still could ...Sounds like they attach to the factory ones instead of replacing them .#19172212 - For anyone that's interested, they are $96.60 + $7.95 (handling) = $104.55 on GMPartsCenter.net and $92.99 + $10.00 (shipping) = $102.99 on eBay. The seller on eBay has 3 sets available.I've thought about getting them as they are very nice looking, but I'd be afraid they'd get scuffed up and look crappy .

Very nice! I like the sill plates. However..I'm in agreement with Carrie on getting them scuffed, my thick soled steel toe boots would probably do a number on them pretty quick, thus I haven't committed to getting them. JR

Thanks everyone! As far as the aluminum plates go. No scuffing. They are pretty rugged. Although I live in sunny Florida and don't often trek around wearing big boots. Northern climates it may be a little different story.

Thanks JTE! Next mods are mostly likely a TRD short throw shifter and painting the exhaust manifold black. Who knows from there. What have you got in the pipeline?

What have you got in the pipeline?You're welcome !Good call on painting the exhaust manifold heat shield ! It really changes the look of the engine compartment. Not much left for me. I've got Toyota chrome wheel locks that will be going on as soon as the 18s go back on for the spring/summer/fall (hopefully this weekend). I'm also going to get a Red Top battery and some SilverStar zXe bulbs for the low and high beam headlights. I am really happy with where mine is and don't have much more planned for it.I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more updates from you !
