My birthday present...a little early...

Post by Reynoma »

My wife let me order my birthday present a month early (birthday in November). I would post a pic, but we cannot yet - so anybody want to guess what it is?I'll give you three clues...1) see the forum this is posted in; 2) ArcsVibe and 3) Sub-Vibe-RI'll post a pic as soon as I can.

Which one are you ordering and from where? I'm really interested in getting one, but havn't decided on one yet. Arcsvibe's is my favorite so far. I love the low profile.

I ordered the exact same one as ArcVibe ("Perfect Fit"). It is from CarBras.com. I love the way it looks.

How does it install? $50 is a good price for one that seems to fit so well.

So it is a kind of compression fit? This sounds interesting. It sounds like it can be easily installed and removed, I almost have my wife talked into it . "Honey, $60 for this is a lot cheaper than $300-500 to get the hood repainted"

I had shown my wife pictures of ArcVibe's deflector. She didn't like it, but still let me get it. Once I installed (very easy - I'm not even remotely talented in a mechanical way), she really liked it.

Johnsoax,If you do end up purchasing from CarBras.com, call the 800 number to order and tell them you saw it on GenVibe. Maybe they would consider sponsoring our site if we get enough people mentioning GenVibe to them.

Here is a link to the pictures...kind of "before and after" shots http://www.snapfish.com/share/p=5872910 ... l=19816292 I have to admit that the picture does not do the deflector justice, because of the black on black thing. It looks much better in person.
