Well..definitely adds some aggresiveness to the 05', that's for sure..I can't say it looks horrible, either. Not compared to most of the kits i've seen.

Love the KIT! you sure had better sell us or our anger here towards all the "we don't make Vibe kits" will be directed at ya I parked my 04 next to an 05 at work today to see how the front end differs and there is nothing different about it at all other then it has a solid grill in the front (lower) and mine is split. But otherwise the whole lower fascia is the same.

But my problem is I tow a 1500 boat behind the Vibe. I think any mods to the suspension or body would get seriously screwed if I was hauling the boat. Can anyone give me any input on this, am I cursed to a mildly modded vibe??

No, I checked the max is 1500 Lbs. the boat is a bit over 1400, I was just rounding for simplicity sake.

looks like it's just an OEM cf hood. nothing real special.

Put a huge R sticker in the middle of it and you may have the fastest car in the world.

I'd consider putting the 05 front on, just so I could fit this kit. That looks great!

It's unique, that's for sure. It definitely addresses the 'not aggressive enough' complaints about the 2005 front end. Not exactly my cup of tea, but I'm not in the market for a bodykit anyway, and I have an '03.

It's not a photo, it's a representation of what the kit might look like when it's completed. That's why everything is exagerated looking. I doubt it will actually look like that when it's done.

That looks pretty sweet, but for production, I think the front inlets just above the fog lamp inlets should be ommitted. While they may be considered a bit ricey, I like the gills

Quote, originally posted by Psychovibe »Here is the new pic of the new body kit were working on for SEMA. Let me know what you think. It will be available for the 05 first. then remade for the others soon after.That's pretty wild. It really changes the look of the car. Seems like there are a lot of members here who have been waiting a long time for someone to finally make a body kit for Vibe. Others (like me) aren't really into bodykits and such, but it looks like it will turn a normal average Vibe into a very unique one (unless you sell a ton of them ) From the pic it looks like there is very little ground clearance under the front lip, but also from the amount of space above the front tire, it looks like the car has not been lowered. Seems like the people that buy the bodykit would also be likely to install lowering springs, is there enough clearance to do both?

The hood is different! Or at least it will be. We are designing a new cf hood that is vented. it is similar to another hood, just don't know which one. I'll try to find a pic.

There is some clearance. The car with a 3" drop suspension will be far enough from the ground so you can still drive it. We don't believe in making things to intentionally be broken in the real world.

Not bad. I'd have to see it on a 03-04 to make the call. I dont care for the new mini van looking front on the 05's.
