Aftermarket parts for 2004

Post by Noodlez »

I just picked up my base 2004 Vibe and I am looking to dress it up. Last week I started with a power sunroof and the darkest tint I could go legally. Now I want to do the rims and rubber as well as trim it inside with details. I reside just outside of Toronto and I am having a tough time finding aftermarket parts for Vibe's, such as the new style tail lights ,trim plates, etc. A couple of shops I have gone to have sluffed me off, kind of laughing that I would even waste the time on a Vibe. Are the Matrix parts and the Vibe parts interchangable? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Honestly. Any part that you can find for the 03 base will fit the 04 base. I would know cuz I have a part for a 2003. I would recommend these sites for you.http://www.performancecenter.comhttp:// ... ing.comand also check out if anyone has anything for sale that you may want.Inder Singh

not much of parts, buthttp://www.grafxwerks.com for overlay decals and other misc. decals.I also bought window vents (in channel, not stick on) and a bug/stone protector for the hood, all from http://www.weathertech.dom. I have seen a few of the posters here have them on their cars.

I can give you the number to a guy who did my tint, its awsome and dark. as for aftermarket parts? yeah... kinda SOL on that one Rims and tires are easy to get, I know a few good places, but for places laughing at you, they haven't seen some of the vibes here that could rule their dumb (removed) common as sand imports any day.

aww, too bad you just missed our vibe/matrix meet on saturday! could have given you some great ideas for dressing up any vibe. check out the ontario forum and look thru some of the pics of the various vibes and trixes.exterior parts for the trix will NOT fit the vibe. however, interior parts for the trix will. engine parts also fit the vibe. for interior, you can add a leather kit from katzkins (like i did), redo your dash either with paint or dash kits, knobs, steering wheel covers (wheelskins look the best), LED's inside or out, etc.exterior you can lower the vibe, add wheels/tires, exhaust, graphics, etc. no a/m altezzas or tails. but plenty you can do to them. just keep checking out the site and you will find plenty of folks have been creative!welcome to genvibe!

wow, how soon some forget! check out http://www.rsmracing.com/world/main.htmGrant was at the meet and you can see pictures of his black vibe from the meet in the aforementioned forum (Ontario topic).while it says 'coming soon' on the link at the rsm site, click on it and you'll see a list of parts and prices (in canadian).......and if i remember correctly, i think there's a discount if you mention genvibe? (they're based in Mississauga)
I have signatures turned off so I'm not even sure what mine says in this space!
