Well here is the next installment of the front reconstruction of the Vibe. This mod looks mean, I'm calling the car the Pontiac Mantis. It'll be a couple of weeks before I can get back to the body shop to finish this, but hey, it's on, it's strong and I have a couple of weeks worth of testing to see how it performs. In addition, I deleted the passenger side mirror, which is not noticeable in the pics. So Enjoy ...

Now here is my question. My own tests aside, would it be better to completely seal the front end lower skirt or leave the scarab like pinchers in the front .. LOL

Laterz
