If you can't see the sparkplugs or wires when you first open the hood do you just take the big black plastic cover off to find them. Also, does anybody know where I can find performance parts for the vibe. Thanks<br><br>http://www.familycar.com/RoadTests/PontiacVibe/Images/Engine.jpg

Its OK to dig. The plugs and wires should be on the front and possibly under that cover. Digging into stuff like cosmetic covers is fine. You wont' hurt anything.
Performance parts for the vibe can be found at the BMW dealer. Bring your title :D Just kidding. You can pep it up with the standard bolt-ons but for serious upgrades take a look at what you'd spend on making the power you want versus the cost of a trade up to something with a V6 or V8. If its just speed you seek, there are thousands of other cars for the same money that will be much faster.

Jokes are never funny when you have to explain them. See the next sentence? I said "bring your title." As in, trade the vibe on a 3-series.. get it? Performance parts... hahaaahha... Why am I the only one laughing? :nono:

we call that the "radiator cap overhaul"
Thats where you take the radiator cap off your car, then buy another car and put the old radiator cap on the new car. Then you say its the old car.... . "slightly modified"
Depending on the two cars in quesiton, this can lead to some rather funny looks. Trying to explain how the Mitsubishi Eclipse is actually a "modified" honda civic, can definitely cause some you-are-crazy looks.
Its entertaining to some of us anyway :D
