Well the part owner/maybe owner? His car was in the 'tuner' section of this past car show at the convention center.

his car was also fetured in scc I believe a few months back.

Car looked great.

I actually have went to Good Vibrations for a lot of work. Not just tint and what not. He also does installs, last I heard they just did an exhaust on a S4 (which is not an easy task at all). Carl (the owner) is a very reputable guy and is great to deal with. He doesn't fluff up or BS you at all very honest. If you go, you will see a lot of DSM's because that is his forte.

As for tint or anything ricer-like he has great deals and I would recommend him to anyone in the area. KrautFed20v just got tint on his GTI, and the job was done by Good Vibes.

they're a little over priced, it depends what you want to get done. headunit install is probably cheaper somewhere else depending on what kind of unit. and for tint or something id go to car optics or car pretty... if its motor work or something, like sandra said dsm's are his specialty... if its for a honda or something id suggest somewhere like impo..

AHAAHHAAH take it to impo, yea thats would be a good choice.


Everytime i have ever dealt with good vibes its been great. I know friends who have had work done and everything has worked out awesome. Im just unsure on there pricing since i neevr actually had them touch any of my own cars.

The IMPO is the biggest rip off shop in the area. Good Vibes is very familiar with Hondas and have completed many projects with them including an awesome turbocharged RSX project which was a beast.

I don't think tint or work is overpriced at his shop at all. It's very fair and reasonable on top of great quality.

Then it was at the old shop across the street, and we were called "Good Vibrations Car Audio". I worked there for 9 years, so it was probably me that did your alarm. Glad to hear it's still working.


If you want a head unit done cheap, go to Best Buy, but remember that you get what you pay for.

As for Hondas, they've done plenty of B swaps, turbo kits, headers, AFCs,.... Like Sandy said, they also work on Audi/VW, whatever ya got.

There is also a Montgomeryville Store. If it's the same car we are both thinking of it was a Silver 3rd Gen Eclipse that was S/C'ed with blue sticker vinyls all over. All decked out with a Veilside wing, lambo doors, sub glassed into interior, etc.

I was thinking of that new place that just opened not to long ago called Vibrations. Its on that road right off the Bristol exit of 95.


But on a brighter note..Good Vibrations hooked me up with a great deal on a distribution block and some fuses so I could relocate my battery

Just found this post...

In regards to the third gen Eclipse out front. The car was originally done in Cali from another shop that hacked the car to death. We simply did the custom audio install on the car and some other misc stuff.

And, yes it still rubs...that would be the big brake kit with the wrong wheels on it...again, the car came to me that way. And, the customer doesnt want to fess up to change em...

Jess...to answer your question. Overpriced? I ask you to find a private shop with cheaper prices than me in my area. If you do...then compare the work and the reputation they have on the street.

Also, you cannot compare my prices to Circuit City (sidenote - she works there) - for equipment I am the same...but for labor - oh no, little different. I do not have the pockets nor the 16 yr installer salaries that they pump into their install bays.

Im not getting defensive - but so many people make comments about how expensive we are...blah blah blah. Open your own shop and lemme know what it takes to pay the bills before you start making comments that have no merit.

We do good work - I can assure you of that. Are we perfect? No, very few shops are and cars can be tricky. At the end of the day...we are not a 'fly by night' shop. We have been in business since 1989 and offer a lifetime labor warranty with no b.s. exclusions.

Also, we ONLY have two locations - Horsham and Morrisville. The Lansdale store was closed a long time ago...
