Well I was at a car show the other day as im sure some of you know and I found a gentleman selling atomotive emblems. I gave him 10 dollars for all the pontiac emblems i could find. So i took 3 emblems and 2 "Grand"'s. This is what I have achieved so far. On of the emblems, the one on the car now, I think is off of an old Bonneville probably mid 90s. But i like it because it has the old school reflective material inside. I polished it up and mounted it. I also cut up the red "grand" and put it on the grill. Leme know what you guys think.

The "GP" is a cool idea, I just dont think the placement is right, I like it up there, just not jammed so far into the corner

you can order a new vynil over lay for cheap from reflective concepts thats what i had on mine for a while. Reflective red is nice. For one like this you could just look on ebay for replacement pontiac emblems

..or overlay your old faded one with carbon fiber wrap. ;)

Looks good Trey, its a commmon mod to take 97-03 door badges and make up GP or GTP for the front grille... Had the same thing on my 98 GTP.

so i just got my new sticker or maybe you will call it an emblem. but i was wanting to know what you think.

the red plastic that is inside the crome arrow head is all broken and missing chunks and is coming un-glued.

so the question is should i go ahead and take out the rest of the red plastic that is pink now i might add, or just something else?

thanks i am hoping to put it on this weekend.

so i was going to put a picture on here, but non of the pictures showed what i was meaning.

basically the 3 corners of the red plastic insert are all coming out and un glued.
the bottom of the red plastic insert is broken off about 1/8th of an inch.

so do you think i should just stick the new vinyl overlay on it like it says or pull the red insert out and just put it in there like that?

Very nice. G6 Pontiac Arrow's apparently are highly liked among the GP crowd on another forum and Firebirds.

I don't think we have anything at our PAP, but I'll check this morning.

i have thought of the newer ones, but they are much bigger, and would stick out a lot. but i will try the dealership and see what they charge.

A GM dealer should be anywhere from 15 to 30 dollars for one
