Debadge is when you take the badges off (like grand prix gt/gtp/se and the 3800 V6)
Its reallllllyyy easy!(and makes the car look a lot cleaner) Take a heat gun or hair dryer and some fishing line or dental floss (make sure to wear gloves so you dont cut your hands), heat it up and slide the floss or string between body and badge and walllaa.
Then I took a eraser wheel on a drill and took the left over adhesive off. You can also use other stuff to remove the adhesive...but Im not sure what is safe or not safe to use on the paint.

I thought that is what it might be but thought I'd ask. I think the GTP badge is pretty cool but your car does look nice and clean without anything on the side.

It does make them look a lot cleaner. Im still getting used to the look. I saw a picture on here somewhere where a guy took his GTP badge from the side and put it on the trunk like I did with the GT and it looked pretty awesome. If you are careful when you take the badges off you can reuse them. I just sanded the icky stuff off the back and cleaned with rubbing alcohol and used some double sided sticky tape I had laying around.
Let the creative juices flow and have fun!

You should like the Turbo's...I put mine on over the winter, not too loud but you can hear it coming. They droned at first but I moved my tips back like 1/2 inch and that fixed it...So I'd suggest clamping them and finding the right spot that gets rid of the drone before you weld them on.....Nice ride btw

looks really good, good job

Thanks!!
I'm just trying to make little mods as I go.
Mostly all exterior tho, I don't really have any intentions of doing anything performance wise besides the muffs.
It'll be all show and no go

white 2drs ftw
i need to debage and tints.... this thread reminds me how bad i want to.... my parents want me to pay it off first tho so maybe late spring ill have tints. debadge when i wax it withint the next month or so im thinking about hte same as you, 15 or 20%'s

i want pics of your car and my car next to eachother at a meet. (old and new white 2dr)

It is when all of the badges re removed from the car.

Looks great. Always nice to see woman working on her car also.

Im looking for opinions here....I'm ordering inlays soon for the rear, and some other things. And I was thinking about doing one of those large pontiac emblems on the back window. My question is...yes or no on the decal. If yes, what color? Im doing red as the exterior theme, but was between red or maybe silver?
And what are your opinions on front window banners? I will be getting it tinted, but i was also thinking of doing "grand prix" across the front.
Yes or no?

I would make the arrowhead color white if you want to put that on your rear windshield. It will match your car color, but a red arrowhead might look nice if you get really dark rear window tint.

It'll be dark, i believe i'm set on 20%
I like the white idea tho...hmmmm
I just can't decide, typical female.
and of course, the gpf.net sticker (but that would match whatever i did the arrowhead in)

I'm glad you said that, not me lol.

But, I would do white for your arrowhead, especially if you decide on getting a window banner. A red window banner would look stupid on a white car in my opinion.

Haha, well its true. I am very undecisive.

And white it is. Rear window arrowhead and the "outlined" grand prix for the front

these decals get expensive quick

Talk to Matt at Reflective Concepts. He could probably get you a deal on your stuff and it has a lifetime warranty.

Yes or no?

up to you on the decal. i've seen a few on other pontiacs and it looks alright. if you have tinted windows i would maybe do a white decal.



is this what your thinking

Yes! that is exactly what im thinking.
I'm assuming Matt at reflective concepts can make this??
I'm not finding it anywhere on his website.

i just googled pontiac emblem and this came up. i am thinking of something similar in the future, will be going with red prob tho. to match my car.

Yes, he can make it. Csssaint12 has one on the back of his 08 GP.
