  • So.... out of boredom.

    I'm currently painting my headlights.... Had them red and in but I didn't like them, so now I'm going to black.....

    In the meantime, whilst priming again, I got a little bored. I had two arrowheads from a G5 kicking around (no prongs), so I decided to take a cue from the Solstice and dropped them on the door just north of where the GM badge of excellence would of been.....



    Cam phone pic.... this is just tacked there in this pic, so it is straightened up now.. Looks alright.

    Might try and find badges from a Wave as they're a wee bit smaller.. might look just that much better.

      Nice. I'd prefer that over the GM badge. To me though the red on red looks a bit weird, but in person I bet it looks great.

              Even when I saw it on my buddy's Cobalt, I thought the GM symbol looked out of place. The arrowhead looks sharp, I may have to do that.
              Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that shit.

                Yeah getting rid of the GM badge was actually the first modification to my car that I did, right after removing the dealer plate border.

                If I can get black inlays I'm going to add them to the mix eventually... Been thinking on doing that for a while anyway, but now with the arrowheads on the sides too, i think it is a must. It'll blend nicely with the black (tints, wheels, lights, etc.) and the chrome (handles, window trim, lower grilles).

                    Took off the GM badge about a year ago.

                    Going to see how this turns out.

                    Car is out of commission while I'm doing the lights, so I figured I'd do this now and be able hold them in place while they adhered with painters tape.

                      I think that it looks kinda hot! Be creative!
                      Dont BOV or your going to cause a boost spike and leak blinker fluid causing you to lock up your muffler bearings.

                          I think that looks Awesome!
                          Something funny...
                          I spent about 2 hours trying to compare the g5 "arowhead" symbol with the G6 with just pictures and i clicked on this thread and !!!!
                          :warped:

                          I wasnt thinking of what you had done im planing on getting a aftermarket badge that fits the "G5" Front/trunk
                          And i have a 6

                          So is it possible to see if they look similar in size?

                          And i think black would be the shiznat.

                            The side arrowheads are a little oversized. You should try to hunt down 2 REAR arrowheads from the Solstice. They are relatively small.
