All of these arrowheads seem to fade... That's what prompted me to go out and buy grafxwerks stuff.I've been watching since this was always something I was ticked off about. Just about every Vibe I see that doesn't have an overlay has a pinkish emblem back there, it's not appearing like these are isolated incidents.

Mine was faded/pink when I got it...I removed it the second day I had my car because having the Lava caused the pinkish color to look even more pink and stand out like crazy...interesting side note - the dealer wouldn't remove it for me, stating it was OEM equipment and that removal of OEM equipment could potentially void the warranty...basically, the salesman was an idiot and probably didn't want to send it to the detail shop again before I got out of there...no biggie..

I can't remember if it was "red" when I got it but I just glanced at it one day and notice it was pink! It got removed shortly after that

Never had a problem with mine on the '06 or the '04.

Mine was kinda faded when I bought it, and still is. Hopefully spring time it'll be gone.

I think I saw this very same one on an Aztek, it appeared to be of the same dimensions as the vibe one (didn't have a Vibe there to compare though to say for 100%) and of course was pink... Haven't seen this on other Pontiac models though, so some other supplier has things right.

Mine is pink as well. I will have to change that I hate the color pink.

When I was de-overlaying my vibe for trade in, I yanked the rear arrowhead overlay and it was still bright cherry red. Granted, I only had the car for a year or so before I started throwing overlays on it...

my vibe came with a pink one in back...odd the front one was red. I got the grafxwerks black carbon fiber over lays

ColonelPanic · Post by **ColonelPanic** » Thu Nov 23, 2006 10:44 am

The front one seems to be made of more UV-resistant material or somethin', I haven't seen any fade on the front. Hooray! lol

My rear arrow turned a nice peachy pink too. Its funny because I never really noticed it until about 2 months ago. Covered it up with a bright red grafxwerks overlay.As for the front, it seems to be holding up well, but it has been covered up by the bra about 95% of the time.

mine was red when i had it...i de-badged the vibe last fall.now i'm just looking for a voltz V to put on instead of the arrow in front

tnpartsguy · Post by **tnpartsguy** » Fri Nov 24, 2006 6:30 am

Mine is pink already too. I'm ordering one from a G6 Coupe. BTW, they used the Vibe rear hatch badge on the sides of the last run of Bonneville's too....keep your eyes open for Bonnie's with pink badges!!

Mine was reddish orange looking, but I've covered them few months ago with silver overlays from grafxwerks.

Yep mine was pink also, I removed it b/c I hate pink

new05vibeowner · Post by **new05vibeowner** » Mon Dec 04, 2006 12:04 am

Mine's a nice shade of Mary Kay pink, and will be removed as soon as I have a chance. Funny though, the front one is still as red as a fire engine.

has anyone figured out WHY the rear arrow heads on all of the vibes are fading this fast??

Quote, originally posted by NascarXprt Â»has anyone figured out WHY the rear arrow heads on all of the vibes are fading this fast??I believe that's becuase of exposure to that big orange thing up in the sky. Methinks the material it is made of just can't deal with the elements... Mine was really bad since the car's rear end was facing east in the morning so I guess that was accelerating the damage. I also had similar fading on the outline of the Pontiac emblem on the Vibe license frame I had.

I want glow-in-the-dark arrowheads like Honda has those glowing badges...that would be so so cool

[QUOTE=VforVIBE]BEFORE any MODS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! , what color is the arrowhead on the back of your Vibe?Here was mine (the car is only a year and two months old):Mine Looks Just like yours V.It looked like that from the dealer as wellAre these Emblems Curved in any way? because I would like to find one of the older pontiac Emblems from Like the 70's or 80's that was the deep Red, or I was thinking of a Silver emblem to Match the Brushed lettering..

silvrhawk7 · Post by **silvrhawk7** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 9:06 am

Actually I got so sick of looking at mine, that i debaged the arrow today, and are looking for a better one. Had GM not made these emblems so cheap and thin, it may have held up

WaveAction · Post by **WaveAction** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 10:18 am

no arrowhead on the back of my sunfire but the front is still red

zionzr2 · Post by **zionzr2** » Sat Sep 29, 2007 4:17 am

My arrow head just got a boost of redness!! Just applied the Red Reflective Overlay!!also replaced the driverside "ALL WHEEL DRIVE" Decal.

My baby got a nice blemish free tookiss.My rear All-Wheel-Drive decal is still factory OEM. I added a vinyl decal from GrafxWerks.com to the drivers and passenger side doors under the exsisting VIBE badge. Had to replace the driverside one due to the damage i had from the post i hit.there are pics in my Garage link

VivaVibe · Post by **VivaVibe** » Sat Sep 29, 2007 11:45 am

Mine was pink, but I bought some red reflective tape and made my own overlay. Now it's bright red again.

tnpartsguy · Post by **tnpartsguy** » Sat Sep 29, 2007 12:27 pm
