Actually the front one went on very easily. Cleaned all with alcohol and went fine. I wish that they had sent the red arrows with the same tape over the decal that they send with the VIBE lettering. This way you don't have to touch the adhesive with your fingers..

Had a rag snag on it a few times over the years.Here are the shots of mine before I was rear ended last week:

Joli & Herb, Decals/overlays look good. Thanks for sharing your pictures.I finally ordered some today from Grafxwerks too. There are so many colors it was hard to choose. I had to keep going outside to look at my Vibe and consider the colors against the fusion/orange background color. I didn't want black so I got silver metallic "vibe" overlays, royal blue metallic "Genvibe.com" overlay for my roof rack, royal blue metallic arrowheads. It should get here in a week to 10 days. Any advice about the best way to put them on? I know somebody said clean the surface with alcohol first but what about that front arrowhead challenge? How did you finally get that on there?

I cleaned mine off with a little 3M general purpose adhesive remover, then some alcohol, both times using a Qtip. The badge overlays were spaced perfectly and with some patience and no wind they went over quite easily. The pontiac arrow was a pit more challenging because you have to peel it of and hold it gently ( use two pairs of tweezers if you can to avoid getting skin oil on the sticky side) . It would have been better placing the arrow if it had a piece of tape on the other side to help align it.. Jezz now that I think about it you could try to use a piece of blue painters masking tape to pull the arrow off the backing and that way you can align it easier. Hope it works well

Joli,Thanks, I'll try those tips. I do have that blue painters tape too.

Today i finally washed the Vibe and put on all the decals and they look great but by the time I finished it was too dark for pictures. I didn't want black so I got silver metallic "vibe" overlays, royal blue metallic "Genvibe.com" overlay for my roof rack, royal blue metallic arrowhead front and just silver for back arrowhead, and silver flames. The front arrowhead was a challenge with the cutout for the star but the navy w/ silver edge looks sharp against the fusion orange body color. Wait til you see!I'll take some pics tomorrow.

I've really got to re-think these.. At first I was like nah... don't need them... but now I'm liking them more... I might have to do a blacked out look...

Here are the pics of my grafxwerks decals.http://s278.photobucket.com/al...0Vibe/ ... l...4.jpgI got silver metallic "vibe" overlays, royal blue metallic "Genvibe.com" overlay for my roof rack, royal blue metallic arrowhead front and just silver for back arrowhead, and silver flames. The only thing I'm not happy with the airbag overlays for the visor cause I already peeled off the airbag warning stickers and so the overlays are not sticking to the visor fabric. I think they would stick better to the sticker than the fabric.
