Got this on Ebay for 5 bucks to cover the Vibe 'shield'. Kinda funky, GF loves skull things.Looks better in real life.Stock:Skullfactor!!Still needs some micro trimming to be perfect, but it's OK for now.

So is that to symbolize the death of Pontiac or are you creating a new brand?Good work on the stick on either way.

Love it, how'd u get rid of the ''star'' in the center of the Pontiac symbol so it all looks flat?

I've thought about getting that as well, it just doesn't look evil enough for me. I may just have to break down and get it bc I doubt there will be any others.

It looks awesome. I covered the stock emblem too, but not with a skull.

Didnt get rid of the star at all, he designed it so it lays right over the skull.Heres the link on eBay:

I like the Pontiac symbol, but the skull looks good. Almost 3-D.

Just ordered one. I'll be debadging everything else when it gets here (or painting the badges, not sure yet). I'm also drawing up a custom plate for the front bracket, time to customize a little

Thanks Kincaid,Actually the 'star' underneath the emblem makes it a true 3-D, the ridge it makes is dead center of the frontal lobe.Normally, I don't put skulls and the like on my vehicle (Too Goth for my tastes). But My GF likes stuff like that. Shes hot, and that makes it OK.Fortunately, these are close-up shots of the emblem. From a distance you hardly notice it.

Oh yea, she even looks like the type that would put a skull on the nose of the car too.Nice catch though.

So I'm starting to have my doubts about this seller on ebay. I got my decal and the printing was screwed up I guess. Looks okay, but on the lower left edge of the arrowhead there's this blocky white strip, part of the offset printing I suppose but its actually on the decal itself. I sent a message to the guy four days ago (just asking for an exchange, not a refund) and haven't had a response. Wrote him again today, we'll see.

Sorry about that bodhi.If you look closely at mine, I have the same 'offset' on the emblem.Definately a printing error. I noticed it immediately, but at least on mine it's so small it's hardly noticable from one foot away.I hope he can swap you out, but as a printer myself, they may all be this way.Good luck.MSAGRO

This new one also has the white blocky bit to it, though. I figure they are all like that. On yours, once its on the car it doesn't seem very visible at all.Sooo.. if anyone else is interested in one of these, I now have two. Guy didn't want the original back. He sells 'em for $7, if anyone wants my spare it's yours for $5 shipped. IM me if interested for paypal details, and I'll post this in the for sale section as soon as I get mine installed.

that thing is awesome. It's giving me ideas. What is the actual size of the decal?
Re: (bodhi_tree777)

bodhi, it's not a decal, it's a 38mm glass hologram, the same size as the Vibe button in the steering wheel.Look at the youtube video.

looks really slick. I'm jealous of your dash lights as well, I have the crappy "all-orange" cluster.
