Hey all been a long time since I posted! Finally the weather is starting to break and I washed the vibe today to find out I have several door dings on the side moldings . I also have noticed that on my drivers side door my badging says Vibe GT. Now on my passenger door it is reversed GT Vibe. Is this commen and if not how easy of a fix is that for me to do or should I have the dealership fix it?

I don't own a GT, but I'm almost positive it's reversed. How bizarre! I'd say let the dealer fix it, they have the proper adhesives...I wouldn't know what to tell you to use...

can you get a pic of that? that sounds funny! and yes, that's reversed! lol someone had a dislexic day at the factory!

To dark now but I will snap some picks tomorrow!

Never mind its correct I looked at you pictures TRD and mine matches yours! If you notice on Drivers side starting from quarter panel it read Vibe GT. and on the passenger side starting from quarter panel it reads GT Vibe! I would like it if both were even so that if you put flames on both GT badges they would pointing the same way!

It should read from LEFT to RIGHT vibe GT...on passenger side, from rear of car, on driver side, from quarter panel.

Mine goes like this.Driver Side:Fender - Vibe GTPass side:Vibe GT - FenderIs that what you're saying, or are you saying the passenger side is "GT Vibe" in that order? Reading normally from left-to-right when looking at it?

yah just like your Jahntassa! I know its correct! Grafxwerks sells the little flames to go next to the word GT but it would technically only work on drivers side since the words GT are towards the back of the car and passenger side the words GT are towards front of car! It would only work on drivers side!

I got through the Winter virtually unscaved...I washed it and was able to get a real good look.. A clay bar is only needed...I think I've fallin in love all over again

It was a mix of Cavalier body and Sunfire and Pontiac badges and emblems inside and out.

It would only work on drivers side! I have those flames and they are cut different so they match-up with the "V" in vibe on passenger side and in your case the "T" in GT on the drivers door. Where i have a base vibe so mine matches-up with the "E" on the drivers door.almost all the cars and trucks I've built at GM have all been that way, that is because you read left to right. if you want it changed, go to the dealer and order a drivers door emblem and replace the one on the passenger door.

When I used to work at Enterprise rent-a-car we had a Dodgsler Intrepid. The drivers door said Chrysler and the Passenger door said Dodge. Funny because they only sold the Intrepid as a Chrysler in Canada and could only buy Dodge Intrepids in the states....must have been built on the afternoon shift on friday!! (I used to work the GM car and truck plant in Oshawa, ON so don't be offended-i've seen it)

yeah, mine says 'Vibe GT' all the way around. that's whack!

Quote, originally posted by scherry2 »are you sure?better check...i'm positive.look at it on the driver's side. it reads "vibe GT" from left to right.now... imagine pulling that off and walking around to the passenger side with it and sticking it on the door. it would still read "vibe GT" from left to right, so the GT would now be toward the front.

It wasn't a "Factory Error". The badging is all placed by a machine with a template, making such an error impossible. Check and make sure there was no body work done to that side of the car.- Ryan

I don't think you can do it without the vibe GT looking backwards Blake31: I stand corrected, i replied before I thought. sorry

LOL! This whole thread has made me laugh!

I noticed this after a car wash. I must have gotten hit in a parking lot or something. Damn I hate some people

Yah I just noticed after looking at an angle that someone has hit my vibe on the front drivers quarter panel! It looks either like someone bounce a ball off of it or the hit it with there foot or something no chips and no marks just a nice smooth dent ughh!
