Default gxp badges

so i ordered a red gxp overlay (as it is a black car) and was thinking i have a extra gxp door badge what do you think about putting it on the passenger side dash? and what do you think about the overlay on it as well

was thinking of doing that or puting the gxp badge on the trunk in place of the v8 badge

Put it on the deck lid, seen it a few times looks good. I just ordered 4 new one to rebadge my car, $16.

Doing something different with mine.

I had one there, but it didnt want to stay. Probably wasnt clean enough, my guess is from armor-all residue on the dash that I couldnt get off. Looked good while it stuck though, lol. I say go for it, just make sure the dash is as clean as possible.

If you put it on the dash, don't just clean it, rub some alcohol on the spot where you want to put it. Took my just cleaning 3 times to mount the DashHawk to figure it out...

I put an emblem on the dash. one on the rear deck lid above the V8(i also put "PONTIAC" above "Grand Prix". I also put one on each floor mat. Some may think it's overkill but i like it.

Sorry to bring back an old thread, but this is where I put mine....It looks a little off center in the pic because I was on an angle.

IMO, that's too much for the trunk lid. I put my ls4 badges on the doors where the gxp was, and I put the gxp where the v8 was on the trunk. I also took the grand prix off the trunk

I pulled mine off the outside, totally debadged. I have the GXP badges on the inside of the front doors, right in the center of the inlay above the arm rest.
