Some G8 appearance mods

I decided to remove the PONTIAC and the GM emblems on the rear and sides of the cars. It looks much more symmetrical and cleaner IMO.

j0n stopped over and gave me a nice idea which was to swap the lettering of the G8 and GT. I went to work and got them swapped so now the rear will read G8 GT as opposed to GT G8.

It was raining today so I only got one pic. Pretty easy to do. More pics will come and I'm sure you know what those little GM badges look like so no need for a pic really.

I like that much better, great idea j0n! I don't know why Pontiac did the trunk badges that way on the G8, when their own G6 is written the "correct" way.

I like a little bit of emblems on the car and the pontiac emblem doesn't bother me. Maybe if it clashed on a different color I would.

Looks good Brian. I'm leaning toward debadging when I get my G8 GXP.
