    I noticed that towards the bottom of my front arrowhead emblem, about 3cm up from the bottom point, I have a chunk of the emblem missing about 2cm in size :/

    Anyone have any ideas on how to fill this in, or a site that sells the actual emblem and not just the overlay?

    Reflective concepts make replacement arrowheads in a bunch of different color combinations. Got mine all black with a white star.
    EDIT: Nevermind...they are just overlays for the 04+

    03 GTP...Its got pulleys and stuff.

    You could do what i did. Just chip out all the red pieces, put it on a flat surface, and pour in some resin until its up to the level you want it. You can then either get an overlay or paint it whatever color you want.

    I have the same issue. I plan on either filling it and then using an overlay. Or using a near perfect one I have from a Junkers. And using an overlay lol. I'm going with a silver and "Bermuda blue"(actual car colour name, not bleen)

    Yea I guess I should just fill the small chunk in and place an overlay over it!

    Thank you all!

    Bondo will be my friend! Since I have to repair this emblem...you guys think me changing it to black along with black front/rear inlays from Reflective Concepts would be sweet on my greystone metallic car?

    Or should I stick with red?

    I probably wouldn't use bondo if i were you. The arrow head doesn't sit flat, at least on the 04+ bumper, so it could crack when you put it back on.
