I believe the 1968 GTO was the first use of stickers as an emblem on a Pontiac (side stripes not included).
Think how futuristic this was, as less than 10 years later, most high-performance models were adorned with all sorts of stickers, and the body colored "bumperless" look became standard in the 1990's.

Parents" 1967 Grand Prix Hardtop had a "frost white" "GP" decal on the passenger front door 1-piece door glass. Does that count?
The rare 1967 GP convertibles still used wing-vents and separate window door glass...so no "GP" decal...IIRC
