I have a black 03 Mach1, and was concidering putting Centenial badges on the side to replace the pony emblems (to v6-ish for me). I was wondering if anyone has done the same or replaced them with anything better...

I dont like most of the emblesm I have seen that say 4.6 and such(excluding oddly enough the pony emblem that says 4.6 above it).

Just looking for suggestions.

How about the ones that say Mach 1? Those kinda remind me of the 4.6 badges and I really don't like those either. The 40th badges look the best. Glad I don't have to change mine because if I had an '03 I'd be in the same boat as you.

I wouldn't put 40th or centennial badges on an '03, because it's not a 2004 model. I personally like having the V6-style front fender emblems on a black mach, it adds even more to the incognito look.

Why not? the centennial was in 2003.

Yes you're correct, I went brain dead and forgot about Ford's 100-year anniversary badging. By all means go for it, but then you'll be sporting badging that is only correct for a common GT.

People already see the side and think its a v6 :-P

I don't know that most people, outside of those who own or are interested in Mustangs, would know that the running pony emblem is indicative of a V6 model.

lots of people think..no GT emblem..no snake..its a v6

[Crzyhrse]

Lots of people are idiots.

I guess I must be too old to see that logic! Having been a Mustang lover all my life (I'm 46) and having owned 11 Mustangs from a 64 1/2 to my 03 Mach that running horse emblem means "Mustang" to me. I am glad Ford put it on the 03 Mach's as it is a symbol of the great heritage these cars have!

So they see the side badges and miss the hood scoop? I think centenial badges would be ok.

I've had people ask me where I bought the scoop...about 80% of the drivers in my area are Ricers.

You need to move!

Since my previous Stang was a 97 Cobra, I was a bit dissappointed @ first that I only had little ponys on the fenders. Every1 knows what those snakes on the fenders mean. But now I actually like having the pony emblems more, because then people dont know what I have. Im hoping some dumbass ricer thinks i have a V6 and tries to race me. PLEASE....

Wow, that's just dumb! I had an '02GT that the dealership put an aftermarket hoodscoop on and most people thought it was a Mach 1. That's one reason I got rid of it, I didn't like it being a "Mock Mach" as some called it. I walked out to the car once and found two people arguing pretty good over whether or not it was a Mach 1. The guy who thought it was looked heart broken when I said it wasn't.

Here's a picture of that car:



and when I tried it in for the Mach 1

[32valves]

the hood screams...not a mach1 hehe, did look good though.

What about a Centennial badge just above or below the Mach1 letters??
