That's b/c they look good on our cars.

I like them and i don't.....they do look good but the 5.0 emblem is something i don't really think i'd change....it'd be like changing the font that FORD is written in, ya know?

How did you get the old eblems off w/o scratching the paint, I am currently running only one emblem, the one the shop put on and have been wanting to either put the other on or go badgeless, I don't have th eballs to put the emblem on, I am afraid to make it look off or weird. Thanks

Normally, I curse the thought of messing with new 5.0 emblems... but that looks so good on the bright red, I can't think of anything on that car I'd change. I love those tribars too

That's a pretty clean looking car, go badgeless. If people don't know it's a 5.0, you don't need to be talking to them anyway.

If you want to get the old emblem you need two things.
1. A hairdryer
2. Goo Gone
Just blow the dryer on the emblem on high heat for a few minutes. The adhesive will heat up the it should come off in your hand with the slightest touch. Then just wipe the side down with goo gone to get the excess gunk off.

i just took it and rotated it until it sort of broke loose.

Well, again, thanks for the comments guys.

Today i sanded em and it is better than the major bling that the chrome had, though they are not completely dulled out.

flippin nice. I bet it compliments the rims a lot better now. Did you use the 220 grit?

 

[Lyncher]

WOW they look amazing sanded!

 

[ryan218]

ALOT better. but i think the emblems need moved up a half inch or so :shurg:
