Gotti, I see where your getting at, but maybe you haven't been around in the mustang scene, or even on these forums for that long. Its hard to understand but as a GT owner, this indeed does get me pretty pissed. If a V6 Mustang makes their car look like a GT, thats fine, thats awesome, in fact it looks pretty good. But as soon as they put GT emblems on that car, its very frustrating. Don't really know how to explain it, but it does. I would never put Mach 1 or Cobra emblems on my GT, because that would take away from the actual Mach 1's and Cobra's, and what makes them special enough to use those badges.
Now as for your 40th anniversary badges, i don't find that all too bad, and you probably wouldn't of gotten that much shit, if you didnt make all those other threads, about 17x7's and shit like that.
Us Mustang owners can be very picky, because we take pride in what we do. There is so much you can do to a mustang to make it your own, but we believe it has to be done tastefully, otherwise it can turn ugly. Like this:
We spend alot of money on our cars, and most of us share the same belief as to what looks good and whats appropriate. Maybe how we approach it isn't always correct, but some might take offense to a 40th badge on an 01. Gotta expect that.
Also, I'm white. Doesn't make me rich. Doesn't make me a geek. In fact, i have a pretty good job, where i earn all my money FOR my car, and i have a pretty good looking girlfriend. I have alot of friends, and this is just a place where we can talk with others about our common interest. Mustangs.
Do whatever you want to your Mustang. Whatever your heart desires but expect to be criticized. Can't be a pussy around here because people are going to tell you like it is. If you spell bad, we are gunna laugh and say you can't spell for shit. Its all in good fun.
I like it when different people come in here and make things interesting. But they usually end up getting banned so watch what you say.
