Default Remove Emblems?

I was thinking of removing the emblems of of my car to give it a cleaner look but thought it might look a little plain...I do have the stainless steel inserts...does anyone have any pics of their emblemless cars?

It Is Funny How You Mention This Idea,i Was Contemplating The Same Thing Yesterday. I Think The Car Would Look Clean And Also More Of A Sleeper If I Wasn't Showing The Gt Badges. I Have Even Thought Of Removing My Rear Wing.

I never thought about removing the wing...Like the look to much...I was thinking of getting the pony emblem off of some website i found...it's basically a black oval sticker with a white pony that fits the ford emblem perfectly than removing all the GT badges and placing the new "Pony" emblem over the keyhole in the truck below the 3rd brake light...or just removing everything and giving it a cleaner look. :dontknow:

If you remove the emblems, you will have holes that you have to fill. There are holes behing all the GT emblems.

Your right, it's on there by adhesive. The ones on the fenders have holes behind them.

The side emblems have holes for sure. The rear Ford oval emblem on my 98 also has holes as I was going to remove but felt the rear of the trunk panel and there holes. When I go for a repaint I will have the body shop fill them up as I dont what Mustang ,GT or Ford anywhere on the car.

I plan to get mine removed eventually and fill in the holes. I have a pair of holes in the trunk from the stock spoiler that I have to get filled in as well. gonna get that all done at the same time.

shaved badges does not equal a sleeper either :lol:

I'm not trying to make it a sleeper at all...getting the loudmouth...hard to keep that quite, I just have not seen very many Mustangs around my area with no badges and thought that would look pretty clean and different. :icon_thum

I am removing my badges because Ford did not want to cover my cracked intake under a recall so why give them any credit for what Im about to do to my car. Im making the the car that Ford should have done back in 98 not this P@$ with a cracked intake.
