Rear Badge Replacement...Pics.
Hey all,
OK, I have always been a fan of the rear medallion, badge, faux gas cap, what have you...
I like the heritage it stands for, and the throw back implications that it carries......That being said, the one thing that always bugged me about the factory badge was the fact that the key hole is exposed, and breaks up the look of it. Here are some before and after shots of my solution....
Before
After
I will probably end up filling in the "GT" on the new badge to match the blackout panel....

Hey Rich,
Yep, I agree. I am going to fill it in, no doubt. I got it at Silver Horse Racing. They have them with or without the GT, just like their fuel doors.
