Default Removing GT Emblems

Has anybody removed their GT emblems off the sides of their Stang, did they come off pretty easy? Im gonna put my STEEDA emblems there instead.

its super easy.... I took mine off to put the tri-bar pony ones on. There will be 2 holes on each side once you take them off.

Get yourself a house hair dryer.....wife or girlfriend...

then get some fishing line. wrap one end to one finger and the other end to your thumb. heat the emblem up then take the string with a back and forth motion between the logo and the paint/car and work it down. you are going to have to work around the 2 post that sit into the car top by the T and lower middle left by G. Also you might have keep the heat on it alittle bit. The string might break a few times. Just take your time. I used some degreaser to clean off the residue once they where off. Any more questions just ask.

I did that over a year ago. Put a set from a 66' on. Long before the pony package was offered and long before everyone else started doing it. Now I am considering putting the GTs back on because it just isn't unique anymore []

I want to go with the naked look (no emblem at all). Anyone have a suggestion on how to do this?

I hear ya, I did b/c I have a 66 and wanted to mimic the look. But when Ford came out with the Pony package again I was kinda bummed.

That's what I'm thinking about too but if there are holes behind the emblems then we might have to get them filled and that whole panel painted, which might not be worth it!

Very easy with a hair dryer and start at one end and lift as you heat up the #3M adhesive it will start pulling away very easily and completely from the paint then use acholol to clen the area and prep the area!

Holes need to be welded. ...only by someone with lots of experience, this steel is very thin and prone to shrinkage/warping. Panel paint match would not be a problem for a high end, experienced shop. Could get rid of antenna or switch to nice power unit in the process.

Course, 07 GT CS fenders don't have holes, but that's a rather pricey way out.
