Me like it.
Nice contrast

Maybe the V6 guys would like theirs. Like 245? Or close to that.

Thanks for the positive responses!

Mellowyellow, the badges are from www.americanmuscle.com (part# 18005). Make sure you get the sohc badge if you have a GT. (The dohc is right next to it on their website and I almost ordered it by mistake).

Sawyer, I know I've seen the badge you're looking for somewhere...

I've decided to start another thread for a badge picture library, please contribute a pic if you can.

I would suggest using fishing line or something similar if you have it. Dental floss tends to break very easily while attempting to remove badges.

Hello, I am a new member here. Been lurking around for a long while. I just purchased a mustang 3 weeks ago. I found this thread VERY helpful. I have one question though: I bought the supllies and emblems, i am ready to go, but what holds the new emblem on? If you have to remove gunk to get the old one off, do you need some type of gunk to hold the new one on?

Should have sticky tape on the back side. The page for the emblem didn't say...

Rlehm, many emblems (including the ones I used) have a peel away adhesive already on them. You can call the vendor if you're not sure. If you need to provide adhesive, all the auto stores have a bunch of products you can either apply or cut out to shape for this. Just ask them. Which emblems did you get?
