Love the look, good job on the mod, I really like it!

Does this actually seal out water better than the stock GT rear emblem?
I only ask because on my own GT, I have not had water o through my emblem yet.
Mine is a 2011 though, so it could be that Ford actually addressed and actually fixed that problem on the 2011 'Stangs.

Because the UPR emblem mounts using screws and compression (for lack of a better word) rubber nuts, so no more water collecting... Thanks
