Default Hood Emblems

I was wanting to get everyone's opinions. The 1967 Mustang models, have F-O-R-D emblems on the hood. Would it be stupid of me to buy some from 1967 and place on my 05 model. Here is a link:

Those looked dated even in '67....I'd say "pass"

I've seen it done and i love it. Its your opinion that matters, noone else's. If you decide you dont end up liking it, take it off and i'll buy them from you.

Here, this is an s197 that has it and i think it looks great. It shows a closeup at around 1:20

I agree, it is YOUR opinion that matters most. One thing I have noticed with these cars is they all can have a unique look-style-theme. The FORD might work on some, not on others. It worked for me - but rarely gets noticed at the show because the hoods always up! Only people who know Mustangs, will notice - the older guys (than own REAL 60's Mustang) comment. Tip, you can find "stick-on" versions of these, no pins. Try ebay, or I think I got mine from Ohio Mustang.

Thanks for the responses. I appreciate the youtube video, which allows me to see what it would look like. I think the more I look at it, the more I am leaning towards getting it. I mean if I don't like it, its not like it was an expensive set of emblems and I could always take them off. Thanks.
