Driver's side horse/flag emblem

Hey Guys,

My driver's side, wheel well horse/flag emblem fell off yesterday. I called the local ford dealership and they want to charge ~$40 with tax for a new one.

So I want to know if anyone knows how or where to get a new one, other than the dealership, preferably cheaper.

Thank you.

You can usually pick these up on ebay cheap, even brand new in the packaging.

Even the major retailers are cheaper than $40.

I just happened to be looking for new ones for the S/C car so that was an easy look-up.

I'm curious, how did it 'fall off'? Has this car had any body or paint work to the fender before?

I am not sure. The centering pins appeared to have snapped, and the adhesive just seemed to be getting less "sticky".

It didn't actually fall, I noticed it was coming off while I was washing it and I pulled it off the rest of the way. It was coming off so much, that I am pretty sure during the next drive I would have lost it.

The driver side has never had any work. The passenger side did about a year ago. My brother borrowed it and sideswiped a tree. I had to replace the whole left side...cosmetically. No mechanical damage.

I'd say eBay I've seen them for 20 bucks or so for a set, your going to have to use the extra and the broke one as bed room decor that's what I did with my stock spoiler and grille

This. Ebay ones are generally kinda cheap and flimsy. I replaced the GT side emblems with the Running Pony emblem and got em both from Tousley.

Why not just get some new 3M tape and put it back on?
