Looks a bit too much like the flaming chickens on the 80s Trans Am. Not for me, but it you like it, enjoy!

You do realize they would have to pull aweful hard to get that emblem off, don't you? If it is on like most automotive emblems it has some very strong double sided tape on it. In fact, they would be more likely to break the emblem before hey could get it off of the car. The only way to get it off easy is to heat it up with something like a hair dryer first, and I don't now many people that carry around a cordless hair dryer with them.

I don't think it's really necessary, but it is tasteful.

Not for me, but good for you.

My only problem is, the stripes across the pony are vertical, whereas the sides of each window are slanted diagonally. This makes the emblem look somewhat out of place.

Otherwise, not bad at all!

I agree with you that it looks odd with the angles there. No matter how level you put it, it's going to look slanted because of the angle of the windows. I'm not sure if I like all the badges either... the GT as well as the running horse. You should have taken off your GT badges and replaced them with the running pony emblems. Here's what that looks like. And not too late to do that, since you just stuck them on.

Ever since I saw the new Mustang I thought it was missing something between the front and rear side windows. So this is what I did. The pony's are from previous body style on the V6 models. $13.00 a peace from Ford. I cut the pin off from behind it and stuck them on. 15 minute job for both sides.

When it comes to the comments I have received, everyone has loved it thinking that they are from factory. The people that know better have told me what a great idea. Hope you guys like it.
If ya could just get the horse without the red, white,blue stripes would look cool !!!!

I like it. I was thinking of swapping the GT emblem for the pony and have the GT emblem between the windows.
