adding to the street scene center fog light grille

So I enstalled the SS center fog light grille today and it was a real straight forward job. This is said by a guy who is not really handy.

Now that I'm done, I really like the idea of adding something to one side. I'm sure I've seen it done, but I can't find it. IT WOULD BE NICE IS SEARCH WORKS, but then you can't have everything and I'm sure the guys are busting **** to get it back up.

That said. I'd appreciate any help, examples (pics) or direction. Thanks

Lots of people including myself have put the running pony tribar on the grille. It seems to work fine there. Here's a picture of mine and also a picture of how to fab up a bracket to be sure that it doesn't come off. You might also consider buyng a powered by ford emblem and mounting it on there. I haven't seen anyone do that yet.

I think I remember that he uses epoxy, but I'm not sure.

I just used the two-sided tape that was on the tribar emblem on my car. It hasn't moved one bit since I added it. BTW, I used a SN-95 left fender tribar emblem off a GT. The size is perfect IMO. Not too big, and not too small.

Yeah, you don't have any emblem. Your car looks killer with the grill. When I had my 1st center-fog grill (the horrible KSR P.O.S), I didn't have the tribar emblem yet, so I ran it with nothing on it. I liked the look, but once I added the emblem, it just completed the look to me. You can't go wrong with the center-fog grill with or without an emblem.

Yeah i just bought the fender emblem from an 05 mustang pony package car from the parts department at my local ford dealership. It had the two alignment pins which i just bent till they broke off and used the 3m tape that came trimmed and recessed in it and i've been thru many automated washes with the brushes and it hasn't came of yet!

That's not an antenna, it's a flagpole!

I bought a 68 shelby emblem from scott drake which is metal not plastic. I then used JB Weld to attatch a bolt to the back in the center of the running pony long enough to protrude through the back of the grill and used a large washer and nut with lock washer on the back also double nutted just to be safe. It's very solid. I tried 2 ton epoxy first but it started to make a cracking noise when I started to tighten the nut. The JB Weld dosent budge.
