I have just finished installing GT bumpers on my v6, dual exhaust, and a SHR rear blackout panel. Now, to not confuse my car from a GT, I want to do some badging, but I don't want to do fender badges. Does anybody know where I can get some Mustang emblems, and have any ideas as where to put them?

FIRST HERE IS THE REAR OF A 05 WITH THE PANEL (NOT MINE)



ONE EMBLEM I WAS THINKING ABOUT

Here's a retro idea but it would go on the fender and you would have to get someone to make it.

i know gt on mustangs always means its a v8 but there are other car makers who use v6's in the gt models i wonder if it would be chessy or a clever play on words to put GT V6 on there since it looks like a gt but has the 6 and your not trying to make people think its a v8

just a thought

I like the Escape badge, looks 'retro enough', like the car itself

That is the exact type of emblem I was looking for-I am sure that there should be much interest from other members, no?
Maybe someone like Midwest could make these.

Only thing that bothers me about that is when people tag their V6 with a GT emblem. Then when they race someone, they go back to whatever ricers forum they came from and brag that they beat a 05 GT.

Be proud of your V6, it looks like your trying to dress it up to be a GT.

Those V6 Escape badges would look nice, I agree. Just as long as you don't go overboard and do THIS.

Um yea.

Hmm Mine has just been vindicated. WTF was that?
In that case- WTF not go out and buy the freaking GT? if you wanted it to look like that.
