Did a quick Photoshop on my car on what I was talking about. Something like this.

I've always been partial to my 281 with Chevron in place of the GT emblem (fits over top the two holes). Tell Tom Alan sent you.

Here's a shot of the emblems on my car...

Tom, you may not remember but it was your ride that inspired me to go with the DD bullitts on mine, and I am so glad I did.

I also really like the 281 chevron...way cool, and much better than the stock GT logos. I have made the decision to elminate the GT from all but my License plate...

see pics below...no more GT on my pony but the plates...

your car looks great...and i like the rockers as is...very original....i also like some of the suggestions to swap out the fender emblems....the 281 or the tribar are both good ideas...and is your car sponsored by brent? otherwise i would loose the ad.

Thanks for the input........ I'm starting to think that swapping the emblems may be a good idea.

And by the way to everyone who has asked, no I am not "sponsored" by Brenspeed. They just happen to be relatively close to me, have cool products, and are a great bunch of guys!

Another option for the side stripes is the ones from AutoTrimDesign (www.autotrimdesign.net) They have a GT/CS style stripe that fades just like the Ford factory stripe. They can customize it with any text or no text. You could pull off the GT side emblem and put the stripe on, then put either the factory GT emblem, or even the 281 emblem back on over the stripe. The web site is down right now for maintenance, but the stripe is just like what TacoBill has on his.

I am thinking about doing that one mine.

Remove the GT emblem and replace it w/a "Powered by Ford" emblem (like an SGT) and keep the side stripe.

That would be reasonable if they didn't cost $500 a set.

Ok, then the less expensive Scott Drake piece, http://www.shelbyperformanceparts.co...%20Emblem.aspx

Or the trusty "pony w/bars"
