In the age of the internet it is all too often easy to string up a vendor just based off someone's post...regardless of whether it is factually correct or not. Sometimes there is justification in complaining but if you do please make sure you have your facts in order and ducks in a row prior to opening fire.

Ok i do apologize for the misinformation. But you did not talk to me, this is info i got from a friend that called you. I do not need these emblems since i already have a pair that i bought back when BFR.com was selling the pairs. The one thing that both of us do not understand is why you have the emblems at $100 but they are on backorder and you can still buy them. The least that could happen is give some info that says they are on backorder and you will be put on a list to get them. If i were to buy them i would like to have them by next week, not 2 or 3 weeks from now depending on how many you get in next week. Again i apologize for my last post but i still stand behind my statement on adding more info that the product is on backorder.

Some vendors have access to parts that other vendors do not.....when it comes to Ford parts PPI is one of those vendors. This comes about from having connections or being priveledged to sources not everyone can tap into. If he wasn't certain he had more coming then he would not even offer them at any price. Also when it comes to parts availability for items that not everyone has you have to just accept that you get them when you can get them...everyone wants them right now but for limited items if you can get them at all, count yourself lucky

I would consider this to be very informative. Most web sales companies to not tell you ahead of time if something is on backorder, you find out after in the form of an e-mail.
They may or may not had had an actual set in stock when I ordered mine but I have ordered with them before and been very happy with their service.

Its like i said i love my emblems lol. Its just he wanted to replace his GT emblems with it and when it comes to him he wants his parts within the week if the site says they are available. I should be ordering a set tomorrow so if you stop selling them i can sell them for what we have seen them go for. By the way since i have both of you here, have either one of you been able to find an '84 SVO passanger side outside turnsignal, i am still looking for one.

Yeah i post for EAbrego sometimes since last time he posted here about TillmanSpeed not treating him right everyone flamed him off the boards then we found that CR really did leave Tillman so it cooled down. I have been here long enough that i really do not care if i am flamed i just post info that he gives me.

100.00 for two emblems is ridiculous. I bought a set of the Scott Drake ones, and couldn't be happier. 26.00 EACH. They look like the originals to boot, and fit and cover the holes very well. Plus, I believe they are some sort of metal; they were certainly heavy enough. Just wouldn't give that much for bling, no matter how good it looks.

Ever price the '93 Cobra Grill insert and pony back in 1999?!? Try over $500 for the plastic insert and $110 for the little running horse!....There are thousands of examples of things that may seem over priced but limited production is that way for a reason and why cars become collectible....it's also why the aftermarket makes knockoff products. You want something else to complain about? Go search for a set of NOS '93 Cobra OR Lightning floor mats...THEN you might have something to cry about
. Be thankful you are not trying to restore a Ferrari .

Got an e-mail today too. I guess we will be seeing some more side shots of PBF emblems.

Very nice- sarcam will get you far. LOL. I was just looking for a status update. They were on my SGT years ago, and I didn't feel like buying a crate engine to get a pair of plastic emblems.

I still think these will be released like all the other emblems. Once that happens I think you'll see them at normal prices. I bought a set from PPI for my Dad for fathers day. He loved them on my car but I wasn't gonna pay $300.00 for them.

I personally think that these should be released to the Ford dealers first. After all, they were installed on new Ford cars, and as such, dealers should be the first to be able to offer a replacement.

Good luck getting them. Like it was said, they are nearly impossible to get now. If you actually have a Shelby GT and need a new set due to a wreck, etc they do vin checks and usually make you send in the old ones and prove that it was wrecked. It's not easy by any means.
