I was just wondering if anybody had a front emblem they wanted to get rid of?

 

You want one that's not fading, peeling and looking like crap, right?

 

Check the classifieds or eBay.

 

ebay has them for 30 shipped. brand new.

 

I just went to my local dealer and it was about $35 - $40 for a new one.

 

I wonder if it will chip and peal like ours do.

 

I think it is a crap shoot on the front emblem. I've seen older trucks with no problems at all. My 01 Expedition emblem looks brand new while my 07 screw emblem had to be replaced as it peeled and faded.

 

the front and back emblems on my 07 are crappy looking. has any on tried taking one and peeling all the blue off and making it just chrome, sort of like an acetoned side badges. not sure if it works the same or at all but intend to try sometime

 

Now my back one looks great.

 

I repainted my original one. You wont get the blue off and still have a nice looking emblem, I can tell you that. I did a flat black though that looks pretty nice.

 

my back emblem is looking pretty crappy starting to bubble the paint off

 

My 2004 emblems look fantastic still. Lucky me . Maybe get 04 05 model emblems. The 2006+ font bulged emblems have nothing but faded unhappy reviews.

 

let me know where you guys are getting yours. id like to get one, but when i called tasca, they said they dont sell the kind that bolt in anymore, just the ones that double side tape in, and they were like 30 bucks.

 

My Ford dealership replacement was both tape and sort of a bolt on type deal. There are two plastic pins that you use a self-cutting nut on once you push it in the grill. I also toyed with getting a custom one from here: http://www.billetbadges.com/products_ovals/
