I really like the look of the side emblems, and so i was checking v8sho.com to see how to get them on.......and found this : http://www.v8sho.com/SHO/eshoemblems.html

couple questions though, the part number they give out, I would assume that is the ford part number, since it comes up on searches for ford parts - but the 15.01 price, is that if you buy it through a ford dealership or a certain place? Every site i've found charges 30+ for one set of emblems

Depending on when that write up was written would determine the price. Parts do not stay the same price for all time. They likely went up after that was written.

When I got my sho the emblems were already on the sides above that thing that goes down the doors near the bottom. You might be able to find some emblems at the junkyard off the back of a sho if you are lucky

Our local pick a part would only charge a few bucks.... but you would have to do your own adhesive and everything. I hav'nt see any 3rd gen's out there in the past few days but if I were you I would try e-bay. BTW I switched out my square V8 badges for the explorer retro V8 badges and they only cost me $27 at the local for dealership.... I'm not sure if you can see them in my avatar but they look really good.

Prices went up, it's more like $40 per one emblem. If you can't get them through a dealer and go to a source for obsolete parts or just a warehouse, most likely they will double the price if they're the only one with it.


BTW, I have a silver one new in the wrapper. Got it for a guy who never paid up. If interested, let me know.

fordpartsnetwork.com is out of the black ones. I bought a pair in July. I tried to order one more this week and was told they have been discontinued. I tried a couple of other places on the net and they are out. Maybe the dealership can get them for you. Someone on this forum bought the emblem that is on the vanity cover of the SHO and put them on his car. Looks really awesome. That's another option, anyway, if you can get those.

I took mine off the bumper and put them in the grill.


Can you post a pic or link to a shot of the back of the car.?

I am at the point where I havent ordered new badges yet and the old ones are off. I'd like to see if I like the way it looks cause then I'll just fill the holes instead.

Thanks

Hey, WifeofSuperHo, that is exactly what I paid for mine! I can't wait to get the ugly V8 ones off and put those on. Were the others hard to take off? Did you have to buff and touch up the area? Thanks!

I don't know about the removal because I had a bodyshop take them off when they fixed my front passanger fender from and accident so of course that side looks good, the drivers side looks like crap cuz you can still see alittle of the square. The guy who was doing the repairs really didnt wanna put those on cuz "I was taking away from the rare'ness of the SHO" as soon as I can get my pics on photobucket I'll post one of the emblems here. I tried yesterday but I wasnt doing something right.
