Yesterday I was extremely bored, so I thought Id take a stab at refinishing my trunk lock cover. I got it off, sanded it and then painted the back side black. Tell me what you think.

Look cool Brandon. :cool:

Hey Hottie,

I love it, but not sure about how it looks on a white Mark...I think you should mail it to me and let me put it on my black one....;) :cool:

No kidding! I want one!

SMOOCHES
MsM8

Looks good to me.

Hey MsM8,
I wanna take a stab at doing this, but I have a 97. Lucky for you I have a 94 set of tail lights laying around. If I spray it black for you, and send it to you, do you want to send me your other one?

How did you get it off? did you remove the taillights or just pry it out?

Looks good to me. :cool:

if she wont i will :)

looks nice btw

First I removed the carpet covering the nuts that hold the tailight assembly on, then I removed the nuts themselves, then there are 2 small screws that hold the center trunk lock cover onto the tail light assembly.. I removed those. Then there is a small hole in the back side of the trunk lock cover, which i decided to wrap a small screw driver with tape and pop the plastic piece out. Its a lot less complex than it seems. Hey Msm8stress! I have an extra one sitting right next to me. I can send it to you free via US mail. All you will have to do is remove the tail lights, then the TL cover.

nice job... blends in well.

You've already painted it black and silver?! SURE! I'll PM ya!

THANKS HOTTIE!!!!!!!!

SMOOCHES!

MsM8

I love that first pic, of the black on black, wondering how sharp it would look on mine, I do like the black better than the red on both....plus black would be nice if you blacked out all the lights...is that legal?

MsM8

That actually looks better than mine! :D

When you put it back on, what did you use? I used 3M trim adhesive which reacted slightly with the freshly painted backside.

Sure, but I'd have to give MarkVIII93 first dibs ;) You have a whole good taillight assembly? Mine is busted, not horrible, but needs replaced. PM if you do and let me know a price!

THANKS HUN! SMOOCHES!

how did u guys paint the center inside peice inside the chrome lincoln symbol black...mines red and after grinding it done theres no way 2 get to it?...

Well, when you pop the plastic piece out. The lincoln star is engraved I guess you could say, into the back side. All I do is sand everywhere BUT the star is. And it comes out that the surrounding is clear and the star is still chrome because the back side of the paint hasnt been touched. Then you sand the backside clear part with higher grit sp. Then you wipe the surface down with an adhesive cleaner/remover. I just used "trim black" paint. Made by SEM. The pictures dont do justice, you must see this piece in person.

That actually looks better than mine! :D

I used somaco brand 88r silicone construction sealant. It doesnt effect the paint what so ever.

So what your saying so u just sandpaper the whole back peice except for the groves where the star is and it will take my red flake away?

So what your saying so u just sandpaper the whole back peice except for the groves where the star is and it will take my red flake away?
Yeah, Just sand everywhere except for where the star is until the red goes away. If you havent even started yet... You have to get the adhesive off the back first, Then sand it down.

Who thinks that I should write up a tech article on this?

I started but theres not enough sand on the paper no more i got to go to work and get more...thanks bro i was always wondering how to change the colour i might just go straight chrome depending how it looks once it's back on the car...thanks for your time man

I think it looks great. I am just not a fan of the old style "fat" star. Thats why I did mine custom.

Its not an SVT and does not retain any SVT parts...geez people. I feel like mark owners are wanna be mustang owners.

not me bro, I owned a low 12 second Mustang for 14 years and sold it in feburary. I wouldn't sell my Mark if I had to.:cool:

here's a pic of the finished emblem installed. :cool:

right, and i feel like i should/want to put the svt badge on since thecobra engine on certain years is based off of the mark engine/similar.

and btu i dont wanna be a mustang owner, i AM one. i own 3 mustangs and 2 marks.

and in case you forgot what one looks like ;) here's 2 pic's of my old Stang.:D

thanks. i am very happy with this site so far, but i dont want to end up changing my mind. i maybe a newb here, but not to cars. so please dont treat me like a novice that is just in it for looks. if i was i would own a rotted out civic with a surfboard for a spoiler, and a fartcan muffler. thanks for the backup man.

also nice stang jc. gotta luv the fox bodies. 2 of mine are foxes. the 89gt. and the 87gt.

Oh every now and then someone get's a little testy but you will find that LvC members don't go for members slamming each other.

Pissing matches get stopped quick...

And there is nothing wrong with a Mustang... Mark VIIIs in my opinion are Mustangs that have grown up... Still have some muscle, not as quick, but lots of class..

But like maturity as long as you work out you can play with youth.

Very true Rich.... I've been in a few "disagreements" in the past but not anymore, I just refuse to. :D

Back on topic... found a slightly better pic...

i like that. you couldnt really see how much the colors match in the other pics. nice job.

I just dont see the reason behind putting SVT on your mark. You dont see cobra owners putting mark viii and lincoln emblems on their cars. I didnt try to put anybody down nor am I trying.

im not trying to start something just stating my opinion. no if i owned a cobra i wouldnt put a lincoln emblem on my car. i also wouldnt put a mustang emblem on my mark. the svt badge isnt just for cobras. many cars have that title, focus, contour, cobra, mustang cobra. it stands for "special vehicle team" im not killing the look of the car, having that tag there. im just making a point of what it has under the hood, since not alot of ppl have heard of a mark viii. and if they dont believe it (like a thunderbird with a v-tech type r emblem... yes i saw one) then all i have to do is prove it at the next stop light.

Yeah...:) I know what svt stands for. I know that there are a few svt vehicles. Last night for the first time somebody actually said "so you have the 4 valve motor right? like the cobra?" I was also just stating my opinion. I wouldnt do it. But I guess I dont have much of a problem with others doing it. Its cool.:)

hey geno, those cobra star TL covers arnt going to cost an arm and a leg are they? :D :p

Well the Mark HAD the SVT 4.6 before the Cobra. I made my Mark an SVT Mark VIII back in the Nov. 2000 MM&FF mag. I added and still have the SVT door panel treatment.

The Marks well deserve SVT badging.

YOU!

your the guy that convinced me to redo the interior pieces in my car. and could have been where i got the svt idea. i ended up doing my interior same pieces you painted, but with a dark grey metallic. kinda stock, but still flashy.

awsome car man.

Thanks, heres some past pics.

Heres the car in MM&FF with the SVT treatment and carbon fiber, no paint yet. (http://www.lincolnmotorsport.com/press/mmnff1/)

Will LMS offer that stick-on trunk latch cover with the cobar-star emblem instead of just the star?
Same question applies to the wheel centers, will you offer those printed with the cobra-star.

Or, in the different colors, as you mentioned in a different thread?

Yes, yes nd yes.

the black emblems look very nice.

Yes, yes nd yes.

Will they be available soon?

lets not forget people,

SVT does not = Cobra.

it is the Special Vehicle Team,

and we all have special vehicles in our marks.

Will they be available soon?

I'll have a test version in the smaller size hopefully over this weekend.

There was never an SVT Mark VIII, and thusly, I think it's retarded to put the emblem on. How is that any different than putting a GT-R emblem on a car that never had a GT-R model?

yep

Would it be retarded to put subtle skyline badges on a Infinit G35?

And is it retarded to put any badge on a car, other than stock, that denotes the engine size, displacement, or performance enhancements, such as a 281 badge on the Mark?

And is it retarded to buy a Pontiac Lemans and restore it to look like a GTO clone?

Think if a del sol had a type-r motor in it. And somebody put a type-r emblem on the car. From my rather little knowledge of imports im pretty sure they didnt make a type-r del sol.

but they did make a type r civic that was not sold in the US.

but they did make a type r civic that was not sold in the US.
I dont care:)

How many cobras have you seen with lincoln badges on them?

Yes.

And is it retarded to put any badge on a car, other than stock, that denotes the engine size, displacement, or performance enhancements, such as a 281 badge on the Mark?

An SVT badge does not denote engine size, displacement (which is the same thing incidentally), or performance enhancements. Plus, why would anyone want to advertise that they only had 4.6 liters?

In short. Yes, it is retarded.

And is it retarded to buy a Pontiac Lemans and restore it to look like a GTO clone?

Apples to hand grenades. Not even a close analogy. You could restore a Lemans and make it look pretty much identical to a goat. No amount of modification or restoration will create an SVT Mark VIII, since it never existed.

Would you make fun of a ricer who put a Type-R emblem on his accord?

Here's the red reflective treatment from Geno at LMS.....

NICE!!! :cool:

Yes.
Why would it be "retarded" to denote a G35 with a skyline refrence?



Plus, why would anyone want to advertise that they only had 4.6 liters?
Why wouldn't you?

Would you make fun of a ricer who put a Type-R emblem on his accord?
4 cylinder or 6 cylinder.
2 door or four.

Why would it be "retarded" to denote a G35 with a skyline refrence?

Because a G35 is not a Skyline, it's a G35. Besides, your analogy is incorrect anyway. Even if those two cars are amazingly similar, there is no SVT vehicle that is similar to a Mark VIII.

Why wouldn't you?

Who cares if you have 281 cubic inches? That's you and the other 3254068406784605 Ford cars and trucks on the road.


4 cylinder or 6 cylinder. 2 door or four.

Any of those.

Paul.

i have an idea. since this will prolly just continue in a big arguement... lets just drop it. im sorry i made anyone cry by posting a pic of ---my--- trunk lock cover off of ---my--- car. who cares about 3 lil letters on the back of my car. i am just taking credit for my engine being used before the svt cobra had it. so, if ya dont like it then whats the big deal. y are u wasting your time bitchin about it over the internet? just dont do it. dont pay attention, go help somone who has technical issues, instead of complaining about 3 lil letters on a car that isnt yours.

I usually don't chime in on this crap. But, Let people do what ever they wont to their cars Just because you don't like it doesn't mean that you are correct or incorrect. Let people be people. Let it go and if you can't, then grow up. Sorry this thread just got under my skin. Some might say, changing the color of the emblem from red to another color is not stock. That would be a fair argument, it's not stock. It doesn't mean we have to follow those rules, does it? NO. Let people be themselves. I think a part of maturity is every time someone does something you don't like. Try keeping the mouth shut. There have been many times I think something looks like CRAP. I don't feel I have to post it. It's just MY opinion. Thank GOD for diversity, otherwise this would be one boring life.

Yep Yep. Sometimes its fun to see everyones opinions, other times its not. In the long run everyone has different taste.

How many cobras have you seen with lincoln badges on them?

The Cobra doesnt share the Lincoln characteristics like a Lincoln shares the Cobra's. We had the engine first.

The Mark is a 2 door luxury muscle car plain and simple. I don't care who thinks what is retarded. I made a car that Ford SHOULD have made imho.

I modified it to out perform with Cobra's of it's era and look just as aggressive and clean, rear wing, tasteful wood grain delete via carbon fiber, 17x9 Cobra R wheels, lowered stance and YES SVT emblems even on the trunk lid.

anyone who decided to throw their negative worthless, 2 cents in. thats not just for this thread either. you ppl need to stop raggin on OTHER ppls opinions.

How many cobras have you seen with lincoln badges on them?


look,whether you agree with the svt badge or not,nobody is talking about "COBRA" badges,these are "SVT" badges

SVT can be a damn ford focus,a lightning pickup,possible someday it will mean a ford fusion.

SVT is a performance division of Ford,
not one car (cobra)

I persoanlly have no problem seeing SVt on a mark viii.

is it retared to put a different size wheel(17",18" etc) on a car that only came with 16"

no! its not,

and neither is a small Ford performance badge either.

whether you like it or not,its not wrong.
in your world it seems any form of "customization" is wrong,since an SVT badge is just that.

Thank you captain obvious! We know what god damn svt means. We know that its not specific to the mustang. EZZZZ VEEE TEEE

You know what! I really dont care if you put svt badges on your car because you most likely live 200 miles or more away from me. And its very likely that I will not see your car in person ever. You know, whatever you want to do man. If you wanna go ahead and put a cobra R wing on your car.. or better yet... one uh them eezzz vveee teee wings.

qoute<<How many cobras have you seen with lincoln badges on them?>>

you people get out of hand as soon as someone's opinion varies from your own.

then refer to comments like "thank you captain obvious" when you need a defense .


anyway to each his own,i have had my fun with this thread.

you know, WTF????? customizing your car is a matter of personal preferance... I don't give a sh!t what ANYONE but me thinks about my cars, I have Cobra R wheels on my Mark, does this mean that somehow I think that it's a Cobra R??? I put them on there because they look BAAAAAAD ASS. If you like what you did to your car to make it YOUR car that's all that matters. stop with the hatin' jealous ass remarks already. :mad:

I dont know if you noticed. But cobras have ezz vee tee badges on them...:)

i only posted it because in another thread, he posted it about somone else.

likw the hotlink below it.

Im not arguing.... im simply stating my opinion.

I seen a F-150 with Caddillac badges and a Caddillac decal in the rear window, with chrome grill 24's, I wanted to beat this person senseless. Then If thats not bad enough I see a F-150 with a Mercedes emblem wired on right over the FORD blue oval in the grill you can still see it too. So theres alot worse things then puting SVT on a sport luxury equiped with a cobra before it was ever seen in a mustang. Atleast its a emblem from the same manufacturer come on Mercedes emblem on a F-150 what the hell.

It's just a single one that my friend had made. No one is going to try to sell this item as everyone knows that it is Geno's design. However what was one to do without one availible from LMS? Now that they have one we won't have to make our own! How much will they cost? Cheesy? Well I don't know about that? It might not look as good as the one you will have but I think it still looks pretty good for like $8. We all Like your cobrastar design! OH wait! It's not a cobra so does it belong on there? LOL.

How did he make it? The one on my project car is gone. I'm looking to make one that's all black and debadged, no logo.

evilally is back in da house!!!:cool: :cool:

Correct- thanks :gr_devil:

We are making OFFICIAL LMS versions right now.

That is our copyrighted company logo and cannot be reproduced for sale period!

I said earlier in this thread we will have a test version made this weekend and will be ready ship next week in CHROME and it will not look cheesy like the one pictured, that one doesn't even have the star seperated from the Cobra, it's all just run together and looks cheap.
Geno, I thought that was your test version. I wasn't trying to promote an impostor by any means. I just bought a new lock from the auction site about 6 months ago. But, when I have yours in hand, that will be the one on my Lincoln.

I think it's hilarious...

Anyone who thinks using this picture is funny to support there juvenile arguments about badging are nothing but immature little dicks! Do WTF you want with your cars, but don't use someone else's misfortune to help promote your miserable existence.

So, Let me get this right. The picture of the handicap guy running, was originally posted by MarkVIII93. I get it. :slam

ok,its in bad taste,so can someone make up that same slogan and put it on a picture of george dubbya bush?

then we would not be making fun of someone elses misfortune,but instead making fun of the United states misfortune.

a truer retard there has never been.

Down with dubbya Bush.

I was not the original poster of this picture. Lets get that straight! I have had the good fortune of being around handicapped kids. I can tell you, they exhibit more class and character than any of you on this board that like to refer to someone as a "retard" or being "retarded". I can only attribute your ignorance to a lack of proper upbringing by your parents, as well as, a lack of respect for others.

no one accused you of posting it,

i was making the statement that i agree that picture is in poor taste.

i never call anyone a retard...except F$%k face bush.

as far as my ignorance..deal with it.these are only words and life is to short for me to care what you think,and it too short for you to care what i say.

no harm no foul.

Geno, will they be available with a factory Red and Silver? I have the Bright Toreador Red and it matches perfectly. Just wondering.

Look, I am not going to treat anyone who is "speacial" any different than someone "normal" who's to say what's normal or speacial? everyone should be treated the same. people make fun of other people all the time. why should hadicapped people be the exception?? If you treat them different than normal people then your the one that is retarded.

Any color you want. We have reflective red that would look slammin on that paint code!!

Cool! Done Deal...

My 2cents. If the picture is offensive stop posting it. Remember way back when this thread was about an innovative guy who was looking for a little input about a trunk emblem? Dude your idea rocks!! I did it myself today and am pleased with the results. I will still buy the LMS version as soon as it is available.

I can't find anything to which I can attribute your serious lack of humor. Not everything has to be 100% politically correct all the damn time.

LMAO!

That picture is older than the internet. Jesus.

People today are too goddamn sensitive. Do you really think the people who post that have some baseless disdain for handicapped people? That, in real life, they would handicapped/disabled people with disrespect?

Wow.

Paul.

that really does look good.

I totally agree, that looks slick.

And if someone asks what kinda Lincoln is that, you can honestly say a "HOT ROD Lincoln"

No lack of humor here. In fact, I find a lot of humorous posts on this board, especially yours!

That, in real life, they would handicapped/disabled people with disrespect?

Wow.

Paul.


Not sure what that means? No, I'm not trying to be too sensitive. I guess if you think it's O.K. to use it because it's older than the internent, then feel free to do so. I don't see the justification. I started reading this thread so I could redo my trunk emblems. Instead of getting ideas about how to do it, the thread goes from trying to help people and present ideas to posts from people on here that want to slam someone else's idea and resort to name calling. I wasn't trying to offend anyone. Yea, my words were probably harsh, all I was trying to say, the picture is in poor taste and you can support your arguments without being distasteful.

Jim

I missed a word. I was trying to say "That, in rea life, they would treat handicapped/disabled people with disrespect."

This thread sucks a lefty

This thread sucks a lefty

Not totally, Geno said he's have the new Cobra-star trunk covers ready to show in a week.

ok but theres already one for that

Geno, Are the Lincoln motorsports trunk lock covers ready yet? any pics yet?

Here's the red reflective treatment from Geno at LMS.....

DAMN Dan I didnt even notice this when you posted it. Looks freakin' awesome. I wish you could get a shot at night to show the amazing reflective qualities of it.

I hope the official LMS one isn't really expensive...

Not at all, same price actually the SAME (http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=25204) as our regular star style version. Just the reflective versions are $5.00 more.
