Thunderbird "V8" emblems on the way. :)

[Ghaleon64]

I figured in true Ford fashion I would go ahead and get a couple 03 Thunderbird V8 emblems to put on the fenders. I always liked that look and since Lincoln was trying to mimic a European design with the LS I figured it would look very Audi or Maserati-like to have the V8 emblem on the fender. I did that with the Mark VIII I had and it looked pretty sweet. Just had to share.

How about the early Ford V-8 emblems with the V and the 8 interposed ?

Actually pektel, those are the ones I had on my Mark VIII! Looked damn fantastic too!

These are the ones I bought:

I thought it would be nice since the Tbird shared the same platform as the LS so why not share the same emblems? Plus I really like the V8 emblems on Audi fenders and thought this would look pretty slick.

I would get some. But v6 wouldn't look right

Lol noo plus the added weight might hurt the performance

Alrighty, a few pics for you alls. I think they turned out quite well. They really add to the, "Lincoln was trying to compete with European sedans" vibe with them being more towards the top of the fender instead of down by the strip.

Shoulda put them lower IMO, but they are a nice addition..

 

[FASTLLS]

Agreed.. they look good but just too high for me

 

[ATrom]

Rollin I like what you got there.. After seeing that, I might have to find somebody to do some air brushing for me.

Placement reminds me of the V8 on the the Colorado's.

 

[Ghaleon64]

Well like I said, i was trying to mimic the European inspired stylings of the LS with other European V8's like the Audi S5. I like the look of the higher emblems.

I like that on your car. I don't think the pinstriping would look good on my color.
