But as if I would sell the EL
 : I saw Danny's thread in the Fiesta section (Check it out BTW, awesome work!), he for the people that dont know, owns a red Fiesta, which now sports a funky red Ford badge. So I pinched his idea, and contact, and put my own twist on it. Originaly I was just going to have a Heritege Green badge made up, nice and simple; but then I got a better idea. As I am attempting to bling the Ghia up a bit, I thought chrome would be the go! I wanted it to match the BF bonnet badge. To say I am happy with the results is a huuge understatement. Big thanks to Damian, from Grafico (username=grafico). Certain top notch stuff, and I will look forward to the next idea we nutted out! :Up_to_som Hope others think it looks good to, only downside so far is that it get dirty easyily, and its been crappy weather so I haven't been able to clean my car :(

I believe FPV wanted to use Ford badges with a different colored background (similar to Bentley with their red badge/black badge scenario) to the normal Ford blue, but H.O. knocked it on the head. I think it would have been quite cool.

Wan't there also another way where the backing of the FORD badge was scrubbed down to the blue paint level. You could then paint the backing any colour you wanted which made the whole badge look factory. The Ford logo still stayed silver because it was raised further.
Any one else heard about this method.........or better still done it ????
