Grill logo took a hit

The Ford emblem on my grill took a rock and has a bunch of moisture in it now. Looks BAD... Anybody know if the logo can be replaced by itself?

I suppose I need to by some V10 badges. Is the dealer the only pplace to get this kind of stuff?

Musta been a big damn rock.. The Emblems are filled with Poxy.. You can actually heat it up, rip the poxy out, clean it.. Then paint it whatever color you want, fill it back up with poxy and bam.. New oval

Did it on my F150, made it White instead of blue.. Just use Chapstick over the lettering to keep the paint from sticking to it.

It works Whenever I get time, I'm going to pull mine and do the same.. It's a simple process, most don't realize it..

1. Heat up the Poxy on the emblem then scrape it out.. Most of the blue will come with it..

2. Clean it up real good...

3. Apply chapstick to the Ford Lettering and any part you dont want painted..

4. Using spray paint (duH), choose your color for the backdrop

5. Let paint dry then apply 1hr Poxy to fill emblem up.



Bam, done.. You just saved yourself $50 bux for a Ford Emblem


If anyone pays $60-70 for that Black Ford/Chrome Ford emblems some dude is selling online.. Your crazy, pay me $40 and I'll do it myself lol..

Don't know your mileage, but I would at least check with the dealer regarding warranty replacement. They don't need to know about any rock, just show them the moisture.
