Front emblem question..

Hey guys I just recevied my new Peterbilt emblem from ebay and love it but I noticed its bigger then the Ford emblem. I did put it up to the grill and the pins look like they will still fit perfect. My question is does anyone have a picture of the emblem on an 01 factory grill?

I love the look of the emblem but dont want it to look out of place.

It is your truck and you can put on it whatever you want.I was just asking about that because it does not fit anything on the Ford.Meaning nothing is built by Peterbuilt.
If you like it,bolt it on...no big deal...I did not mean to sway your decision,,,,Just asking.

i understand that 100% but after I bought it I thought to myself did I really need to buy that I could put that towards something better for the truck. So I wanted the seller to cancel the order but I emailed him too late he had already shipped it out. I have to run into town tomorrow so Im going to ship it back out to the seller. Ill order some International emblems a little later on but thank you again for the help, i was on the fence on this one and to hear it come from other ford owners it helped to decide that the truck doesnt need it haha

I feel bad now that I took time from the guys who looked and posted on this topic when you guys could have been looking at something better ahha

Thanks again

-AJ

They will interchange.... It is his wife's truck and she get's what she wants

Chris is not a ''pink'' lover....He has a 7.3 handshaker.

That's easy. First you join a website called FTE, then just ask how to do something to your truck and you'll get all the answers you need.

The 05 - 07 headlights fit if you trim the header panel (or change it out) and get an adapter for the headlights. http://www.dfuser.com/Install%20Guid...Conversion.pdf

You can also put the 05 grill on your truck if you trim it a little or swap front bumpers.

I can also help you with the Pink Ford emblems if you're interested.
