Like PROSTOCK did, my Dad also added a set of the '05-'07 style V10 front fender badges to his 2008 pickup. Before, you'd really have to be up close to squint to see what the truck has under the hood. What Ford should do(in my opinion....not that it counts,but...) is use the 5.4L vents, which are void of any engine designation, and bring back the V10 front fender badges to their rightful place!

I wonder how it would look directly under the big F250 badge? I know we are used to seeing it up front but it may not look bad below the vent. Anyone good at photo shop?

You mean something like this??? Na, I like them better in the front. They just need to be a little bigger!

Anybody know the factory part #s for the all-chrome versions of the '99-'04, and '05-'07 V10 emblems? I hear they are more expensive than the black&chrome ones. Thanks.

All-chrome is achieved with acetone - just wipe off the black paint.

There was a fad for a while years back on here - "acetoning badges"

Thanks, krewat, I remember people doing that with emblems. While, I didn't find Ford part#s for the all-chrome versions, I found a website, www.fordemblems.com, that sells them.
