They come from China, though, so expect a few weeks wait to go through customs.

Yeah, I saw that. If I order them, and I probably will, I sure hope the pictures don't make them look better than they are. That will disappoint me. Found ones with gold trim, too, but uh.... no :lol:

:lol:

Yeah, I know when I was parked next to a Chevrolet Impala, I realized how bare mine are too, and then thought the Impala logo would fit well on the C Pillar

I think my next new car though will be a General Motors. I love that OnStar.... Started my grandfather's Impala 20+ miles away for him, because I was talking on the phone with him, and he said he was going to goto the store, and I said, "Lemme warm your car up for you"

He was ecstatic about it. That and I really do like the automatic crash response, and the Onboard diagnostics. And it's not that expensive for what you get out of it. And looking under the hood of the 2012 Impala, it looks very DIY Friendly.

Yes, I must agree. OnStar is a very excellent service. I believe my next car will be a GM as well. You see, I am still planning on that Z34 wagon project

Hey, for you OnStar people, you can now buy it for any car, it doesnt have to be a GM. Same as factory installed, you pay your subscription and away you go. I think its around $200 / $300 installed.

But... No iPhone control to remotely unlock/lock car, Remote start/kill, or sound horn/lights. Nor does it tell you tire pressure for each tire, or oil life, fuel economy, or remaining fuel.

I really love being able to pull up the car on my iPhone, see that the tires are low, and then I can go fill them accordingly.

(Also, doesn't have built in Autodim!)

Whoa!

Those look nice! I would love a set on my car!

And at least they ain't $200. I wouldn't spend that much on an emblem anyway.
Especially since I'm the kinda guy who goes around a parking-lot with a flathead screwdriver. Posted Image

They do look nice, and a nice price, too. But as I continued browsing I found the exact same thing but with Audi, or VW, or BMW, ect ect. Same crest/shield design but a different logo. Which leads me to believe that it isn't licensed by Ford, and therefore I don't want it on my car. I will have to keep looking. Maybe I will get the 'Executive Series' emblems from a Lincoln and put 'em on :lol:

:lol:

It would be, considering I am still planning a final gen Conti interior swap.

Nah. I am considering a full two-tone deal. That Cinnamon metallic, with black or black cherry from the hood (inside where the striped are now) over the roof and then over the decklid. But this is all in my headright now, tho. :lol:
