Grille Emblem Opinions

[J5hort]

Hi All,
Finally getting around to replacing grille on my 95 Sport. Decided to try some emblems different than stock and need some opinions and any other ideas. Grill has been painted with initial base coat of stock Cardinal Red and emblems hve been 3D printed and sealed/primed. Was thinking of keeping a Red/Black theme for this truckand am also interested in some black headlight buckets. Send along any pics of Ex's with this type of scheme.

So here are the current three I am thinking of and am loloking for feedback and ideas.

^ Look nice but probably illegal to have front white lit emblem.

I too, can only see 1st pic. It doesn't look bad but can barely even tell it's a Ford emblem, with black text on black background, maybe make text red OR background red, or just wait and then decide.

Ill take a look at the missing image issue.
Emblem has not been painted yet. I can go any color. Was thinking of painting gloss black then fill Ford scipt with Cardinal Red body color.

I like that. I can probably add LEDs and diffuser material to get it illuminated. It is a 3D print file and can be manipulated any way it wants to be.

Let's see your brand?

Idea: use what you have in the picture, but change lettering and oval to Ford Blue. Then clear coat the entire emblem.

I would be concerned that the lighting is a violation, and a reason to Be stopped any time.

Looks good.

I like that first emblem, I prefer subtle, very subtle.

I removed the emblem from the hatch of mine, plan to smooth it over. I have lower emblems with the Mercury and Mountaineer in them, OEM
indented and same color.

I might like a back lighted(slightly back lighted) front emblem, that one above is too bright for my taste. I like changes, but changes that are not likely to be obvious or easy to spot.

I've seen Mercedes with lit up stock emblem on grille here in picky California (well picky vehicle laws....lawlessness on real issues is okay here )

As if Benz's badge didn't already announce itself clearly enough, now it can light up.
