I bought 3 of each. Not sure how long they will stick. Hehe. They seem to adhere really well. Time will tell.
 






Where did you buy them and how much where the emblems if you don't mind
Tx
 












Yes, same place. They work great. Easy to install. Can't remember the price. It's all on the website.
 






mine looked great too, then winter hit up here, and they just fell off after looking great for 6 months :(
 






We are in the throws of winter here. When the warmer weather hits I'm going to use 3 M adhesive. It's been extremely cold here and I haven't had any problems

When you installed them do you do the following:

Wipe area squeaky clean with dishsoap/ alcohol wipes until your finger can't slide across the ford emblem.

Using a heat gun or hair dryer warm up the emblem and warm up the gel overlay. Install immediately, add a little heat to outer edges and press firmly for 1 to 2 minutes?

This is the method I used. They aren't just peel and stick.
 






So is this a decal?
It says Gel - that reminds me of the squishy stickers we used to have in school.
 






they're gel coated vinyl. it's not a squishy gel, but it's not hard plastic. they look really nice, i've got gel coated overlays on a few of my vehicles.
 






looks good, now wash that pig! LOL
 






so you dont "replace" the emblem you kind of take the top off?
 






It sticks on
 






Do you have any better pics?
