I made one for a friend a couple years ago. He had a red XR6 and wanted a red badge. Looked pretty cool though. If i knew back then my couple of hours work and $60 worth of stuff would be worth $1500 today, i would have made truck loads. :hihi:

Ive seen a few different colours done, green, yellow, orange.

I think it looks good, as blue is to much of a contrast with some colours.

Still...no one in their right mind would buy that

I actually don't mind it either. Obviously some people won't like it, but it could be cool for a particular car colour. I can't think of what right now...but im not willing to dismiss the idea completly

I think the hat is worse than the Ford Badge!

$450 for an (ugly) hat? Perhaps I'll just go to Safeway and buy a slab of Coke and get one free with it.
