Got the big G on the front of the FBF, got the peace symbol target on the front of the Merc and got a factory fitted emblems on top of the gaurds and bonnet on the XY. F O R D on the front of the F truck...If they were fitted when the car was built ..all good.

Fit them later and it's like..............sox in your jox

I think hood ornaments are okay for upper spec models (Fairmont, Fairlane, LTD), but on base models it doesn't look good, out of place.
