I ordered myself a set of 5.0 badges to put back on my car since I bought my car without them on it. I am just wanting to know the proper measurements or whatever so I can get them in the correct location on the fender. Thanks.

Do you honestly like the 5.0 badges??? Leave them off or go with something else. Just me though.....


i think maybe he does...like most of us. Unless your not running a 5.0 anymore.

There are not many more badges that look good right there.



mine are in the wrong spot so i cant help ya much

maybe like 3 7/8" or 4" from fender opening, 2 3/8" from the door gap, and up from the belt moulding like 3/4"

mine are the mentioned above, but about 1 3/4" from the moulding....too high, but i didnt do it lol.


i'd go with the 2 3/8" from the door and eyeball the height with the pics

I love the 5.0 badges. They are THE symbol of the 5.0 Mustang.

The reason I want measurements is because I've seen people place 5.0 badges in the wrong spot and it looks horrible.

Thanks for the replies guys. :nice:
 
good thing this topic came up because i was going to post the same exact thing because i just got my mustang a couple of months ago and it had minor body damage so i redid the whole body and wasnt sure exactly where they went, and it is so true that if they are a little of it looks so bad.
 
Well since I have a slight case of obsessive compulsive disorder when it comes to my car, I just didn't think the two emblems looked like they were in the same locations, even though I used the same measurements. Sure enough, on the passenger side, the emblem is probably 1/8" lower than the one on the drivers side. I wonder if I can peel the drivers side back off (without taking off some paint) and reapply it using some adhesive. :shrug:
