Does it look better to remove the running horse emblem in the front grill?

Opinions? Kinda looks nice to me. I've seen a few cars without the emblem & am considering? + u get that big horsepower gain from more airflow cooling the engine J/K

NO.. my car had it missing as the piece is broken from a prior accident... I went and made a bracket to put a pony back in the grill...

took mine off several years ago...its not going back on. I think it cleans it up in front.

If I ever put anything there again it will be a snake (have cobra bumper) and will run a purge out its mouth and the only reason I would put a snake on front is for this effect only.

With it being empty... its like saying:

Hey, look at my radiator!

Unless you have a badazz intercooler there, I think the pony should stay.

I have new head lights I just cant install them untill i get back to the states because when they did the light converstion they drilled into the factory headlights to inseret the running light. (the running light and blinkers can't be the same bulb). so i would rather wait than ruin my new head lights.

thanks for the concern though

There's a white SN95 on the cover of the LRS/50resto catalogue that has a Ford Oval in the grill. It's looks surprisingly good and that would probably be the only thing I'd take the Pony out for, but I still wouldn't take the Pony out. Even the snakes only look good if you have a '94-'98, IMO.
