ornament mounting bracket

[matt1517]

I give up. I don't know where to find the mounting bracket for the front pony ornament. Its a 95. I've looked everywhere anyone got a suggestion? The only thing I can think of is going to a junk yard.

That pony emblem is part of the bracket itself.You are talking about the part with the 2 security torx screws ?

I had to replace mine years ago.You buy the bracket,your buying the entire emblem.

Ford dealer has it.Or get it from a junkyard.

Yeah the one with the torx screws. American Muscle has this

It makes me mad I have to replace it. Someone let something hit it and now the pony is slanted down. At the same time someone backed into the car and made a good size dent. and ran off.

Flaming Pony.Seen that one.There's also one that lights up.Don't remember where I seen it.Do a search if your interested.

And that guys bracket probably is new.If you noticed it said "custom airbrushed"....aka painted.

Sorry about the emblem.Too many morons out there who could care less what they run into (soccer moms ).Mine was allready broke when I got the car 8 years ago.Go figure...

JY will probably give it to you for 5 bucks.

also the dent i have is like 14 or so inches, any suggestions on getting it out. I figure if i use a suction cup its pull it out but at the same time it will bend the metal creating a crack. Much like a coke can when u squeeze it then try and pop it out, the sides crack.

There is some sort of tool at oriellys that has a pin in the middle and to braces on either side, the pin in the middle has a flat bottom which u place in the middle of the dent, next u apply glue to it and set it in the brace and screw it out. I dont know if its worth it.

Not real sure about the dent removal tool you mentioned.As for the dent,it can be popped back out without notice..only if the dent doesn't have a crease in it.If there is a crease,then you'll still have a leftover "small" dent after popping the big one out.No,it wont crack.But by the sounds of it,you may have to work it out slowly.

I'm not too experienced in pulling out dents.

 

[matt1517]

Yeah its creased. Its on the drivers side. I want to get it fixed but I don't know where to take it to where they wont charge massive amounts. I know Macco can do it but of all the horror stories i've heard from them I don't know.
