Okay, most of you know I'm going to be using an Edge grille shell with my new front end....

My dilemma was the Ford Emblem though.....most Saleens don't have the blue ovals on the front....the problem was that I wanted to use the honeycomb grill, so a simple speed grille wouldn't have fit....

So, what to do? Make your own emblem, of course!

Finished product......





Opinions?

 

Looks GREAT!!

really nice!!

MazdaSpeed vs. Saleen heh heh

 

looks real good man.

 

very nice! youre doing the entire front end conversion to 01-03? its going to look so good.

 

looks really nice man.

 

That looks awesome, looks like it came from the factory like that.

 

very very nice john

 

Looks damn good John.

 

phat up..looks awsome...

now u gotta throw the Saleen engine in the ranger right??

 

You'll see......



Thanks everyone.....

THANK YOU....

And THAT is my goal with the entire truck....

 

You hit 'em high, I'll hit 'em low.....

 

so is there any time frame for gettin the front end complete?? i wanna see the end results!

 

That's badass! How did you do it?

 

Looks good john...

 

I lack a single adjustment screw.....it's on order from Ford as we speak.....

I've been super busy at work, like, since May......

I don't have the newer bumper yet, because I've been looking at the STX valence....Problem is it's $700...oh, and my hood needs paint.

So basically the only thing "changing" is the grille and lights....FOR NOW, anyways.

I just hate having the whole "under construction" look.....hence the hesitation. I'm an all at once kind of guy when it comes to modding.....

Weeeeeellllllll......I have friends in the design department at Nissan.....we kept it on the D.L., so to speak. I brought the emblem in, they made a template.....we adjusted....bla bla bla...

End result is what you see!! We went through a few, getting it "just right"....

 

sounds good to me man


i think i saw a how to or directions to making emblems like that...either on gen edge or here....i cant remember...if i had some emblems like that i'd make custom ones....

 

Looks kick *** John! Now get the whipple in!

 

Sweet......that looks pretty badass!

 

dammnnn, looks good

 

actually last ive heard from John, hes going with a supercharged 5.0


5.0 to start and then supercharged later

 

Looks great John, can't wait to see what's to come.

 

That is sweet!! I would like to do the front end of an 01-03 on my 00'. Cant be but so hard...huh?

 

The truck is coming along nicely man!

you would need the core support, headlights, corner lights, grill shell and grill and maybe a hood if ya wanted that too! Some of the headlight wiring is a bit different (there are two blinker bulbs per side on a 98-00 and one on a 01+) I thnk thats pretty much it though... oh and headlight retainer clips (two per side)

 

Kick *** man!
