Small Ford emblems for mud flaps

[FloridaPhil]

Hey all,

Going to install some aftermarket mud flaps (that look remarkably like OEM) and I thought a nice addition would be the Ford emblems on each. I've spent many hours trying to find emblems in the 4-6" wide range as the workable (relatively flat) area is max 8". So the standard 9" emblems will not work. I'd appreciate any help on this 'quest'. lol

btw, my recently purchased truck is a '24 XLT supercrew, 3.5L V6 EcoBoost, in the Antimatter Blue. Friggin love this truck! Traded in my '13 XLT supercrew for it as I tend to keep my trucks for a bit

I have the gatorbacks but opted for just the plain Jane. I do see a lot of folks running these with the Ford or F150 emblem.

Just googled 5” ford emblem and a BUNCH popped up.

Google is your friend

The problem is that most of them might say 5" (or 6) but they point to 9" emblems. Been down that rabbit hole

However, when I just searched specifically for Bronco emblems, they are all in the 5-6" range so WooHoo! Thanks for the nudge which put on the right path Greg

Even found some blacked out versions...

btw, Google is decidedly not our friend anymore! LOL

I just looked at these. $1,015.00 CAD?!?

I would call around. I paid around $500 back in 2021 at Action Trucks for front and back flaps.

That’s only $20 US ???

I found some 5" Bronco ovals in blacked out American flag design. They will fit perfectly on the mud flaps I have.

I appreciate your help Chris

I got them off eBay. These are exactly the same:

I will
Waiting on the emblems (Saturday) so I can install them on the bench instead oF trying to line them up with the mud flaps installed! lol

I got busy doing other stuff and finally got them installed with the emblems.

I finally made time to get the emblems on and the flaps installed. They look a LOT better than plain! Here's some pics:

I ended up making a template out of blue tape and sticking it to some light plastic (for re-usability. Worked great! Because the emblems were flat and the flaps had a bit of curve, I had to clamp them in place. Because the 3M tape (I added some) didn't really hold well on the curve, I used E6000 glue and clamped them for a day each. They are not coming off LOL

btw, I am also pleased with the fit. I did have issues with the clips they had. I had to spread the 'wings' a bit and they were stupid tight. Also, I re-used the stock hardware up front as the supplied would not work. No big deal.
Lastly, I ended using some nuts and bolts for the brace bar on the back flaps as the large clip nuts would not go on.
Very happy
