I know most probably are not into debadging but I like a cleaner look, even on the GT500. Well not that I am surprised but the side Cobras are pinned like the rest of the S550 cars. So no debadging for me. Attached is the picture of the Cobras for confirmation. I am still curious if the front grill has an embossed section behind the emblem or if it can be removed.

Front grille is embossed. Rebadging still leaves a black cobra shape. You’d need an aftermarket grille.

Just leave it stock. It looks great!
If you want to mod, get wheels or power adders.
That’s my opinion.

You're nuts...why devalue an expensive car like that if you were to do it? :headbang:

The good news is there will be a ton of v6, eb's & GT's. Running around with Cobra badges now.:like:

I just ordered a set to install after the front fenders have the paint protection film applied. I love the emblems and I would not want to take them off, but that's just me.

Removing the 5.0 emblems from a GT is one thing, they're everywhere, and IMO adds a stealthy image to the car while also cleaning up the profile appearance. Removing the Cobra emblems from a legitimate Shelby is another story, even accounting for all the fake add-on emblems stuck to non-shelbys you don't see that many on the road, and they just plain look cool

A debased 500 would look awesome.

I have no issues with anyone doing that. It would look clean and high tech.

but the car with badges looks that way as well.
I’m not a fan of the grille and trunk lid badges on this car. The 350 badges were perfect.

they should have had it without the molded shape.
But you know there will be aftermarket parts.

Meh. I'm all about sleepers.

Unfortunately, Ford sees fit to perforate the fenders on everything but the most base cars. Tsk, tsk.

I'd pay 5K for an option to have no badges on the car period. looks like hell, especially the front one.
Since it isnt an option, at least have to black out the front, minimum.
