V8 owners, remove the film on plastic engine cover?

[MagneticMan]

the 5.0 badge has a plastic protective film over it, thinking it was meant to be removed? Should I? Not that it matters all that much.

Edges are starting to get curly.

Yeah, my edges started to get curly as well so i just ripped it off. Do it.

I bought mine used and this was still on there. It lasted until the first time I opened the hood.

Remove it. That adds about 10 extra horsepower.

Your tuner must not be very good. 20rwhp or bust

[Dragster]

Do it for the weight savings.;)

I removed the whole engine cover.

I was going to do this as well. Any problems so far? Would water be able to touch anything?

 

[ARS1]

I removed mine the day I got it.

It probably fit so well when new, that the dealer prep missed it.

You'll see on craigslist in about 20 years:

"NOS 2015 Ford Mustang 5.0 Emblem Plastic - $40"

Don't forget, making all the lighting in your car yellow adds at least another 5-10hp
