Taillight Emblem Removal ? January 03, 2010, 02:25:46 AM Has anyone ever tried to remove the bird emblems from '87-'88 taillights ? I would really like to give it a shot, but I don't want to wreck a good set of taillights. Quote Selected

Whoever was in charge of Thunderbird emblems in the Fox years went a little overboard. Meanwhile, in the Mustang department, you couldn't find a horse emblem anywhere. I guess I will just get out the satin black paintbrush and try to make them a little less noticeable. Quote Selected
