So I debadged my Focus and I picked up a KILLER hood ornament. Let me know what you think. I know its dirty but I am just about to give her a bath.

Is that a broken headlight due to impact or is it just an odd angle shot?

All that was left of my bird is basically what you see in the picture. I pulled it out and there was no body or head. Just the feet and the tail. Nothing behind the grill or in the rad. She splatted into nothingness. :blink:

Sorry Kev, didn't realize you had a weak stomach. I will put a "NSFHardk0re" warning on the next one. Hopefully there isn't a next time, but you never know. LOL

I suggest using the wifes hair drier on the higest setting. Warm them up for 3 to 5 minutes. Run the dental floss under the badge. If all the foam tape/glue doesn't come off don't worry you can peel it off with your fingers. Then I used some Turtle Wax Bug and Tar Remover and cleaned up the area.

I am sure that yours will come off easier than mine did seeing that you have a new car and my badges were on for 6 years.

Let us know how you make out. I want to see some pic's. :P
