cheap looking plastic badges - replacements?
I did a search and LOVED the previous badge discussions.
Seriously though, I just got a '03 50th Anniversary and am disappointed with the badges. PLASTIC? Heck the paint is already coming off the edges.
Is there a source for billet (heck, or pot metal) crossed flag badges?
I also swear I saw one car with 50th Anniversary badges on the side. Are they authentic (no flames please)? If so I'd like to get a set of those.
Thanks

On the red anniversary edition cars they had a 50th emblem that went on the fenders.

I didn't like the plastic, but I couldn't find anything I liked available commercially, so I bought new OEM, stripped the flags out, and sent them to be chromed. I like the results.
