Looks like they dropped the BIN price to 5500. If things are true and the car is solid it is a good deal. Hard to say without proper documentation.Last edited by 87gtVIC; 02-07-2021, 07:11 AM.~David~

NOS NEW GOLD OEM 88-91 Crown Victoria Trunk Lock Swing Bezel Ornament Emblem
What is the reasoning behind the gold ones? I see some of the c pillar (LTD CROWN VICTORIA) emblems in gold as well. Special edition or something?

That was a trendy thing in the late 80-90s. The Dealers took the "stock" looking emblems and replaced them with the "Gold package" for about $350. Basically an aftermarket company re dipped the emblems with a gold tone look. Because this item IS the Ford emblem it needed to be made by Ford in the Gold fashion. High profit dealer installed option. Trend faded away after people were not impressed with gold tone anymore.

Really nice mudflaps

and
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Gro...8AAOSwOKpgIeWF
These just fit so damn well and match the cladding on the boxy mers and vics. I have a set on my car since 2010 and just LOVE them. Been looking for more for the past few years and just now they are popping up on ebay from time to time.
I have hoarded enough spares that I can now share new links to these.~David~

They are really nice. I picked them up locally at an r&s strauss when they were still around back in 08 or 09. Have always been searching for a spare set or three and now all of a sudden they are coming out of the woodworks.
They nice black rubber and the stainless are just so fitting.~David~

I dont believe those are HPP wheels. They look quite different from the HPPs I have. I just believe it is an uncommon set of wheels.~David~
