Thanks for the compliment Stogey- PM sent.

 

Do these attach with the soap and water method like Andrew's, which allows for perfect positioning?

 

These are different than Andrews emblems. I sent these files to Andrew back in the spring to see if his printer could work with them. Turns out they could not hold registration with the amount of detail. Long story short - these are solvent ink printed on poly, they have a heavy-duty automotive adhesive on the backs.

Here is how its done:
1 - Clean the wing - OEM emblem surface with alcohol.

2 - Remove X-Fire emblem from backing paper. Align/Center your new emblem where you want it. If applying to the stock wings, you do not have to remove the stock emblem. I recommend lining up the top edge flush with the OEM emblem, making sure the “Crossfire” lettering is straight.

3 - Place pressure in the middle of the emblem and work your way outwards in a circular motion. These emblems are pressure sensitive.

It's a little trickier but if you get the top edge on right, and the lettering straight, it drops into place, piece of cake.

 

Here's mine right now. I'm thinking of painting my wings body color and going with the Red emblem after that.

 

Thanks to H82BLB, we have an option of making our XFs a bit more different than other vehicles.
I took some shots of mine. Hope you enjoy them.

 

Man that sure looks nice with you color! Thanks for sharing your pics! Enjoy.

 

Here's my impression of these new emblems:

1. I really feel fortunate that someone decided to do this and that someone had the appropriate skills.
2. The "installation" was very quick and easy. I cleaned up the original emblems with alcohol wipes. Let them dry. Then, exactly as instructed, I placed the top of the oval into the groove of the top of the original emblem. It fit right in. I just let the rest fall right in. Finished it up with nice pressure on it. It was a no brainer. Even a caveman can do it. Yeah, seriously.
3. Personally, to nit pick a bit, the emblem didn't need to be as thick as they are.
4. Overall, I'm very satisfied with them.

Thank you.

 

Got'em yesterday and put them on today after I gave Debbie a bath. They look great!! Pics to come...

Red on Red. Nice. Works well. And hot dang, that's a nice sheen on your XF.

 

Why thank you. I did wash her up before the photos as you just cannot photograph a dirty XF.

 

Looking good itsky, Debbie's got some new jewelry! Red on red works well. Thanks for the pics!

I may be chastized for this but I don't like the long swoop with the flame. I agree with the other poster who said to tone done that part of the emblem. Stan

 

sorry Stan if you don't like them i think they look great on my red xfire

 

Its OK blackxfire, these may not for everyone, I respect that. Designing to appeal to everyone is like sitting in the middle of the road, eventually you will get run over. I see beauty where others see ugliness. That either makes me an artist, or a person of very poor taste.

 

~ big props from me - i think you did a stellar job on these!
