I'm liking my shaved rear end.  I still might put the SHO on it. One of those Billet Badges like Beck has might look good where the SHO used to be too.

I took a few more pictures with different options. My Phone / photobucket upload screwed up. Let me update the original post...

I wanted to badge the car witht he 3.5L Twin Turbo so people dont think the "ecoboost" is just some economy car, but I just don't think they look right. Honestly I like the clean look  of just cutting the ecoboost off from uynder the SHO emblem and leave the Taurus alone. I like a stock appearance with subtle changes that just improve on a stock appearance.

The Ecoboost badge on the SHO has to be one of the all time worse performance badges. I prefer to debadge everything if at all possible to have true sleeper car status, although I do like the SHO marked side faux vents, which I thought I would hate.

Billet Badges to the rescue!!! Stealth EB badges for everyone!
Now a body color badge (white) with black lettering could work.

Now that sounds promising.

I wish there were the fake side fender vents that said "Twin Turbo" instead of SHO.

then I'd only run the SHO on the trunk lid less the Ecoboost part.

It IS kinda hard to get the ECOBOOST badge placed somewhere, isn't it?  I have seen some folks putting it on the passenger side of the dash or the center console.

shodded- that's where i got mine when i moved the small SHO letters over to the console. & 68, i'm getting some metal letters from the place beck got them that just say SHO , just like his, mine's a '10 so am getting rid of all taurus mention with fender SHO's & on trunk lid moving the letters SHO to trunk left side & here's where a lot of guys will throw up. saw some car think it was an audi, or might have been the XTS has the letters TT on it, standing for twin turbo, so am going to try that. as i mentioned in a post some guys are debagers & some guys can't get enough & obviously i fall into that class. now to figure out what to do with 3 SHO/Ecoboost emblems, that still will be in in the mix. They may just be on something that i sit in my trunk when i go to shows.

Maybe you could turn the emblems into 3D pieces for your displays, instead of being on-vehicle?  Regardless, will be looking for pics of what you decide to go with!

Has any got an idea on how to remove or address the ford emblem on the trunk. I want the entire trunk to have no emblems on it. I plan to only keep the sho emblems on the side fenders on the car

If you don't have a back-up camera it is all 3M double-sided tape.  If you have a camera the emblem is integral with the rest of the housing
