Check out this baby!  Just got it a few minutes ago.  Couldn't wait to SHO it off.  I got it from the guy that did my wheel hubs and it is perfect!
 
Thanks!  That is actually a domed gel type.  It's deep (3D) and looks like a real emblem.  I measured to leave the chrome ring around it.  It tappers down around the edge to meet the ring.  I am sure it will last for years and years.
 
Yeah, like Mike said, it looks perfect...took me a minute before realizing that it originally was the Ford logo in the steering wheel, not SHO...sharp!
 
Hold everything! I just discovered that in bright light, there is a blue ring visible around the outside of the chrome ring.  I am going to talk to my guy.  I'll see if he can make the emblem to totally fill, edge to edge, the indentation and put a ring around the emblem.  I think I will just do silver lettering and ring.  We'll see what he says.  I will measure and email him tonight.
 
HOly bat cakes.

I don't know who is worse -- you or bpd.

Someone call the Vinyl POLICe.
 
Just trying to iron out the kinks so if anybody in the future wants to do it they will have smooth sailing. ;D

BTW, I sure don't mind being compared to BPD.  ;D ;D

Urgent message to Lord Tubby Ton!  Stop copying all of Mike's mods.  ;D ;D ;D
 
Eh, he did the work -- works for me.

Plus, I wasn't first to put Nuburgs on; someone already beat me to it besides Mike.
 
I just gave you a thank you because I know you don't like them. :beer:

I can't wait to see this..........

BTW, waiting on an answer for the revision.
 
OK.  My guy and I are getting closer to a conclusion.  To comletely cover the deep indent so the blue vertical edge of the stock emblem does not show, the measurement is 2-5/16" X 7/8".  I want him to do them in Gloss Black with Silver SHO letters and a 1/8" Silver border.  That should do it. 

BTW,  The Gel type wheel hub covers are 2 1/2" Diameter and the the vinyl Ford oval overlays are 6-3/8" X 2-1/2"  My guy will have all these measurements if you want to order any/all.  I should have pics of the Ovals Saturday night if I can get back to town and the PO on time and pics of the steering wheel next week some time when they come in.

BTW- All these measurements are off my 2012.  10's and 11's should be the same.  Double check!
