Anyone know where to get new old stock 2000 XLT emblems, or a very good reproduction? I like the factory emblems but the red XLT on mine is now almost white.

Here's what I'm looking for

 

your local dealer should be ale to get them for you still.

 

also gonna save these guys some time, cause they will attack you..... USE GOOGLE...haha

 

Stealership or LMC truck

 

The one's on my 97 are a faded white, and almost to the point to where the XLT is fading away. My question is, did my truck come from factory with the red lettering with white outline like the ones pictured above, or were they completely white?

 

They were all red I'm pretty sure

 

Ok thanks.

 

But whilst we're improving looks, there's always the 09+ badges to upgrade to. A little more pricey, but the clean lines of them look great on our trucks, one of my favorite mods.

 

How much do those emblems run at? And how hard is it to put them on replacing all 3?

 

I just did the two fender emblems for now, they were $80 and took about 30min apiece to swap. You just run a line of tape across the top to keep the new ones level, use a blow dryer to loosen the adhesive, run some fishing line behind to pop them off, then get all the old adhesive off either using the heat gun and your finger nail, or a 3M eraser wheel on a drill. Then you'll cut the tabs off the new emblems and peel the adhesive off, make sure they cover the holes and are level with the tape and stick them down.

Same process goes for factory style emblems, you just won't cut the tabs off, that will align them perfectly, and the tape really won't be required.
