Hi all,

ive gone and mangled my rear ford badge trying to remove it,

i need a replacment one, thought it would be an easy task but theirs so many different sizes on e-bay, and i cant measure my own as its twisted up

anyone with a 5door focus facelift please help

Mine is 145mm wide, 56mm high

But please note that my Mk2 Focus is a pre-facelift model.

thanks for the quick reply mate,

i think it may be 145mm wide and 60mm high on my original which is much the same as yours,

close enough to your spec mate

thanks for measuring it for me B)

Lenny , lmao put it on Ebay , Yes i think 145mm is about right as i remember

Blimey mate, mangled is an understatement!!

Looks like you have a measurement now so at least I don't need to brave the wind and rain outside lol.

my rear badge has some white glue stuff around the edges and I was considering removing it to clean it up, or replace it but you've put me off now lol.

try removing the white with petrol mate,

get an old sock and wipe, could be just was residue as the bonding for the badge is black

Damn

ill just go put the Balaclava back in the hotpress ;)

Pree managed to remove his no problem and if you have a dentist drill like he does, you wont have a problem removing it,

but the rest of the pictures of what i done to the panel once i removed the badge,

wow they are way to explict to show on a ford forum,

such buthery ford would remove my focus from me, due to cruelty lol i tried to use a regular drill with an 8mm bit, like it was a dremil.... didnt go as planed

but 5 hours later the end result was great, :D

plan to fit the led panel in red to under the badge, then fit the badge on top

thanks mate, the worst is over,

glad pree has done a guide on this one, as i really dont recommend copying the above lol,

drill slipped and left 1 inch slash in my hand, and stanley slipped twice, will be worth it though lol too late to tun back now B)

On a related note, I'm thinking of replacing the TDCi badge on the rear of my Focus - the laquer is all chipped and missing, and the red letters are faded.

Replacements are cheap on eBay, but when I remove the original I expect to leave a load of sticky residue behind on the tailgate. What's the best way to remove this residue without damaging the paint?
