you might find that pretty hard mate - most joints sell em for over $30 new....rare spare etc all for round $30-35...not like there a run of the mill product so yeh... We just got a friend for his 18th a gold metallic Chev badge for his VY commo ute and that was $90 just for the one badge

try a diferent ford dealer for a better price and get them to post em to ya.
i do this all the time to my local ford dealer, parts are cheaper at the ford place 100km away than in my home town. when i get the parts cheaper elsewhere i go back to fords in my home town and show them what i got and for what price. after doing this a few times they are a bit more helpfull now

Just drop into the wreckers every couple of weeks and always keep some fishing trace or guitar wire in your pocket... Cairns wreckers on Bunda Street had 3 EF XRs come in a week once. Nicco got some suspesion components and I got badges
 You can get lucky like i did... But I don't have any spare ones now.

I know... Mr Soul moved to Bris-vegas, Nicco is only up from the Ville during breaks from uni, Effalcon works over in Perth and isn't back for long and most of the other members aren't active.
The worse thing about QSS is they are mostly holden and import owners as well. Although they do organise regular meets so there is a good thing for them. Your Fairlaine is pretty tidy to. I've seen it around a few times... |
