I don't really care for the fireman logo.
Getting a badgeless grill will also require black bars and matching silver surround painting for my SB car = expensive.
Anyone create/buy a custom, non godshead grille emblem?
I saw a cobra snake in one once that looked cool....
Please post a picture of what you have and info how to get one
thanks!

Ha, Ha, Ha ..... I've heard this "Fireman Logo" before at a car show. "Hey, where did you get the fireman center caps for your wheels." :lol: I guess lotsa people get confused between the Mercury God's Head and the fireman's helmet. ;)

Cool! I sent him an email, looking for that style but with a cobra where your skull is.
Did he make your entire emblem for you, as pictured?

Considered this first - waiting on a grille cost quote. I need Silver Birch surround with black bars, so it might get expensive to pay everyone..
looks killer though.

No I actually lucked out on this. In one of the long threads in Daniel's forum (colex) he showed a picture of the punisher emblem. He custom made it for another member but for whatever reason, deal went south. I asked if it was still available and he said yes. It's one of a kind, which I like. He should be able to make a cobra fit for your application.

:beer: THAT would be perfect. How did you get that done?
I would buy that and be done.

IMHO a Cobra emblem has nothing to do with Marauders. Nothing wrong with that if it's what you love....just saying. I wasn't partial to the waterfall so I decided on a Godshead design from Daniel at Colex. Badgeless is another option but IMHO our cars need a bit of bling. (badge and polished aluminium wheels) or they seem very plain to me. That said, ANY Marauder is amazing.
I saw the cobra on another ar and considered it as better than the waterfall...thinking of other inserts with the MERCURY MARAUDER surround. My car is different - it is two toned with pin striping the leads to the grille. I think badgeless might look good on mine = enough bling going on. They ARE ALL awesome!

thanks for the info. I'm thinking he should make the MERCURY MARAUDER surround like yours, with a blank insert area - then allow custom inserts.
I'll talk to him :beer:

Custom badgeless. Freeway tire chunk removal method. :mad2: This was a Zack grill at one point.

im not a big fan of the badgeless front grill.......unless something is there to take away from the void of removing the badge like a cowl hood or chin spoiler

without either one of those the front looks too empty

I'm really digging this. Are the bars gone, or just all black?

Isn't Guittard22 using the Punisher theme on his Chrysler Marauder too?

I've been thinking of something different as well, but finding something not overly detailed yet detailed enough for the Daniels CAD system is my challenge.

Combine correcting your pinion angle after lowering the body and this grille emblem - you're my new hero :beer:

I finally had to replace the red led eyes for amber ones - SCPD had a few overzealous officers who felt I must be trying to impersonate a LEO w/two little red leds in my grill - I guess the two full size red skulls on the tailpipes and the red skull on the windshield is the new trim level for un-marked cruisers! LOL

what do you guys think about the hood emblems similar to the old marquis' where it had come up off the header panel or the grille? i have a expedition that i bought a cheesy looking ford hood emblem and put a junkyard f150 emblem on it to cover the cheesy part( so basically using it for a base mount) and i think it looks awesome and have gotten alot of compliments for it..

WOW, you better duck and cover on that one. When I asked about custom hood ornament for my Mark V awhile back and they thought it was for my Marauder, I had the fear they would show up at my door, take the keys from me and leave me with a Yugo...:shake:

I have to upload some pictures on my car - they are red now - keeping polished aluminum polished while exhaust is running through them is insane!

They look like this:
