Re: thirdgen ranch
emblems came in in a timely manner they look great couldn't ask for better looking emblems. only problem i have with is of no fault of thirdgen ranch i want to make that completely clear for some reason they do not fit either of my cars the 86 or the 91 ?? the width of my old emblem is 1.250 the new one is 1.340 length i can't get cause calipers are not big enough but placing them down on a flat surface and laying them all out together with a straight edge on both ends the new ones are about 1/16th longer. there are the rocker emblems. the rear emblem worked great i tried these and they wouldn't fit into the recess i was wondering some opinions it's not that much of a size difference the new ones have a beveled edge all the way around where mine do not so could i just lightly sand the bevel down to remove the little extra? and has anyone else had an issue like this ?
