If you look closely at a real 82 GT hood ornament, you will see that it
is a modified standard 79 - 82 piece, you can see the lines which
separated the red white and blue stripes under the black. I say this
because it would probably be easier to modify a standard piece than
it would be to find a genuine one. The clear plastic is often cracked
on these things, so I'm thinking you could remove the clear plastic,
blacken the red white and blue portion, and apply new clear plastic.
This "art" is known as cloisonet (don't know if I spelled it right). This
process is used to make jewelery. Try doing an internet search on
the subject if you are interested in going this route.
The 82 GT is my favorite fox body.
