If you are talking the Shelby Logo for Door Handles, I think they were deleted early on. Problems with the logo or something. Mine doesn't have them.

I believe they were going to be Laser engraved but it made the door handles too brittle, then they were going to do a sticker but we never received them and we haven't heard anything more ourselves.
We picked our car up Sept. 13, 2007. John Walker was the one handling these packages at the time, he's long gone, moved onto
his own ventures, and we haven't heard any more since.

I have them on mine. Only 40th that has them, but it's not a production 40th. It was Carroll's 07 Vista Blue and used as prototype for the 40th, CSM07XL000X. On each door handle is the Corbra and the word Shelby. They are stick-ons. According to Gary Patterson, certain cleaning fluids would make them come off, so they decided not to do that. When they etched them, they became brittle and cracked. So, in the end, nothing on the door handles.

Where there is a will...there is a way....Steeda has seem to find a way to etch them without cracking.

Heck...it looks like you could etch the crap out of them before they break.

It's fine if Shelby doesn't want to build them...but to say they can't...well...you be the judge.
