Default Red bumper lettering ?

I searched and searched and found some good info but nothing solid so sorry to all that have been there seen this. I have a 94 white coupe and really would like to add red CORVETTE lettering on the bumper. I checked a lot of other peoples pictures and what sites they think they got it from but if somebody could please post their own 91-96 white vette with the red 3D/bubbled/domed/whatever you'd like to call it lettering(not the flat $9 lettering from some places, been there threw that out) and where you got it from I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance all.

I've been toying with the same idea for my white on red 94 vert. Had them on my C5s and liked them but can't decide what color for this one. I'm leaning toward Red since the interior is red and will likely paint the calipers red also. I'd really like to see some white cars with Red inserts too. Maybe even some white C5s to get an idea. Come on guys, somebody surely has some pics. of this combination.

I got mine from Ecklers on both of my 94's. It is good quality and lasts. I purchased the red that matches the brake lights for my polo green. It's a little expensive but well worth it. It will look even better on white.

Put some white ones from Ecklers on my black 93, looks pretty good.

I put black lettering on my red 95 years ago. It looks so much better and I always wonder why the factory didn't do it.

I'll try adding a picture later. As a new user, it seems kinda complicated...

I got mine from a local shop, autoxtc.com. They are reflective red.

Guess what I'm asking for is photos of guys with white vettes that have either
-Corvette Centrals "red acrylic letter set" or their "hologram red dynamic polyurethane letter set"
- Ecklers brake light red 3-D letter kit or red plastic letter kit(dunno what the difference is)
-MidAmerica acrylic red letter.

Any relatively close up pics would be appreciated. Only difference between some of them seems to be the price. Just trying to see their depth and what they look like in real life. Thanks all.
