Default SS Inserts Question

Did the SS Insert mode to my Vette and love them.

Question is, the middle sliver of the E's on the front plate cover seems to be loose or should I say not being held on by much.

Has anyone had a problem with them coming off on the highway or am I just worrying to much?

I saw if it's flopping around when the wind blows... it's too loose.

If you're talking about the fact that you can press on it and tilt it up or down a bit, that's pretty normal. Don't forget the bumper is poly... not stiff like the FG panels too.

I had mine for almost a year as DD.. no issues

Half of one of my letters on the back did not adhear, I cleaned and preped it according to instructions . Soemone here suggest 3m spray adhesive, the heavy duty one. I put that on and it looks good now. Evey now and then when I wash it I check the letters, but no longer concerned.

Looks great, I did not do the front letters as we are required to have a front plate here in CO.
