Default High Quality SS Insert Letters

Howdy, I need some help locating where to buy High Quallity SS Insert Letters Front and Rear Bumper for my Vette 2002. I was rear ended Saturday and the Insurance Company gave me the go to order them myself and they will pay for it. So want to buy the Best. Any help on where to get them would be greatly appreciated. Also I got them to give me the old rear bumber which really only suffered some minor hairline cracks...so I will have a wallmounted rear bumper in my garage as well soon, Yipee. So I came out all right. I made sure they replaced the rear bumper with a brand new one, not just spot fix the old one. Your Help Please!

Custom Corvette Accessories. Give Chip a ring. He even has black chrome.

customcorvetteaccessories.com

Another plus - he wasn't involved in a huge mortgage fraud scheme in Arizona.

Can't say that for all the SS insert letter makers.

Mid America sells a Die Cut set instead of Laser Cut which I have yet to see but I understand are nice and a bit different.
They are thicker (2mm) with the edges rounded.

I've had the SS Inserts (Black Titanium) on my car for a few years now, they still look like new. They cost a little more than most, but they are worth it.
