Default Fuel Rail Cover Inserts

Does anyone sell the inserts in Stainless Steel for a C5?
The Chrome vinyl decals are curling and deforming due to the heat I'm guessing.

You might check with Mid-America, Ecklers, West Coast Corvettes, etc. They sell all sorts of inserts.

Thanks for the response. I did, all I could find is inserts for the front and rear areas in stainless and decals for the fuel rails. I'm on my second set of decals and they are discoloring and curling. They look good at first however after about a day's worth of driving they degrade.

Check with Tony at Eurosportdaytona.com or Chip at CCA. Neither one list the Stainless but sometimes that doesn't mean they don't have them. If they don't they may be able to steer you to who does.
After I saw your avatar I just had to send this pic.

Thanks.

That's cool. I don't think I have seen Rat Fink on a Vette before. I'll have to be on the lookout at the next Goodguys car show.

I found an all stainless steel letter insert for C5 FRC once but they are out of stock and could not tell me when they would be available. I ended up buying the Acrylic letters from Eckler's and they worked well. They use a 3M adhesive which everybody knows 3M makes the best adhesive...good luck.
