SS Letters On - Nice!!
Well, I got my SS letters on my pewter coupe yesterday and man do they ever make that rearend look better. I put them on the front also but the back is what impress's me most. Also got around to putting my framesavers on. For those who are thinking about doing it, don't try to use the old run of the mill bits. I just had one of those variety pack of drill bits that are good for wood,metal,etc. and they wouldn't touch it. Might of well have been using my finger. Had to go to the hardware store and buy a good 5/16. Now if it would just quite raining so I could enjoy it.

We do need pics of this kind of mod. I also got some letters for Xmas but it's to cold here to put them on. Spring is around the corner now.

Just put my inserts on (from SS Inserts) and they fit great and look even better. I was pleased to find the that the front ones fit more flush than some other brands I'd seen.

Love the look of the SS letters on pewter (see avatar!). Frame savers do their job!! Got them and rail guards as package from Andy for WAY WAY cheaper than anyone else had them.
Enjoy!

I agree, I also have them on my Mag red and really like the accent. SSInsert is a quality company to do business with I have seen several good posts about their service.
