Hey, man, take a good look at the product you are selling. There is a sticker on the letters that says, "This letter set will fit both the rear and dash of the Corvette C6." Or did you send me something other than what I ordered?

They will fit the dash too, but be careful and take your time with the installation. That dash is hard to get things to stick, but the bumper will let the letters stick like glue.

Gee, I wonder if that is because they have a sticky substance on them called something like 3M... adhesive (glue).

Yes, the 3M adhesive is good for the bumper, but we don't sell them as dash letters, because many customers have trouble getting them to stick to the dash.

We've never had a customer not get them to stick to the rear bumper. They stick like glue to the rear bumper.

The dash is another story.

By the way, we've got more sets coming in on Tuesday.

The letter kits are the same for the bumper or the dash. We just recommend you stick them to the bumper, not the dash.

Default is it real carbon fiber or 'carbon fiber look'

I had a set of real carbon fiber letters for my c5 but have only been able to find 'carbon fiber look' letters for the c6. So, are these real carbon fiber or just carbon fiber look. If not, does anyone have any idea of how I can get real carbon fiber letters, I am not a fan of the fake stuff. Thanks

Question: Other than the chrome, are the other colors a firm metal material, or are they those flexible stickers? I've tried various stickers and they always come off....I'm thinking the firm metal type will stick and not get washed off. Thx.

These letters are flat. Does anyone know of a source for letters that are are raised and rounded? I remember seeing them for the C5 a year or so ago, but can't find any for the C6.

By the way, this is the set you get from RPI Designs:
