Black Chrome Camaro Inserts I've been looking for inserts for the letters just above the rear bumper on my 2000 SS Camaro. I've found stainless steel and chrome inserts. What I am looking for is black chrome inserts.
If you know where I can get these, please reply with the web address or phone # of the supplier.
Thanks for the help

oh, black chrome would be so pimp. Check google to see if they can find you a place that will black chrome things. That would be cool because then you could send them anything. 
Rims, calipers, inserts, emblems.... etc...
I remember on eBay there was an auction for some place that was willing to black chrome a set of rims, i think they were c6 z06 or something c6.

I will post some pics when I finally do whatever it is that I do. 
I'm going to keep looking for a while longer before I settle for painting a chrome set.
My car is in the body shop right now anyway. I'm the one that had the Horrible day!!!! post.

If your so stuck on having it Black Chrome the real deal then buy a plain set un polished and send it out to be black chromed, or you can by a black candy to go over the emblems to tint the chrome black, which looks exactly the same....but maybe a lil more actual black of a color, vs a gunmetal color....

If you spray VHT on there it will be a grainy finish and you'll want to clearcoat them so the tint doesn't fade over time with washing. If you want to spend the time wet sanding them and then polishing them, which would prob be a PITA, go for it. I like your idea of black chrome inserts though, they'd really stand out and would look badass.
