Default fuel rail cover question

I found a site a long time ago that had custom made letters for the lsx corvette fuel rail covers. I was wondering if you guys knew what site it was because I cant find it anymore.

I was going to sand down the "Corvette" lettering, and add a "LSx S10" or "LSx Sdime" letters to it instead.

I'm pretty sure you have to fill the corvette lettering. You might have to take the frc to a sign maker and have them match the font, then they can print off whatever you want.

Ah, I see. Thats kinda what this company did. You told them what you wanted, and they etched out small, thin peices of aluminum tape that could be laid out over the "Corvette" name.

a vey easy fix for the corvette lettering could be to contact Specialized Stainless on here, and look at their stainless plates they make to cover the lettering so you dont have to fill it in. the will also etch anything you want in them, so that would take car of the LSx S10 lettering you wanted to.

Please don't do the "LSx Sdime"

How about LS10?

I can hook you up with some custom covers like these and put what ever logo or wording your heart desires on them.

LS10 would be cool, never thought about that.

These folks do that sort of work also. They start with repop fuel rail covers with no letters.
