Default Fuel rail covers...

What mods would I have to make to the LS1 fuel rail covers to make them fit my formula? And how would I go about filling in the word CORVETTE on them so I can have a custom job done?

I've seen some on ebay that say TRANS AM on them. they look slick. i'd like to get a pair myself. i'm pretty sure you just snap them on. i've also seen some that say formula on them. i think fbodymotorsports.com may have them. they're about $150 i think. let me know if you find em.

You have to have them filled in with a apoxy or clearcoat the clearcoat holds up better with the heat, any paint shop can do it.

How is that a problem? Those decals are clearcoated over with 3 coats of automotive clear. They are sealed in from heat and dirt and will never peel, and never get dirty. Plus they are cut on a computer controlled vinyl cutting machine that uses outdoor heavy duty vinyl. Soooooo, I'm not seeing the problem.
