Default ssinserts ss emblems..

SSinserts sells the stainless steel SS emblems for 28 dollars. does this include 4 S's or 2 S's.

That is damn expensive for 2 damn S's and i am not really too keen on spending that but if it is for 4 S's i will probobly buy them.

Any others offer these emblems?

I am looking for stainless steel and one stainless steel bowtie for the back.
thanks
louie

I bought them from SS inserts, and its $28 for one side..so you only get 2 SS's i didnt know that until i bought them..but i really think it was well worth the money..i get tons of compliments on them.

I did contact him and he didn't sell the "SS". If he does now then he started making them after I requested some.

I also bought them from ssinserts and put them on the rear. I only wanted a pair and yes they are expensive. They are not polished stainless. They are mirrored stainless btw which dragonz28 pointed out to me. This means they have a coating on them so they have an actual mirror finish.

I was considering SS emblems from a Chevelle, but they would have cost nearly as much!

Cheap clear acrylic plastic with a mirrored coating on the back. Stick with the Stainless Steel as the mirrored plastic is tacking looking.

I bought the "mirrored" ones from Spinner Designs and already had 2 of them fall off, and yes, I do know how to prep surfaces for decals, emblems etc. I'm going to be replacing mine with SS Inserts. I used their stuff on Fuel Rail Covers before and it's top quality. Expensive is in the eyes of the beholder.
