Default rear inserts

ok, so for the last two years of owning my car i have replaced my inserts twice and am now on my third set!! Are the polyurethane ones from RKsport worth the $55 they are asking? I must say i have always liked how the hard inserts filled in the indentations better than the stickers that i have. Does any body else have them for cheaper?

I had silver ones on my 2001 camaro and i had a hard time getting the water spots off. But they hold up. I have chrome decals now on my t/a and have'nt had a problem with them.

DragonZ28 makes some VERY NICE stainless inserts. Mine are polished and shine better than my chrome (yes, chrome) wheels. His user name is muffinbuster on eBay.

Stainless Steel on my Z.. absolutely love em.. they seem to balance out the back of the car. Got em off ebay ( seller mentioned above). Great quality, holding up great.

A little metal polsh and they shine right up like brand new... i just use the aluminum polish i use on my wheels.. the blue goopey stuff.

I looked at your photobucket, you have a silver car with chrome rims and a polished billet grill. A berger panel with the stainless would go PERFECT, besides it says you already have chrome SLP badges??
