Default Acrylic Camaro inserts

As the title say's. Anybody have these and what do you think of them. Are you satisfied with look? Are they holding up as you expected? I would really like to know before dumping around $50 plus shipping. I think they would look Bitch'n in red on the rear of my Black Z.

I have them and they're holding up well, but 20/20 hindsight I would spend the extra $ and get chromed ones.

I had the acrylic ones and they turned to **** after a while. The tin foil on the back of the letters to make it shiney started to fall off the acrylic. Don't waste your time or money on this ****.

I have the RK Sport black ones, they held up good for about 4 years then turned to crap, I just bought another set and they are doing fine. $50 every 4 years isn't bad I like them because they are thick and fill in the CAMARO area better. I would really like a black billet set, but I don't want to paint a billet set black, I want a true black peice.

I've got the urethrane ones from RKSports in hugger orange for my 97' anniversary SS Vert. Also have the urethrane one in black for my wife's 95 Z28 vert. They fill in the entire insert area and look great. Holding up fine...like new, but then again cars spend alot of time in garage. Believe they were $55 plus shipping. Here's a couple photos.....
