SS_bnoon_SS Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 I'm looking for anyone that makes the SS lettering for the doors/tailgate out of billet aluminum. The gray stock letters just don't do it for me with my chrome wheels... ;)
misterp Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 I thought GM used chromed ones on some of the newer SS's? I am almost sure of it, someone here has posted this in the last few weeks, I remember they're damn expensive and you cannot find a small chrome set to replace the dash emblems. Mr. P.

Mr. P. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All I have seen have been rumors about chrome lettering, never any pics. Anyone have any more info on these?
SS_bnoon_SS Posted September 14, 2005 Author Report Posted September 14, 2005 O.K., found some on Ebay listing the genuine GM part number as well as a picture of the chrome SS letters. Part number 15178666 for two sets of SS letters (that means four letters of "S")... to bad we need three sets including the ones on the tailgate... Oh well, gmpartsdirect.com has them for $36.96 PER SS! The ones on EBay are over $50 plus shipping already for two sets. Shopman1, come in Shopman1, we have a project for you, over...
Dylan06SS Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Yeah... the guy selling them on Ebay got greedy. You used to be able to get them in sets of 3... then he changed it and sold them in pairs forcing you to pay more for a complete set and ending up w/ an extra set. I suggest you go in with someone else and get 3 pairs that way you end up w/ 6 split 2 ways and no extras. If you're interested I'll go in with you. Whats the price?

Whats the price? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've got to many machinist friends made to pay that much for factory chrome letters. Are they actually metal, or are they chromed plastic like most cheap factory crap??? I should be able to get a set of three SS's made in billet aluminum for less than that... If I can't, I'll have to pony up I guess.
ssjonathan Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 I have the chrome SS emblems from ebay on mine. I love them but he has gone up quite a bit it seems. I got my set of three for I think it was like $45 or so. Check my profile for pics. I gave up posting pics in here a long time ago!!
ssjonathan Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 Hey what do you know I finally got it to work!!!
SS_bnoon_SS Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Posted September 15, 2005 http://www.rearwheels.com has polished stainless SS badges that are $34 per SS... Daaaaaaaaang... That's just not justifiable for little letters like that.
ssjonathan Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 Here is an ebay link not great but a little better than what you have found. http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?s...=&fsop=1&fsoo=1

jon1178 Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 just a question but couldnt you get the ones on the truck chromed?
ssjonathan Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 Oops try this. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SS-Silverad...sspagenameZWDVW <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Again, over 50 bucks and you only get two sets... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah he has definately gone up since I got mine. Though I really do like them, I am not sure if I would pay that either!!
