I have not seen flat black, only black chrome and black refletive. You could always go buy some flat black paint and paint it in.

Just go to your local vinyl/tint shop and have them cut some for you... Way cheaper than anything else you could ever do.. Hell when I had my Stang I got my shop to throw them in with the tint..

Just buy some UPR inserts and paint those, that would be easy.

i bought the american muscle shiny black ones and painted them flat black before but the paint just came off.

...the steel ones also dont fit up against the bumper.

I am have my bumper re-painted next week and my old ones have to come off for the painting

Because its already costing $750 to just respray my bumper and every other shop wants to charge like an extra hour of labor plus paint to do the flat black letters.

Just have them tape off the letters and re do your bumper then you buy a flat black spray bomb.

i was just shoppin around for estimates and some shop wanted to charge me $960 just to respray...they said only because it was a 3 stage paint.....I ran out of there so fast.

...this body shop is top notch, it should come out looking exactly like it did before...perfect
