No but I'd start with DakotaDocMartin. Maybe he can add those to what he already does.

Shameless plug--.... I'm getting some under hood and LS2 letters chrome plated. Should have samples in about a month.

Hey! That might be a good idea!

But, I'm coming out with a couple of other items first. Later this spring.

Nice idea vavoom, I would rather have the metal instead of domed plastic.

Art,

"Doc" got some "LS2" letters made for me last year which were the same text style and size as the "SS" letters of the "SSR" logo on the tailgate. I had scanned a set of the "SS" letters of the tailgate logo and sent it to him to be used as a template. Then I got both the "LS2" letters and 2 sets of SSRcobra's "SSR" letters electroplated chrome last year by Custom Coatings. They turned out very nice. I'm sure that you will like your letters as well.

That chrome stuff is ADDICTING!!!!!

When you run out of options with the SSR get a new stock Harley and go for it
