I got them from http://mustangtuning.com/ plus a billet fuel door (which was missing some minor hardware). I'm overall pretty disappointed with them because of my order... I figured they would have been decent being linked to from this site.

Thanks again for the suggestions.

I don't know why I overlooked this one but....Try black RTV sealer.It's not effected by heat,solvents,and can be removed easily.The residue would come off with rubbing compound.

Is it really authentic stainless steel or is it a vinyl sticker made to look like stainless steel? check if the back peels off

EDIT: Dude considering you got gyped on your hardware for the fuel door i'd call up mustangtuning and bitch em out and find your answers there

In reply to justingt: They are stainless steel, one side is not completely polished, and is the side that faces to the car, the other side has plastic over it to protect it, and isn't sticky.

I improvised to make the fuel door go in, it snaps in on one side, and didn't have nuts to go with the screws where the old fuel door unscrewed. Some Loc-tight helps there.

I put the lettering on with 3M double-sided tape, they're not flush with the inside of the letter slots, but they still look great, I'll take a picture sooner or later.
