68 Cuda Formula S 383 Hood Inserts ---- BEAUTIES!

Just wondering how it will affect value ? Mine are in good shape. But yours look near perfect. Any thoughts on it ?
Or am i over thinking ?
I took a harder look at your Inserts...Wow.
These are the closest to NOS I have seen for 383s.
Just clean them up with soap & water or keep them the way they are.
----------------------------
So many Cuda Guys take the Standard, 340 or 383s and immediately run off to the Chrome Shop.
Dont rechrome these inserts. The rechrome is very rarely done correctly and actually comes back much worse and then you wasted 9-1100 and six +/- months.
Last pair I had rechromed (for a Customer), came back with the 340 letters filled. Hated to send them back, considering the original cond was not too bad.
Not trying to rag Chromers, but the majority do some really hack work. There are great places out there, but damned if I can find them.
