Hey yall, what was the deal with the chrome MOOMBA lettering? Was there ever a resolve? Is this something that would be better left to my dealership?

If you are talking about the aftermarket buy, most of us didn't get a good result with the largest letters but Brandon's looked great. If you are a good installer or know someone I have a brand new set for the 2 sides plus the XLSV logos for the rear sides you can use to get your LS in chrome too. Would sell pretty cheap.

Kane... weren't they "dented" something? I couldn't find the original deal on those. Thinking of just maybe having Dallas ski do it.

I ordered mine thru Cyndi at Atlanta Marine (through a group buy hookup from Drew) They go on pretty easy once you know where you want to put them...

Unless you are a real good installer or have one to do it the large letters get air bubbles behind them and it makes them look bumpy instead of smooth. I just kind of threw in the towel after my install attempt. The company sent me a replacement set so I still have a full new set for each side. For about half what dealer ones cost you can have a set of chrome letters. I would recommend a pro installer though. Otherwise, maybe try Atlanta Marine for a price on the OEM ones although a few guys have had issues with those letters too -- different issues but if you have a problem while installing yourself they will be hard to return.

Hmmm.. .ok, thanks for the advice. Sounds like something I would screw up.

I too have a set of the non-OEM letters for cheap. I ended up ordering the OEM letters to replace my original OEM letters that had come off in places. I installed the new OEM letters myself and no issues so far... fingers crossed. I did add a chrome tribal graphic under the MOOMBA lettering and have had numerous compliments on how shape the boat looks, which is way more than I got when it had just the original lettering... anyway...
