Go Big or Go Home: Style 8 XLG Chrome Block Letters
Every boat ramp has one: the guy who spent three summers restoring a fishing boat and then named it with tiny letters you need binoculars to read. Don't be that guy. When a name needs to be read from across a parking lot, a dock, or a job site, Style 8 XLG chrome block letters are the ones to reach for.
What makes Style 8 different
- Extra-large block capitals. Style 8 is the XLG member of our chrome block letter family, roughly 3 inches tall. The exact height is listed on the product page, so check it before you measure your space.
- Sold one character at a time. Pick each letter, number or punctuation mark you need from the drop-down menu. "BOSS" means ordering two S's, not a whole alphabet you'll never use.
- Triple-plated chrome over automotive-grade ABS. It's a mirror finish made for any smooth, hard surface, indoors or outdoors.
- Peel-and-stick adhesive backing. No drilling, no studs, no holes in your tailgate.
Where XLG letters shine
- Tailgates and truck toolboxes. A last name, a nickname, or a business name across the tailgate reads clearly at a stoplight.
- Boat names on a smooth, clean hull area above the waterline.
- Trailers, golf carts, mailboxes and garage workbenches, anywhere bold, shiny lettering beats a decal.
Count before you click
Write your word out on paper and tally every letter, including repeats. Then measure the flat space you have. A good rule of thumb is to leave about a finger's width between letters and keep a little breathing room at both ends. If the word won't fit at XLG size, shorten it (initials look great in chrome) or pick a smaller style rather than crowding it.
Line them up like a pro
- Clean the surface with soap and water, then rubbing alcohol.
- Run a strip of painter's tape as a straight baseline.
- Lay the letters out on the tape with their backing still on, step back, and adjust the spacing.
- Start with the middle letter, then work outward, pressing each one firmly for about 30 seconds.
- Pull the tape and give the adhesive a day before a car wash.
