The vinyl inserts are much cheaper, so I'd like to hear if those would cover minor gouges, or if I'm better off spending 2-3x as much for the metal?

I have some really old vinyl letters on mine that look bad up close. I'm planning on the metal ones like your AM link. I've seen a set on a mustang locally and I think they look good. I would be concerned about the longevity of them sticking to the bumper if I daily'd mine, but she's a garage queen, so I think they'll be fine.

I do not think thin vinyl would cover gouges looking up really close, but I wouldn't think you could see them a few feet away (like standing there by the bumper).
