I crashed about a month ago and scratched up my shift/brake levers. It's all cosmetic but the part that got it the worst was the part over the top that says "Ultegra" on it. This cracked a bit. Is there a way to replace just that 'vanity' piece cheaply?

I didn't even know it was called a nameplate until I did my own faceplant. I left the bashed-in nameplates (along with the blood on my helmet strap :rolleyes:) as a kind of badge of honor ...

Thanks, I'll talk to my LBS about it. I had no clue if it was a seperate piece or if I would have to replace to whole thing. Glad to see it's an option!
