Didn't know Shimano STI levers nameplates can be purchased
Crashed my bike and scratched the 105 STI lever name plate. Did an internet search and found a ton of places offer the replacement plates for under $10 (e.g. Amazon.com; $17.6 for both left & right plates incl. shipping). Problem solved.
As I was looking, I noticed the Ultegra and the 105 nameplates are very similar. Anyone who has first-hand experience to verify if they are interchangeable?

Probably the same. But are you really that vain?
I broke one on my 9 spd Dura Ace, never bothered replacing it. I definitely woudn't replace it with something different from my actual shifter, but whatever.

Ahh so thats how I facelift my tiagra shifters, like a placebo for shifting, "I think it shifts better, I mean it feels like it I think... I mean it says durace now"
