Default Rear Letters

My rear letters are missing (the word 'corvette' on the rear bumper) on the 80 I just got back from the shop. I figured Ecklers would sell these, but I couldn't find it anywhere on the site or on eBay. Is there a special name for it that I should be looking for? I found other years, but just not those, and the two local Corvette shops are closed on Saturday.

Side note, if anyone in the Tampa area has one they want to part this weekend let me know and I'll buy it today, they're the same for 80-82.

I know I've seen them recently. Maybe from www.trimparts.com I don't have the catalogue in front of me but I know I was browsing it the last day or so. (Hope I'm right. Don't want to wind up with egg on my face again.)

It looks like I'll be able to get one on Monday either from the restoration shop in Tampa or from Davies, hopefully one of the two will have it in stock. It's a discontinued part according to all of the local Chevy dealers, maybe that's why Ecklers and other places don't have them.

$66 for a chrome-painted piece of plastic, they get ya every time don't they.
