Default Rear Corvette letters

Pulled the chrome a couple weeks ago and just received the black,
Can someone measure from the bottom up to tell me the correct height?
Thanks

Glad you got your measurements. However, my advice is to use blue painters' tape and mask off the area around the letters. Then use a pencil to mark on the tape where each letter is positioned. Then remove/replace the letters one at a time.

Personally, I'm liking the look of just having the C7 logo and no letters.

the carbon flash black lettering now comes in a foam retainer making it easier to place it on the car, properly spaced.
