Default "Stingray" script letters

anyone know of a place to get the letters STINGRAY to be used on the rear bumper to replace the CORVETTE script?

not the vinyl letters but the actual 3D letters.

Since no one has yet responded.... I'm sure google would be your friend... and, ebay, of course. Look at pix of other year Vettes and see if any have script you like. I replaced the gaudy front emblem on my C5 with a smaller, more subtle one from an earlier year I painted body color. However, any such "Stingray" you find may not be the same size and/or font as the emblem you wish to replace, but might work. Then too, the way the word is presented has changed over the years, as well, complicating things for you, perhaps.

Another option is to look for letter sets at hobby stores and sites, simply picking out the ones to spell "stingray" however you wish. Also, checking around might find somewhere with a 3D printer that could do anything you wish. Finally, I have fabbed my own letters and numbers out of various thicknesses of aluminum sheet to meet my needs. Time consuming, yes... but it allows for what might otherwise be nigh on impossible. All the best.

If you ever find a source for 3D letters rather than vinyl ones, please post it up.

Then you need Stingray in "BLOCK" letters as opposed to "Script".
Not going to be easy to find as I don't remember any models that used a STINGRAY body emblem in block lettering.
Perhaps you can get one made custom.

I'm curious as to where you find this?
And what do you mean by "a font called Stingray"?

Ok, cool, someone must be making them aftermarket, I didn't think GM had ever produced a Stingray emblem in block letters like that.
