Default Letter "V" Rear Deck Emblem Letter Source

I have a 2021 Stingray Coupe with the standard Carbon Flash Metallic "Corvette" lettering on the rear deck. As I was detailing the car my micro fiber towel get under the "V" letter and I subsequently pulled half of it off.

Is there a source anywhere for just one letter in carbon flash metallic finish? I have found the full OEM set for about $80 dollars and single letters in black on ebay, but have not found single letters in carbon flash metallic. Any leads?

Thanks - Hunter

Couldn't you glue it back on?
Haven't seen anything but complete CORVETTE lettering for sale.

If you still have the V , go to the auto parts store and buy some VHB tape and some painters tape. Use the painters tape to align the letter by running tape from the R to the E above and below the letters. Pop the V into place . Super simple.

I subsequently pulled half of it off

Well if that's the case he's got 2 choices . De-badge the back end of the car or buy new lettering . Check the Corvette store ,Paragon or Ebay.

Unless you go to a salvage yard, you're not going to get just a V.
Here's a cheap set on Ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/23574462129...3ABFBM7JuWlsVn
Or the GM parts store https://www.gmpartsstore.com/oem-par...plate-84811670

The eBay link says they are gloss black. OP needs Carbon Flash Metallic. The GM Parts Store ones are Carbon Flash Metallic.
