The Ebay knockoffs are probably not the same quality (could be inferior adhesive or less chrome coating), but who knows.  Might be worth a try at THAT price!

I have seen these in excellent quality

MAXtog- what is the distance from the bottom of the letters to the bottom edge? It looks like if I just draw a strait line from the "I" up to the corner of the fairing I will have the left and right distance.

Thanks Guys, that helps me out a lot! I am going to wait for a warmer day to put on.

Please note that ZG's photo is not a gen 2 and not even stock (aftermarket letters, I believe) and applied after repainting.  Not that it has to be exact or anything ;)

Sorry, I just pulled out stored photos and zoomed.
But it is scale.  I opened it in LibreOffice Draw, measured and confirmed.... it is exactly as high from the bottom as the lowercase letters are tall.   Left and right is easy, since you can see the screws above.
