SS Badge Placement

SS Badge Placement
well as some of ya may know. my car was in a pretty big wreck from what i can tell by a previous owner. there's a few runs in the front bumper, there's a few hard tape lines here and there, and other "tell tale" marks of body shop hackery....but the biggest thing that's pissed me off for such a long time was the SS emblem on the back of my car, when whatever hack body shop put it back together, they just "stuck it on"
well the "stuck it on" upside down and backwards"! (*****-is maximus) since i've had the car, it's been SSthen the bowtie. instead of the other way around. (you can even tell in my sig pic that it's not in the right spot ) i went to the dealership to get a new emblem once and it was like $113 for the 2 so i said F that.... but i got ambitious the other day peeled it off and re double sided taped it....now my question is after all that BS
Does anyone have a picture from the rear of their SS or even better a picture of the rear holding up a measuring tape or something like that so i can put the badge in the correct location!
thanks again!

Your best bet is to just find a local SS or get some pics on here of one you know hasn't been wrecked. There is no such thing as a "right" placement for them, seeing as SLP had their guys put them all on by hand. So each one will be slightly different, although in the same general area.
As I said, just find a pic, use the taillight above it as a reference point, and have at it.
