50mm seems about right.
I looked at Savage's rendering vs one of the photos. It looks to me like the top of Savage's skirt is about the same distance from the center as the bulge of the head. (Head bulge is accurate because we have a real measurement there.) Eg: the corners of the head are about above the corners of the top of the skirt.

Compare that to a photo of the droid on stage. Of course lens/rendering stuff is hard to know if it's perfect. However, to me, with Mk I eyeball, it looks like the top of the skirt is a little wider than the head buldge. On the left it almost touches the vertical metal line of the stage box, but the head is away from that.
That could just be the angle, but the other side is also further and the corner-corner distance is longer on the bottom than the top. I was toying with the idea of increasing the skirt top about 25mm and the bottom by 50mm.
