1. Why cut mylar and PVC logos?

3. How did you do the alignment and then application?
4. Any pics of the application process?

I may just do this!

1. That's just the material the laser cutting shop had.
2. I tried both but I preferred they flexible mylar since it followed the curve of the car.
3. The template has alignment lines on it. I simply aligned the top horizontal line to the trunk lid edge (carbon fiber piece). Or you can align it to whatever you want. Then I aligned the vertical line to the centerline of the car (lid latch, backup camera, etc.). Then I taped it to the car. I think this is all shown in my photos...
4. Yeah, do you not see the photos?

1. Those were cut to create a physical template to ensure correct logo placement. IMO that material is good for flexibility and ease of use.
2. None were applied to the car to leave a 'GT3 logo'. The final GT3 logo is a hard plastic piece that you buy separately and is placed within the template created in #1. You pull off the template once you have applied the actual GT3 plastic characters.

Ah. Yes. This template is just a stencil used to apply the actual GT3 badge you buy separately. You put the template/stencil on the car. Then place the GT3 letters into the stencil for alignment. You don't need the stencil/template I guess. I tried it with just the badge you buy from Suncoast. But it's hard to really get in centered and level. I tried using masking tape to create a horizon line on the bumper but it just didn't come out right. So that's why I made this template.

Yeah, I followed the template and made the spacing between the letters roughly equidistant at their tops vs. more space between the T-G as it came from Suncoast/was on the 996/7.

I think I may be a little lower placement-wise than the OP, which wasn't intentional, but I think it looks good. I just used paper and an X-Acto knife vs. laser-cut mylar. I'd say I'm roughly 2/5 down 'spatially' on the flat area between the lights. I used a laser level and looked at multiple angles trying to find what I felt was a reasonable visual/design center.
