Hoping someone has a few minutes of free time to help me out...needing to place PORSCHE and GT4 badges that were removed. I'm having my Porsche Collision Certified shop affix the badges since I want it done right, however, they don't have a template (I purchased the emblems and they came with a spacer for PORSCHE).
I've read the threads regarding emblem placement and want to make sure it's done correctly. With that said, I'm hoping someone can give me some baseline numbers to give to the shop as reference points.
I was hoping to get the following measurements:
P-O-R-S-C-H-E
Measurement from P to E (to make sure my template is 100% Accurate)
Measurement from P to O (I'm assuming the distance between each letter is equidistant)
Distance from Top of "P" to Trunk Line
Distance from Top of "S" to Trunk Line
Distance from Top of "E" to Trunk Line
Distance from Top of "P" to Left End of Trunk Line (furthest most point where the body line meets the tail light)
Distance from Top of "E" to Right End of Trunk Line (furthest most point where the body line meets the tail light)
G-T-4
Measurement from G to 4
Horizontal Distance from Leftmost edge of P to G
Horizontal Distance from Rightmost edge of E to 4
Distance from Bottom of S to Top of T
Distance from Bottom of T to Bend/Line in Rear Bumper
Just make a physical template off of another GT4. I would never trust an installer to line the letters up perfectly based on individual measurements like this.

Thanks in advance for any help!
Did you ever get any feedback, especially Measurement from G to 4 Horizontal Distance from Leftmost edge of P to G Horizontal Distance from Rightmost edge of E to 4 Distance from Bottom of S to Top of T Distance from Bottom of T to Bend/Line in Rear Bumper
I unfortunately never got specific details from anyone. I fortunately have a Porsche Collision Shop that's nearby that I happen to know the owner of and they were able to help me get the badges on perfectly. Sorry to not be of more help.

I have the same question/problem.
Bottom of S to top of T is 25mm Bottom of T to where the bumper bend starts is 75mm Leftmost part of the G to the tip of the 4 (<-- right most part as shown in that number, not sure what this is called) is 105mm Leftmost part of the P to right side of the E is 530mm. Hard to measure due to the curvature. It's difficult to align the P and E with the edges of the GT4 emblem, but this pic might help you align it.

Hope these help.

Could you tell me the distance from top of the S to the light?

With that said, I'm hoping someone can give me some baseline numbers to give to the shop as reference points.
