So I got new gloss black emblems but can not find a template to install it. I couldn't tape the original emblem because I had my car full Xpel wrapped. Could anyone provide me a template on the rear "M2" emblem?

I actually need this as well. Can someone perform some measurements on their stock M2 as to the location of the badge from the edges of the trunk?

It would be greatly appreciated.

Can someone take a moment to provide the measurements of the stock location of the badge?

If this isn't getting enough visibility, I'll make its own thread. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you! Could you also verify the measurement from the right side of the trunk to the edge of the '2' as well?

i was going to measure this for you but its difficult since the sides of the truck dont come down perpendicular to the ground...its on a 'slant'...but i will do so anyways and try to explain as best i can where i am measuring from...could also measure from the trunk emblem...maybe that will be better/more accurate?

That would work. If it wouldn't be too much trouble, could you take a direct picture and just pinpoint the measurements on there? That would give me an approximation of the points you are measuring from in relation to the trunk edges, the taillight, etc. That will give a good frame of reference.

I greatly appreciate your help. I know there were a couple of others asking for the same thing as well so I'm sure people will find it useful.

Its 14 11/16" from edge of center emblem to the left edge (bottom corner) of the M2 emblem. Here is a shot of the right side. Sorry it was dark already.

Thanks! Very helpful. The measurement and photo give me a good frame of reference. This is what I get for rushing to replace the badge as I had to head to an appointment and not marking the original location.

Now I will have to remove, replace the adhesive on the badge and reattach.

Any sellers in europe? I don't feel like paying IND 100 euros for a black badge.

At least for the reflectors, IND uses OEM parts and paints them. Perfect fit.
