Just ordered a set, curious as to what reference or method of measurement people are using for alignment/placement? (sorry if this was answered)

I used blue painter's tape to keep it even on the bottom by the trim and the back at the crease at the door...just make sure you place it LIGHTLY, the adhesive is strong, so adjustments will be very difficult if you press too hard initially!

On a lighter note, I am so glad to see the excitement of your reactions to these badges. I've always wanted to give back to the community in some shape or form and this entire process has really put a smile in my face. Just thought I'd share.

Damn dude! You left us?? I guess I'm out of the loop. What are you driving lately?

And umm, when I asked what you had on your car I thought you still had a 32, and was asking what you had on it in terms of badging.

Believe me, I never left. Circumstance just forced my hand. I am driving an 97' SC300, and I'm enjoying it.

In terms of badges, I had the 3.2 AMG badge on my 32 as well. I loved my C32, ask moosejaw.

I think I used 2 stacked pieces of 2" above the trim and 1 1" at the door edge. It looked perfect there to me and if it's lower you will be on the curve of the wheel arches.

Mars red.

Ok here's a couple of low res mobile phone pictures I just took. Mine are a little higher up, I like them more that way.
