sorry for the late response, i've been looking but i think i threw them away 
. nice diagram simonlam168, my spacing looks very much like yours. i'd imagine those are the right dimensions, and they definitely look right. as one note, however, when you install them Aero, the driver's side at first might appear to be slightly crooked at certain angles even if you use a level to make sure it's straight. this is an illusion caused by the silver side-lining pointing down, and reading from left to right, the badge's "V6" is larger than the "kompressor" symbols so it appears this way. the passenger's side however looks better because the "V6 Kompressor" starts with the V6 and reads left-to-right so the strip's curvature doesn't create as much as an illusion. hope that made sense.
in case you're looking for ideas, the way that worked for me was to first to take a piece of paper over the badge (still packaged) and use a pencil to shade an impression of the symbol. then i used that as a template for the spacing, just in case one of the symbols on the adhesive, taping it on one side and flipping it to make sure the spacing looked right. good luck with the install, the badge makes a very nice visual difference, believe me. especially if your car is a dark color, the badge really looks awesome.
