I purchased an unbelievably clean '07 CL600 on November 5th. Based on all the documentation that came with the car it is a Brabus specimen - tune - exhaust - suspension etc.
Anyway, it currently sports the Brabus badging on the left rear of the trunk lid, I guess the CL600 gets removed in the process. I would like to return the CL600 emblem to it's correct position on the left rear and relocate the Brabus badging to the right rear.
The question is - does anyone have, or can point me to the character spacing dimensions for the CL600 badging. If I'm going to return it to it's proper look, I would like to do it right. I have EPC, WIS and ASRA and couldn't find it in any of those.
All help, suggestions and pointers, happily accepted.

Dealer is not my favorite place on the planet. With the time it takes them to research the spacing, getting ready to install, installing, then reinstalling because they got it wrong, at $135 an hour, they can probably blow 4 hours, which is more than I want to pay them.
The really depressing part is, with old BMW's, people have been piecing those cars together for so long, that someone, somewhere on Bimmerforums has the official install spacing from BMW.
So, as a last resort, was thinking about grabbing a good pic of the butt end of a CL600 and pulling dimensions based on relative spacing of the characters to each other and the trunk lid i.e. half a "C" or 1/4 of an "L", then measure the real letters/numbers (which I have) for inch/mm dimensions.
Alternate ideas are welcome, but I'm going to try that.
