Putting on new Trunk Badges
The amount of concentration and focus that went into this simple task was quite exhausting. Lots of trigonometry involved. I decided on a 1 degree elevation angle for the badges.
Vertical distance from trunk to badge 1.5"
Horizontal distance from trunk edge to badge 1.5"
Length of both badges 8"
Letter gapping is 0.4" for CLK and 55, with a 1" gap between the two.
Letter gapping for AMG 0.3"
If you follow these measurements, you will nail both at exactly 8"
