Yeah, I was hoping that someone would know the exact measurements..but I guess I will have to go by an old pic. I took before debadging.

no one could give you an accurate guage...i'd say find a car in a pakring lot and measure...i'd measure from the end of the trunk and the crease in the trunk..it should get you pretty close

If anyone has the helm's manual it should have diagrams which show the exact measurements of where the emblem should go.

Yeah, I started not to like the debadged look either so I put the A C U R A letters back on. I didnt put the 3.2 TL Letters back on or the TYPE S but I think I wanna put the TYPE S emblems on the side of the car by the wheel well kind of like the 'M' Badge on the BMW's.

Yeah I did that with 2 Type-S badges and it looks pretty sweet... If you wanna see pics just click on my sig, or I can take specific pics if you need.
