      I am trying to install a new badge on my M3 as the previous owner removed it so I am looking for a template. It looks like there are 2 or 3 different recommendations out there, which one is correct?

              But see this chart is not accurate f you look at the factory badge placement on Estoril 's boot.

                I see now and also that someone posted this chart in the first post . It looks like the B value is incorrect for the coupe and much closer to 19mm or 21mm. The vert might still be correct as it is placed here on the bootlid:
