Default 98 SC400 Emblems template

All,
I had the body shop repainted my 98 SC400. I told them that I want to put the emblems back on the car myself. I wanted to wait for the paint totally cured (1 month) before I place the emblems back on to the car.

I searched here and google but I couldn't find the template for the emblems. I want to place back them correctly on the car.

Would you please help me to find the template or measure exactly where they should go on the back and front of the car?

Thank you,
Tyler

This is the layout of the 98-00. Earlier models had the SC400 badge between the tails

^^^^ Thank you so much for the reply. Hey my twin. I need the "coordination" of the "SC 400". The "SC 400" doesn't have holes. Other emblems have holes so I think that I am good to mount them correctly.

My 97 has the "SC400" on the far right as well. If it were me getting painted I would ONLY put the middle "L" back on and leave the redundancies off.

POGOISM9, what re the offsets man? Those are a perfect fit!

That's what I'm thinking to do with my SC to keep it only the L rear and L Front.



Not mine, but photoshopped it.

I was expecting to like it more than that. The butt looks sort of droopy with just the L logo. I think there's too much space above the tail lights without the regular emblems. Maybe lighter paint colors would make it less of an issue? A spoiler-less car would probably work better, too.

The trunk lid has holes for "LEXUS". You need to fill the holes and paint the the trunk.

Can someone help me on this information please? For the "SC 400", what is the distance from the "0" the the right edge of the trunk lid? What is the distance between the "C" and the "4"?

Thank you,
Tyler
