I'm more of a mechanic than a body guy, but here's my guess:

Measure up from the bottom of the door, in about 3 different locations, and put a piece of tape on there. That should get your emblem straight.

I tried to be as exact as that when putting the "Ram Air" stickers on my fake WS6 hood but I still got it wrong, lol...

Yea Im the same.. Im more of a mechanic than a body guy but i can do body work to a certain extent.. I just dont want to screw it up...

I bought ones just like this with backing on them..

Once you remove the backing the letters come off individually and it would be a PITA to get them all on straight and with correct spacing.. So i was thinking layer tape over the top of them and then remove the backing so the tape on top holds them down and then install them.. That should work right?
