Default GXP Emblem Placement

I think my car has been painted before because I'm missing all of my emblems from the exterior except the GXP on the front doors. I've found most of them on line but what I need help with is placement. Any one got the measurements for the emblem placements on the trunk lid and for the GM chiclets on the front fenders. Also, on the tabs, I've found both 1" and 1.25" on line. Which ones are correct for our cars?
I know it is a pretty minor detail but my OCD kicks in when it comes to this stuff. I hate to see cars where the emblems just don't quite seen to sit right.

Thanks

i can tell you now you won't find exact measurements from stock. Most ppl on this board are inactive / modded / and have removed or moved badges. I would just place them as you like lol

The two trunk emblems and the GM fender chiclets. Plus let me know if the chiclets are 1" or 1.25" please.
Thanks.

Thanks, I was thinking about adding some 5.3 call outs too. The GXP emblems have sort of a stainless looking finish. Are the letters that way too or are they bright chrome?

The letters match the emblems, not sure if I would consider that stainless really but they are the same .
