Tuned by STI

I was wondering if someone with an 08 Tuned by STI would be able to measure the badge in relation to the trunk/boot lid. I am having one shipped to me here in the states next week and I want the placement to be as accurate as possible.

Here is the badge I am buying in case I have placed it with the wrong model year.

The measurements I am looking for are pretty standard.
1.) Distance from the bottom of the STI portion to the base boot lid crease above the bumper
2.) Distance from the LEFT side of the 'tuned by' badge to the left nearest boot crease.
3.) Distance from the top of the STI to the crease just above that runs along the tail lamp.

I would also be grateful with someone just going out and holding up a ruler or tape measure and snapping some pics in a few locations around the badge.

Many thanks to anyone for their help...

Are you buying it second hand or aftermarket? Because the genuine factory one comes with a template that helps you guide it into position.

Buying it from an Aussie Subaru dealer. I know they typically come in the blue foam for alignment, but was unaware that they also came with the need measurements for placement? I should be getting it before too long (1 week+) so I will see if that is the case
