If you took that blue tape and went back out to your car, taped off all around the letters etc all the way to each edge and down to the edge of trunk, pulled that off, stick it on stiff type of construction board, traced and cut, you could have the perfect template to sell. I'd buy one!

If a few people are interested, I can trace it out and send you all paper templates. PM me if you want one  Is $15 fair?

Look in your medicine cabinet and garage...
Dental floss saws emblems off realy nicely, and WD40 removes adhesive residue with no ill effects to the paintwork.
I'd be in for a template too...

I also like the look. I might just create the template. I would need to get a good image of all the letters, retrace them in Illustrator for an outline. This way you can have different templates with different spacing's.
