Welcome back Amar.

Hmmmmm my S8 badge is a little misaligned.....
73mm, 40mm, 5mm seem to be the critical measurements.
(Photo to follow)
So that's 73mm from the bottom left corner of the badge to the edge of the boot lid.
And 40mm to the edge above the rear light (NOT to the light itself, there's a seal between)
And just 5mm between the two sections.

I suggest others take the same measurements…………..

Or are you trying to acquire the original PF version of the badge? (My old PF had those until it was stolen and accident damaged, the repairers binned them and fitted the newer type)
