Finally got around to doing this myself, I think it looks cleaner if you weld up the holes and have just the big emblem in the middle.

The tape that comes on the emblem. Just cut the little alignment pins off with a dremel and use some painters tape and a tape measure.

I like it, but I would never get it centered and level if I tried.

Yeah you did, I don't think I ever got a pic of mine. Its not bad at all, just go to the dealer and get some measurements and then do the same thing on yours and tape it all off. Took my 30 minutes and its perfect.
