I did the same thing, but I bought 6, and ended up with 12!
Just as well, since I toasted 2 before getting the side badges right.
I cut twice and measured once. I think it's the other way round.

Sorry I don't have pics.
Clean all badges with alcohol first
Do the rear first. It's dead simple. The stripes are longer than they need to be so you can hold the ends and lay them over the existing sticker.
Run a tooth pick across the top and bottom to push the ends down into the detent in the badge and then run a brand new Exacto(tm) along the top and bottom to cut off the excess.

To do the sides, trim 0.06" off the width of the dark blue strip while it's still on the backing.
Peel and stick it over the existing dark blue middle stripe.
Then, without cutting first, peel and stick the other 2 against the sides of the middle one.
Run the toothpick all the way round all 4 sides.
Trim around all 4 sides.

Buy extras so you can take a Mulligan.
