Haven't had time to post any pics but they do look very nice! Here are some install tips.
1. Before you remove the old GT emblem take some blue painters tape and place a strip above the old emblem about 1/8" from the top and a second one about 1/8" from the side to use as reference later.
2. Fishing string tied onto two small wrenches works well for removing the old emblem. Use a sawing motion and it goes real quick.
3. After you remove the old emblem and clean all the gunk off I used some rubbing alcohol to do a final clean of the surface.
4. Now test fit the new emblem and make sure it looks right according to the reference marks you made erlier with the blue tape.
5. peel the backing paper off of the new emblem and carefully stick them into place.
Now go enjoy!
This is how I did mine it worked well for me. Someone else may have a better idea???

I don't know about using a level. Unless the car itself is absolutely level you might be disappointed. Try to measure if possible to make sure it's parallel with the body lines.

I don't think it will matter if you use a level before removing the GT badges and after while installing the new ones.

It would be easier to simply stick a piece of tape over the GT badge as mentioned earlier. If the GT badge is already level when you start then you're golden. If not, you'll spend some time getting it level for sure.
