when you drill be careful. do one hole first then place the emblem in and position it to where the placement looks correct then mark the area where the pin would go into (if the hole was there) with a pen. that will be the next hole to drill. useing a template can cause problems. the radious of the hood can throw it off a little. I did the deck lid this way and it looks great. putting the emblem in helps to keep you from having it look off.
