Size of the Bmw emblem

Please, could some of you X6 owners measure the sizes of the Bmw emblems in the hood and in the drunk, thank you!!!
I m about to order some real black carbon look emblems for my white X6 (its in the middle of Atlantic)... so cant measure it myself.

Did you end up replacing front and rear? I cannot figure out how the pop off the rear emblem? The front was easy. Just slipped a credit card under the edge and pryed off with screwdriver but I cannot get a screwdriver or credit under the edge of the rear emblem.

Try floss or the plastic used for packaging boxes...

Can't fit floss in there. Not sure if you have ever seen the rear X6 emblem. It is recessed in the round casing around the emblem and makes it very difficult to access.

I believe all hood & truck emblems are assembled the same. I've heard of some using floss...the plastic packaging ties worked for me

This is not correct. I took my X6 by the dealer and they confirmed that the emblem is all one piece on the X6 and you cannot simply pop off the center roundel like you can on the hood. See the picture I attached. You have to replace the whole piece.
