Question for you car buffs, not sure what type of adhesive/glue to use on the logo. The grille and badge are shiny smooth plastic!



Most badges are held on with doubled sided foam tape now days.

Has it got a backing strip which peels off ?

In that case buy a couple of the outdoor type doulble sided foam pads and cut to shape.

I put the china house name plate on the wall with them a few years ago and can't get it off !

think badge would not sit right, got some pics think you'll see what I mean think only adhesive will do.

back of new badge.

it's home, you can also see the marks on the right, where the little persons removed the original badge.

how it should look when affixed

it would sit a little higher and flush with the grille when in place, not sure if it would with a foam sticky back to it?

Dan, If it appeared to be a glue that held the badge on, it was probably 3M Weather Strip Adheasive.
