Brian P Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 3m has a double sided *clear* tape which works damn well, maybe too well. And the emblems will look more flush to the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJB Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 You can also try 3M emblem adhesive. Its like a glue. You need to be really careful though and dont use it on fresh paint. Truthfully, youre better off buying new emblems from a dealer. Theyre usually around $10 and they come with a backing already on them.

My friend just bought an emblem for his Ciera's grille and it was $11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSayDie Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 They used some sort of epoxy when I had my car paninted. I don't know if there was anything special about it or if it was plain jane stuff. It's been holding up fine though (4 years) The only way I could tell it was there is the guys let the tiniest amount dry inside one of the letters, and it dried brown.

JS91Z34 Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 I bought some of that window adhesive made by 3M for the side emblems on my SHO and it looked like the same stuff that was already on the back of the emblems in the first place. If you don't want it to come off again, I would use that. You can glue a bowling ball to the side of the car and never worry of it coming off!

luminator94 Posted April 8, 2003 Report Share Posted April 8, 2003 I know my '94 front emblem is held on with a self threading nut. Yeah, the same on my '97. Pretty damn cheap for what you pay. The easiest way I found to put it on was by taking those 2 bolts off the top part of the fascia and pulling back like a mutha fuka without breaking anything and put the cheap-ass emblem on.
