Sticking on badges

I received some great 3.0si badges from cossie Si and was wondering what people thought was the best way to stick them on. The closest thing I could find to the stuff that's on the back is Harris number plate tape. I've stuck it to one set of badges and trimmed it to fit but I'm sceptical of its strength. Would just glueing work or is that going to be a nightmare with the paint?

Any help would be great

Don't glue :o
I used a very thin double-sided tape from Halfords, but the number plate tape will be more than strong enough (I just found it a little too thick).
 
while your at it stick an ///M badge on there ,people love them on here :rofl:

But on a more serious note i would avoid glue i think it would ruin the paint ,better to use a think double sided tape
 
il try this number plate tape. like you said marlon its a bit thick. im worried the foam will get wet. hahaha no M badge from me dont worry about that. i do have a 3.0si so its not like im blatantly lying haha
 
I used this, its much thinner so the badge sits flusher to the bodywork:

Ive decided against this number plate tape. It's not really stuck to the badges strongly so I don't trust it at all. Il try that 3m stuff thanks markeg. Can't spend anothe £6 on a halfords product after this Harris stuff was £7 sorry marlon haha. Cheers for the help guys. Il let you know how it's gone when this stuff gets here.

That 3M tape looks like it will do the job just fine :thumbsup:
