Rear emblems
Hi all, I am thinking of putting back my 'ACURA' and '3.2CL TypeS' emblems back on. Since I still have the emblems, is it possible to re use them by using some kind of double sided sticker and cut them out perfectly? or would I have to re buy the emblems which costs about $90 according to the delray website.
any help to putting this back on and saving money would be awesome, thanks!

Autozone has some killer double side tape. Its made for sticking ground FX and the like to car bodies. Just follow the directions on cleaning the area you are applying it to.

The only issue I see if the 3M tape is pretty thick compared to the OEM stuff. But try it out, if you dont like it, just use a heat gun to pull them off again.

This is the stuff that is used OEM if I recall correctly: 3M(TM) Nameplate Repair Tape 06385
I used it to stick the A back after a respray. It's quite thin.

If you want, I can send you a couple strips enough for the 3.2CL emblem. I only used a little and it looks like I won't be using anymore in the near future.

You may do this already...
I had my 3.2CL emblem pop off a few months ago while washing my car...
I felt like I might as well be driving around with a different color door LOL. But, this one guy in the service department at the Acura dealership here, stuck it back on and checked the others for any adhesion loss for free.
That was really nice, BUT there still is silicone glue smeared around them all that won't come off! Even though they are stuck on with 10 tons of silicone, I always check the rear my car if I go through a car wash to make sure they're all there!
Hopefully the tape works well for you! And always check the rear to be certain that one didn't pop off...
