I would get the 3M Attachment Tape and cut it to fit the badge

thats funny- you know how many of us removed that badge - disguise the car and make it unique for you to spot in a full parking lot

my "3.2 TL" badge moved around a bit whenever i washed my car.. i finally figured i would just take it off and make it look cleaner.. after seeing what looked like adhesive residue, i realized that it was indeed where it evidently ate away at the clear coat a bit.. so its not raised, theres actually a groove in the shape of the badge.. so now im trying to figure if im gonna just get another stock badge or find some sorta custom shit from another car..
