Auto Emblem Glue
 
Hi,
Can anyone recommend an adhesive to stick the plastic boxster logo on the back hood of my car? Something that won't ruin the paint if the emblem ever falls off.
Thanks,
David

3M makes an emblem adhesive that works great. As long as it is on factory paint it will not leave a mark when it's removed.

Auto part store: they make double sided tape specifically for emblems. Works very well, thin but strong. I used it once on the PORSCHE letters individually and AFAIK they are still on 7y later...

Didn't even consider two sided tape. Genius. Thanks.

I think I saw your POR CH once...I usually get the clever license plates, but was stumped that day ;)!

I used the double sided tape. Secure it to the emblem, trim the excess with an exacto knife, peel the backing and stick it on the car.

That is crazy! I used galvanized drill screws

I'm a little surprised the emblem didn't come with double stick tape.

Had trouble sourcing a replacement emblem on mine so I had to re-use it.
