poxy
unless you plan on getting a paint job in the next 10 years ide use 2 part poxy. brush it on the back of the emblem so you dont get drips, and make sure you get it in the right spot on the first try.

fyi
if you got the honda h logo in chrome and red the red is gonna turn an ungly pink in about a month or 2, something to consider because its gonna happen with the red logos

Only if you got it off eBay...

the OEM ones don't do that.

2 part epoxy for emblems?!?? that seems a little overkill... that **** can hold like 800lbs. most of them come w/double sided tape on the back... i'd think that'd be fine unless you are for some reason going to tow a trailer hooked up to your emblems

I work at a body shop and nvr have i seen a badge stuck on with anything other than double sided tape. Poxy? To stick on a badge? Maybe if you nvr want it off again and if you do you can kiss your paint good bye. Get some 3m tape and clean the paint and badge real good gaurenteed nvr to fall off.

I know someone that did that too because of theft.
The next time they fucked his hood and trunk trying to get them off.
He used velcro for then on.

double sided tape is good enough. even if they do steal it you can always go to your local junk yard and find some for free.
