Default How to glue back on

Alright not to sure what forum to post this on but here goes. So Over here in Vegas, police dpt has been pulling hondas over and towing them if vin tag or transmission sticker is missing. hundreds of hondas have been towed and resold at auctions without trannys because the cops have confiscated them. It happened to my brother and I don't want it to happen to me, so my sticker is peeling off and only about 15% of sticker is still sticking. I dont want it to fall off while im driving so I want to take it off and re-stick on tranny. Does anybody have any suggestion on what I should do to stick sticker back on? And is it going to stay on? Thanks

Stop @ walmart or whever and get some epoxy.

Only a few bucks, comes in one tube with 2 sections, when you push it out, they mix and make a super strong glue.

A few dabs will work just fine.

Set something on your tag to hold it in place until it dries.

Volila, problem sovled.

Btw, towing vehicles b/c of a misplaced vin is gay.

One of the 1trillion reasons to never live in CA.

i'd contact the authorities to make sure that when you do get pulled and they see that its glued on there you don't get **** for gluing one on from another transmission

No that's the thing cops can't know, they want to see original sticker so we have to make it look original

after my brainless comment i just thoght of something
trophy shops can make custom stickers that look just like the real thing
so as long as you can still clearly read it they can scan it and make a thin aluminum sticker with the 3m high performance tape on it, it might cost 40$ or so for the first one but thats a lot better than getting your car inpounded

no dopey, tell the cops you're sticker is coming off and that you need to re-glue it, but if you re-glue it you don't want to get in trouble for someone thinking that you have swapped it over from another transmission. and see what they say

i'm pretty sure they won't say "oh well, you're hosed, i'll just give you a ticket now" they're not THAT mean...
