so i debadged the cooper s from the back of my car, and i'm thinking about paying homage to my last car by putting the A4 from it where the cooper s was... sounds strange, i know, but i figure i'll have fun confusing silly people, and besides, it's a nice badge...
but anyway, the question is, what kind of adhesive should i use? i was thinking silicone glue, but i'm not sure? something that'll be removeable without too much fuss, naturally.

thanks guys.
christina.

3M makes some sort of sticky something or other. A tape product. Cooper S comes with that tape holding it in place to begin with.

I always use the 3M mounting tape for trims when I install body kits and
little ornaments on the car. can be had at autoparts stores and Walmart.

It's been said before, but the 3M auto moulding tape is the only way to go as most manufacturers use it as well. You can tell it apart from the regular double-faced products as it has a red backing.
