Default Honda Badge wont stick?

Hey guys,

Recently just bought a red honda badge for the front of my S2K, I put a new one on the back awhile back and didn't have any dramas with it, however this one doesns't seem to be sticking very well?

Here is what it looks like..



I can push the front part down, and it sticks for awhile, but then it justs comes unstuck again..



Does anyone have any tips for dealing with this?

If its a knock off badge. Yea.

Unless you paid waaay more than a little piece of plastic should cost, it's prob not oem.

I would go to autozone and pick up some of the red 3m double sided tape.

Apply it to the back of the emblem and run it under a blow dryer to get it really tacky and slap on te bumper after you've cleaned with alcohol.

That should do the trick

Hey guys,

Did as suggested, put some high quality double sided tape on and chucked it on. Seems to be holding well, thanks for the advice.
