I thought you just de-badged it not to long ago? yea you could use super glue, but if you want to take it off again, you'll probably mess up the paint. I say just get new ones.

Pick up a roll of 3M foam double-sided tape from the hardware store. I use the red-backed heavy-duty stuff and it works great.

hobby shops have the grey or black double sidded 3M stuff that is really thin and doesn't stickout like the hardware store kind.

+1 for the 3M sticky tape. Big No No for krazy glue.

You sound just like me. How about Velcro? For the next time you change your mind. LOL.

Get some Goo Gone to remove what's left of the old adhesive. Use black foam double sided tape, DO NOT use krazy glue or even the liquid 3M emblem adhesive, foam tape only. Or you can just buy new one’s, probably a lot easier. Alignment is going to be a bitch.

I am not sure myself people don't know what kind of car is it. A few people thought it was a A4 and some guy at the gas station even asked if this "was a new Audi model" lol. But I think the tail is to empty now.

So if I order the emblem off audigenuine parts does it come with the adhesive on the back?
