    For the peeps that removed the badges, painted and reapplied them. Do you have any tips on how you reapplied them in the correct place again?
    Like for the doors, did you just take a measurement for the window down, and the door hinge side back? Or did ya just wing it?

    3M double sided tape works great.

    Here's mine. As I mentioned before, it has some gloss to it.

    I didn't know either. I probably would've bought matte if I had. Good to know people have options.

    I ran painters tape around all the edges before removal as guidelines to put them back on. I did the project over a day and reinstalled the next morning so it was not big deal having blue rectangles all over my rig while it sat in the driveway...but I supposed I missed out on +25HP by not driving it like that. 3M tape from any auto store would be the right tape to stick um back on.
