morning strider . the oval badge came of the back when i replaced it with new you have just to clean area up very good i use ipa cleaner . the v8 badge was just a bit smaller than the one on the cover so i had to remove the extra with a shanley it was the v only the 8 sat over the top okay . the supercharged is on a piece of alloy flat bar about 5mm thick and then cover it with carbon tape so the letters would stick better . i used black tiger seal or pu sealer to stick with double sided tape i put 10mm tape around outside edge of flat bar and them tiger seal right in the middle for a belt and braces job stuck down left over night with a little wait . just make sure that you clean the area only wear the badges are going to sit as the ipa takes or removes all the oil crap ect and can bleach the cover so mask up long job but i think it just lifts it when you open that bonnet bin on now for all but 12 month . when you come back next morning just go over with a heat lamp blower this will make the tape stick so much better double sided tape that is . i got the letters all separate then stuck them on one at a time peel back the cover paper and just put the letter on the edge of a stanley blade tip so you can fix them a little better or place them wear you need them to go just keep everything clean and wipe clean every thing will stick so much better . you did ask sorry for the sa new vehicle purchase
