They ARE cheap but a pain to keep putting back on.

I don't know anyway to help them stay put other than proper install and being careful when washing and drying.

So, just buy a new one and reinstall? I can live with that.

Yup! There are a few threads around about the best way to do this. I think Randall's got it down pat. Something about dental floss...

I'll be doing the same thing shortly since I now apparently own an "oxster".

yeah, Dental floss is the ticket, removed and replaced my "Carrera" badge with that.

This is why I decided to go with the 986S Badge on my trunk. Kind of steep at $80 from Bumperplugs.com but I like the minimal more Porsche traditional serial number thing

I like the serial number thing also but.. the S looks funky on there.. not Symmetrical. No offense sir.

Oh-Oh. Now you've done it. We're going to have to over the whole symmetrical "S" thing. PLUS you called him SIR!

Crap, there go all the good detailing tips.

Nice job MARC!

I like that 986S badge, first time I have seen it. Very very nice!

BTW-I have found that wd40 left on the glue will dissolve nicely. A lot less messy and more effective than goo gone in my experience.

Make that $99 at bumperplugs!
