Front badge popped off

Those posts will never solidly reattach without proper brazing, and as said, that would destroy the finish and enamel. I would just forego the posts and use a moderate adhesive to stick it to the hood. Permatex Black Silicone Adhesive Sealant would be perfect (great bond without being permanent or damaging the paint).

That's awesome, thank you, I'll stick the pins on with epoxy and stick the badge on with permatex !

Pm replied, I'm currently about 1,200 miles from home and will ship it when I get back.


Usually better to replace with the right part than make a mess trying to rig it.

I'm with particlewave on this one - if it were me I'd use Permatex Black Silicone Adhesive Sealant - the stuff works great, handles heat and vibration. I'm currently using it to hold my passenger headlight corner piece in...

But if you can get an inexpensive used replacement, that might be a good move too...

Double sided 3m emblem tape or adhesive would be a good solution as well. I've used it and it sticks with amazing tenacity.
