Default Rear bumper emblem

Is this guy held on with glue, or does it have 'studs'? 89 Coupe.

Thanks ahead of time!

My 92 had double sided tape and two nuts under the fuel door. Once I removed the nuts, I used a hair dryer to soften up the tape.

I just realized that your refering to the Corvette emblem on the bumper and not the gas door emblem. Disreguard my previous post. :o

The ZR1 was the only car to come from the factory with those emblems.
All the others are aftermarket.

There were holes in the hood and bumper on the ZR-1's that had them stock.

I thought the "CORVETTE" lettering had pegs too, though? I could be wrong. It's certainly easier to install ones with pegs as you don't have to worry about it being crooked.
