Default Corvette emblem

Has anyone ever tried using their front nose emblem over again once it has been removed? I realize the original tape is shot and wondering if anyone has reapplied new tape? If so what type and where did you purchase it? Thanks in advance!

Apparently Wal-mart sells 3M emblem tape... or E-bay has emblems for $25. Cutting the tape to fit the emblem is a pain in the rear, I recommend a new emblem.

Probably best to just get a new emblem. However, if you want to try, 3M tape would be best if it comes in a black color.

I've been told the front emblem two line-up pins, that's why it has a diff. part no. FYI.
