Default Keeping emblems / badges on...

My thread search returns a lot of "How-to Remove" the front/rear emblems. I want to keep mine on, but my front wants to peel off. The outer edges of the flags are peeling and rolling up. What can I use to re-attach that? I have a 2003 with 50th badges, and the center 50th Anniversary is separate and is not peeling up... could be a mess if I do not do something quick.

My friend has an Anny car, and this has happened to him 3 times.....he just took it to the stealership and had them replaced.

Good Luck,
Mark

If you are talking about the insert in the emblem, then maybe some epoxy glue would work. Or, just replace the entire emblem with a new one.

Best thing is to replace the entire emblem. Once one starts to come appart replacement is the sure long term fix.

Does this qualify as warranty work? I like that idea!
