Suffolkz Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Hello fellow z'ers, While washing the car the other day, my microfiber drying cloth caught underneath the 350z badge on the rear, and snapped a small section of the 'z' off meaning it now looks more like 3507 than 350z. After a few seconds of panic, I found the piece on the driveway, and it will fit back on as the break was clean ... but I need to know: What sort of glue should I use, and do I need to scrape off the existing glue that is still on the car (the piece that snapped off has no glue on it). Cheers, Suffolkz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay84 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) This happened with mine. Its almost easier to get new badges IMO, its come off once and will be weaker than it was and you'll struggle to line it up without a line. That being said, 3M sticky pads cut down will do the trick.

Olly350z Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Dont use glue! I beg you! Thats what the previous owner did on mine and when I removed it I had the 350z outline frozen to my paintwork! The only way to get rid of it was a respray! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
