Putting badges back on

Hi
When I bought the car it was debadged. I’m going to put them back in this weekend but is it best to use adhesive tape or glue?
Cheers

I've messed around with badges over the years - re-positioning etc. When re-applying never use glue - I use double sided tape and cut it to fit the badges:

Be careful to put them on right way around or you'll end up with a BMW W. :rofl:

Cheers, the previous owner took them off so will use the tape to re attach. Funny enough was thinking of putting an m badge on lol

Yeah, it's a very popular mod on here. Be sure to take some photos when you're done so people can post how impressed they are :rofl:

There is a errant badge - sort of, if you want to look at it that way.
I have a badge problem admittedly, I used to fight it but I've come to accept it :oops:
