Yeah it does. That's why it has a coat of duraglass on there first. And the shop gives 7 year warranty on their work. So I am good

maybe i dont know how to use 3M doublesided tape properly but its pretty hard to do that b.c the back of the emblem has those weird gaps that the tape doesnt stick to well

I know what you mean .. is tricky, you need to cut the 3m tape wide enough to touch both side edge
