Just finished my custom badge.
Took apart the old grille and kept the surround, vinyled the surround and fitted it with coated mesh.
New Badge...break off alignment pins.....
Cut out a metal backing plate (coated), bored two holes, then stretched the metal to allow screw head shape to sit flush.
Then (T-88) epoxy the backing plate to the badge as well as the screw heads and cured for 24hrs
Wing nuts, washers and attached to the mesh.
Now its secure and no one can steal it
- not everyone's cup of tea, but something different.

Friend of mine tints windows. I have watched him remove it a few times.. He hits it with a heat gun(or steamer), and pulls the tint off, then hits the gluey residue with a soapy water mixture(same mixture they use to apply tint), and uses a razor to get it clean. Some times he will also use a scotchbrite pad as well to get anything residual off.
