I got my STi and WRX badges today in the mail. What should I use to stick them to the car. Does advance auto or autozone sell a thin double sided tape for this? –mark ---

Type RRRRR I’ll try the 3m stuff first, it seems easy enough to trim to fit behind the badge. –mark ---

3M grey tape with the red backer is what the shops use. Clean the badge and car really good with alcohol; then apply the tape to the badge trim; then heat with a blowdryer until the red backer starts pealing off then apply it. This is the process my brother uses at his shop for side mouldings and everything else stuck on with that tape. ---

If you bought them new they’re basically fat stickers. Peel the backer and stick them. ---
