Default Tips for installing emblems?

I am in a jam. I have been getting body work done the past few months. I need to put my emblems back on tonight because I'm going to an event tommorrow morning.

Can you guys give me some tips for cutting the double sided tape? I have double sided tape and all the emblems. The surface area is so tiny on the back !

I was thinking but the tape on the back and put the emblems on a surface. Then cut with an exacto knife from the front?

Help would be greatly appreciated!

trace the emblem on the tape pieces......then cut the tape out on the "inside" of the tracing.....then stick the tape to the emblems.

clean with alcohol before applying

lol

So I asked about emblems and installing the sides. I have not done it on this car before so before screwing it up I like to ask the experts. Last time I checked, asking for help on some items is not being an attention w h o r e. Experience is important. Of course you prefer to dive in and blow up lots of motors but thats your call.

Your SC is the biggest pile of crap ever. I'd never be caught dead driving your SC but I've done a lot of nice mods on mine that I feel set mine waaaaay apart from yours.

I'd love to hear all the mods you were the FIRST to do, how you pioneered the SC communitly blah blah that you claim all over the place.

Calling me out? I have no idea what you want some kind of DRIFT challenge?1??

I'll stay on the porch when you bake me a pie.

So In other words you feed off of other people? you cant even install an EMBLEM?!?!? WTF is an expert emblem installer that you're in search of?? whats the difference in car emblems? are you freakin kidddin me?!?! yet you're one of the first to criticize someones car here.

I dive in and am willing to push the limits for people like you who have no idea what to do or what can be done to their cars. I dont care if I blow up an engine. Its a bigger deal to you than it is to me....

Im not even gonna compare our cars (Any of them) because its not sumthing I wanna get into with you. I havent touched my car in YEARS... This is not a fight you want .

I'll give you this advice: know when to act a fool and who to act a fool with....

In other words.....keep your puppy *** car on the porch and sidelines where it belongs.

You dont have the talent or vision to build a better car then me


Im not gonna argue with you about this. If you want to step up, feel free to make a thread and compare our cars and contributions to the SC community....or leave me alone.

Ive said my piece and let it be known that im up for the challenge when it comes to modding the SC4's. It shouldnt be that way, but we can handle it anyway that you want.

You will have last word in this thread...because its your thread. Im OK with that because I've said what had to be said.

best of luck with your emblem placement and future 'plans'.

Happy modding!

ahhh Emerald you get my blood boiling! Your attitude is was gets under my skin.

I feel that I've had a lot of vision in planning this ride. I won't be keeping my "puppy *** car on the sidelines" like yours.
Mine gets driven daily.

There is no point in making a comparison thread here. You have too many followers and friends here that it would biased. I like what I've put together.

here is my pos that is going back in for paint because the kit doesn't match so you can see what I have anyway.
Maybe I'll see ya at an import show in the northwest. until then.
