Front Hood Emblem

Hey I just got a front hood emblem for my Camaro through Hawks, do I need to add some type of glue before I put it on? Otherwise it just sets there with the two pegs and flops around. Any ideas?

you could always use a 2 part epoxy mix...like "JB Weld" or something like that.

Originally, the emblems have studs that stick through the front nose. Then from behind, salf tapping nutts are twisted on to hold the emblem to the nose.

I use the 3M double sided tape, has the red plastic pull off. Really tough stuff. Get at Walmart, Autozone or other parts places. Don't use the white foam type stuff, won't hold it long from what I've seen.
