putting the "32 valve V8" badge back on the coil cover? - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

any thoughts of an adhesive to use for this?

I took my plate off before sending everything to the powder coater, I figured Id just use some of the 3M double sided body tape but it raises it up a little more than Id like.

Im thinking something liquid/gel based that could take the heat would be the best solution, then I can make sure the corners are stuck down well and just wipe off whatever squeezes out from underneath

Does color matter? Rtv silicone is rated for high temps. I would clamp it for 24 hours if it were me...

i think the high temp silicone might be a winner, hadnt even thought of it being able to take the heat but I was just thinking about the clear stuff. Dont wanna use Epoxy incase it ever needs to come off again
