Badge Installation and photos
Quick Installation Instructions
1. The assembly area must be free of airborne dust, oils, etc.
2. Bonding surface must be free of all contaminants (dust, oils, wax, silicones, etc.) If wiping of the bonding surface is required to remove any contaminates, isopropanol/water (minimum 50% isopropanol) is recommended.
3. The temperature of the part and the bonding surface should be above 70 degrees F.
4. Remove the release liner from the S Badge emblem and apply the adhesive side to the clean, dry surface in a rolling manner to prevent air entrapment. Be careful not to contaminate the adhesive on the back of the emblem.
5. The assembly should remain about 70 degrees F for 72 to 96 hours before exposure to the outside.
Installation Details
List of needed supplies for installation:
1) Xenit Adhesive remover from Stoner, www.moreshine.com,
Or 3M Adhesive Remover available from your local auto store
2) Waxed dental floss
3) General purpose masking tape
4) Soft cotton detailing towel
5) Alcohol and cotton balls or alcohol swabs
6) Optional: aftermarket finishing/detailing spray, we use Zaino

Here are the plastic mounting sockets from the trunk lid.
Clean the area with adhesive remover and alcohol to remove all traces of the original emblem

Too late James, they came this afternoon and already installed. The are classy, mysteries, sporty, clean, and almost 3-D looking. Pictures do not do justice. Great job guys.

James- would the removal of the new badges be the same as the H badges, if i change my mind about the colors? just spray them with wd-40 and floss them off?? congratulations on another great product for our cars!!
