I'm planning on removing the "IMPALA LT" off the trunk of my car, and I wanted to relocate it to the driver side door..


I haven't been able to find a product simular (or the exact product) that the factories use to put the original badges on the cars. :gaah:

I'm aware that 3M makes an automotive epoxy (carried at my local Autozone) but I don't want this relocation to be a permanent thing.

Does anyone know what the product factories use is called / where I can find it? or if theres a better product out there to use?

3M double-sided tape. It comes in a roll that you cut accordingly. It is what GM and most all auotmakers use. It's like $20 for the big roll at Autozone.

Is there one specific for automotive use?

The only one I've seen around is the white double sided mounting tape, and that stuff doesn't hold up once it gets wet. (Currently holding on half of one of my weather guards, changing the tape every other week)

Yeah, the rolls at Autozone or Advance Auto. They're a black tape with red backing.

I ended up going with the 3M "badge and emblem" epoxy.. I decided, while standing there looking at them both, that I didn't feel like cutting the tape to fit around the lettering.

I'll take a picture tomorrow morning of the results.
