I bought some adhesive from Autozone that's for emblems and exterior accent pieces. Don't remember what it's called. Will get back with you on that one.

Must be a way to do it without having to take them off, its a PITA to remove and then try cutting double sided tape to the shape of the emblem to reapply.

Im sure you could leave them on the car but you'd have to mak sure you masked everything off really well to prevent over spray

I'm sure you're right... but the threat of overspray and the PITA of cleaning that up would far outweigh the necessity of cutting tape when it is done. JMHO - YMMV.
