I got some 3M double sided from the automotive aisle at Meijer. If you've never heard of Meijer, it's like SuperTarget. It is strong stuff.

ok, so that solves that, do they sell double sided tape in sheets, or just rolls? and what would be a good way to get them straight, i definatly dont want to just eyeball them.

auto store should have some 3m double sided tape (rolls), stick it on emblems and then use a razor to trim then pull plastic off so it will stick and put it on

use masking tape and put a straight line off it on your body, and put your emblems just above the tape
