Replacing front emblem

[Marco07]

I did mine a year or so ago...it sounds a little scary but I used a Stanley knife to cut the badge logo as underneath that is the nut holding it in place which you can then undo.

I then stuck my new one on using the sticky back, it’s never moved since.

Same here. Not too scary.

Hardest part about the front grill is getting the gasket seal back on, a right pain especially in the corners.

Exactly, I was more than a little committed once I’d started but knew the bolt was under there!

There’s no way to scratch the paintwork underneath since you’re not cutting through the underside of the badge.

I did have to ‘trim’ the plastic of the badge around the top of the bolt as you can see in the pic to give access to the ratchet but it worked well enough...

Yes, the nut dropped through and revealed the sticky residue left from the original badge

Ahhh thanks so much @Bladerunner - this is so helpful! Did the nut stay in the bumper when it fell? Or does it actually fall to the floor? I'm going to try this myself now... Thank you!

No problem, trial and error for the greater good!

It was a good while ago so don’t remember if the nut fell through or stayed within the bumper housing but either way certainly never an issue since.
