Default Q. What should I use for attach the Z emblem?

Hi, I just removed the nissan emblem for both front n rear and I tried to attach carbon Z emblem with 3m tape and I did on rear side but failed on front..
There was none of the 3m tape came with the emblem when I got my order so I had to buy it from walmart.. anyways rear emblem fits with 3m tape on the back of the emblem but the front has little space between the tape n the bumper where I supposed to attach the emblem so the emblem just fell off when I tried to attach it.. one of my friend told me to use some kinda like super glue or crazy glue.. any recommendations for the attach a emblem plz? Thanks

use automotive mounting tape... the 3m mounting tape you got at wall mart was probably not strong enough... also make sure to clean the surface before you stick it on

So how hard or easy is it to remove the Nissan emblems? How did you do it?

It's kinda easy to remove nissan emblems many ppl says use the fishing line to remove it. I used the old credit card which expired to remove the emblem just carefully put credit card into nissan emblem tape side and carefully push through whole sticky parts and just take the emblem out took less than 10 mins to do both front & rear. I got none of the paint damaged and go to hand car wash after emblem remove for clean the left over sticky things.

Btw, where can I buy automotive mounting tape? Can I get it from autozone?

You can just get some 3m double sided tape at walmart as op stated. I buy it from there all the time varies reason.
