Emblem came off
I had my Diesel emblem come off the front of my 1990 F-350 tuck. But the good news is that I did find it. Has anyone had this happen? Whats a good method to get it back on so it wont come off again. I'm thinking epoxy. Will this work?

i got two words for you=1. duct, 2. tape, or bailing wire, how bout some super glue, hell try some bubble gum
a two part epoxy should work just fine, i forget but theres actually a special epoxy that is designed for it

Yeah it’s too bad that after almost 20 years it finally fell off. Epoxy wont last half as long. Think about it the tape is made to withstand all the shuddering, bouncing, and shaking of the truck, epoxy will harden very stiff and will come off after enough vibration or if someone bumps the panel wrong. I used the tape on my Lincoln and after 4 years its still not going anywhere.

or you could go with what i origanally said and just use some duct tape-trust me it will make your truck stand out and be one of a kind-j/k

might as well go with the duct tape, we got a few trucks around here with duct tape fender patches, so youd fit right in.

Regular two side sticky tape from the craft or hardware store would probably work but it is thicker than the OEM stuff and is white instead of gray. Do not know how much the OEM stuff cost, chances are your local "Custom Parts" shop will have something that will work good to. Epoxy may not do to well due to large temperature variation (dissimilar coefficients of expansions) it will crack.
