seen loads of cars with it done.

But I'm not convinced that the one i brought from torque-steer will quite literately be a "peel off and apply and stay stuck badge"

Anyone have any advise or am I worrying to much.

shall I go the extra mile and get clips.

The one from TT works fine mate... had mine on for months now and it's survived the winter and countless washes!

Didn't use any glue, just the sticky sticker on the back of it!

Another vote for the badge from TorqueSteer. I was apprehensive, but it's pretty firm on there and looks brill!

i got mine off ebay for £2
cant tell the difference to the original and it has stayed on for 6 months now with numerous jet washes and general abuse
no point paying £10 or whatever TT are charging

ebay ones that go for a few quid are fakes. got one a wile ago for 3 quid or wotever and its just a plastic badge, if u hold it up to the proper badge its alot bigger. i took mine off wen i got my grills sprayed, mite buy a proper 1 soon. id add a we drop of super glue to the sticky bit and wap it on the grill if u think it mite come off.

The adhesive on the back is fine. And it probably is fake, feels plastic but it didn't really bother me tbh, if it is plastic and a few quid then if it does fall off then it wont be as bad i suppose.

Exactly my thinking. Not like anyone is going to measure the 2 and compare. Of course its fake for 2 quid but no way i'm paying 11quid for one thats almost identical just because its made by ford

Mine is much bigger than a normal one tho, but if and when it falls off i've got a proper one to got on
