How to re-badge letters?

I took the WRX off my trunk to color it red and now I want to put it back on. Anybody know what the best adhesive to use is? I have gorilla glue and this E6000 craft glue.

Thanks!

3M Emblem Tape. Gorilla Glue is a PITA if you ever need/want the emblem off again later, like for bodywork.

I have 3M double sided tape. Is different from Emblem Tape? The stuff I have seems fairly thick (1/8") and I wanted the letters to flush to the car.

Yes emblem tape is industry and application specific.

Went down to O'reilly's and they sold me some 3M Emblem Adhesive. It's like glue. I made it a tiny mess putting on the RX, but the W came out good. All in all it looks like a success in my book.

Thanks for the help everyone.
