Those are emblem specific, but I'm sure any 3m double sided tape would work.

Use the tape... its alot less messy and is easier to apply to the emblem and then easier to apply both the car. glue sucks, especially if you ever want to take it off lol.

You trim the excess tape off of the emblem so none shows once mounted. Its really easy.

Glue will run if the car is in direct sunlight on a really hot day. The tape is the way to go. Just cut the tape with a razor to follow the lines of the emblem.
