Does anyone know a shop in the (760) area that will do a good job putting on new badges on my car, i just bought some new ones. I would do it myself but i am afraid of messing my paint.

your gonna actually pay to have badges put on your car? They just stick on right? if so, then your paint should be fine... if you need to take the old one's off just get a hair dryer and heat em up real good then they should come off easily...

I bought new Z28 badges. Not cheap overlay sticks but the actual thing. I was think about taking the old ones off and putting on new ones myself but i was wondering if anyone new a place that would do it for cheap.
