Around $40 for all 3. The "MAZDA" emblem has no glue on it - so I really didn't need to order that one. (easy to break a post on removal though)
Reordering is much better than trying to re-apply 3M tape.

Can you just buy the Mazda color specific touch up paint, remove emblems, paint em and stick em back on? I dig the look of body colored emblems with the RX-8 brake light mod!

If I were to do it again I would have primered and then used a clear coat. Especially on the front one due to rock chips. Mine are fine and it has been about 2 weeks (1,500+ miles) I don't see them lasting very long. Waiting for some colored or even carbon fiber emblems........Parker :D
