I was thinking of that.. but i would still have the 3 holes where the 'mazda' emblem was located.
the whale tale will have to remain i guess..

fishing line, with a little coat of wax on it, and then i used bug/tar remover to remove the gummy/sticky residue.
it was the only way i could place the emblem and cover up the 3 odd holes.

I see. So you were able to attach the RX-8 emblem just like that, or did you use something sticky? Yea, stupid question.
Your exhaust pipes need cleaning btw =P

Bug and Tar removal was made for cars, so i know that's ok. but be careful with GOO-GONe, i heard that can eat away at the clear coat.

My first idea was the same as yours, but I did this (pic), instead of that.

Funny, Truemagellen and I were talking about relocating that last night 
Looks good I remember a while back pulling the Mazda badge off and being bummed that it had holes behind it. If they use double sided tape on RX-8 why can't they with the Mazda logos?
I shaved the pins on the front emblem and using moulding tape before reapplying it. Wanted to have the option of taking it off without filling holes.
