ZACH:
Do use epoxy - but DON'T epoxy the badge to the body. Get a pair of
8-32 screws with nuts, epoxy the nuts to the recessed back of the badge,
then cut heads off of screws to create studs which can be screwed into
the nuts on the badge. These can then be inserted into the body holes,
and a nut placed on those ends to secure to body.
