Default Questions before doing my emblems tomorrow

Doing some research I saw that the rear emblem would need to have the clips cut and sanded so I took care of that to the best of my ability. Where do I put the tape on the emblems to prep them for tomorrow and is this the correct tape for the job? Does the rear emblems clips look like they are down enough? Will "goof off" work for cleaning up the leftover adhesive on the truck? Haha sorry for 20 questions.... just wanna start the job fully prepared.

Tape looks good, put it where the emblem is the highest and most consistent. Goo gone or goof off should work with removing the leftover adhesive. Good Luck!

Looks like mine did, I used the same tape in pretty much the same places, they don't budge.

Lol, I'll make sure they aren't crooked! The alignment pins on the fender badges should make those two straight though right? Haha. My gf will be my straightness judge *crosses fingers*
I like my automind! More power/throttle response and better shift points compared to stock. If it didn't come with my whole banks kit though I would have probably gotten an Edge for the cool dash pod :-P
