Help Please...

My poor Lucy (2007 Fit) got smashed by the garage door today, her Rear emblem popped off and a chunk of the car right below broke off... do you think I can superglue the emblem? I can only imagine that the dealer will need to replace the entire hatch door. I'm so heart broken, please help or any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you post up some pictures of the damage so we can get a better idea on how to help/give advice? Superglue would work, but the badge could still fall off over time.

You might want to replace that entire trim piece. To stick the emblem back on you can go to an auto parts store and get some 3M emblem adhesive. That will hold it.

That looks pretty bad. Maybe you should just order that center piece and replace it. It's called the licence moulding and can be ordered painted. Looks like you need silver. 55 bucks. Not bad.

No problem. Gave me something to do while I was waiting for my pot pie to cook.

You could order it in another color like black and make your fit more unique...
