It was a tough choice. I have a small box of misc vehicle badging (eventually to use in my basement bar).... Some were WAY too big to consider for this toy car. But the SS was such an ideal size.
I am honestly amazed it's still holding. I used my best 2-part epoxy for use with plastic (I've found the cheap ACE Hardware branded stuff works well). And what little prep time I had and everything..... But I'm glad it worked out, made for a couple of chuckles!
OH and my wife and I did something we did with a sweet gift our other nephew got a couple years ago.... We wrote a funny letter to go with the gift and explaining why it's the coolest gift!! That got more laughs then the badge by itself.
