hey guys. im thinking about shaving all my emblems except the T symbol in the middle. is it hard to reattact symbols? when i sell my car i'd like to put the emblems back on for the buyer. is it as simple as just reglueing it back on with the rubber compound?

those aren't stock emblems. it looks like somebody bought individual letters at home depot or something...
