To spray my rear badges I just bought an aerosol from eBay. Think it cost about £7.

To spray them you need plastic primer followed by the top coat colour of your choice.To fix them back on I would use double sided trim tape.

use wilko paints £4 each buy a grey primer, what ever colour you want, and a clear laquer, then use 3m double sided tape to stick back on, cut around the tape so it fits to the badges.
