Silicone sealant.

Two things I've used which should do the trick.
1) Wickes clear instant grab adhesive: https://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Ultimate-Instant-Grab-Adhesive-Clear---290ml/p/214517
It's quite thick, a bit like clear silicone, but it's far stickier and adheres really well. You'd be able to make a fillet in the gap, smooth it off with something and it'll stay put. It cures hard but tough. I've got it holding up all sorts of fascias and trims round the kitchen and I'm pretty sure it'll be fine on a car badge.
2) Bostik clear glue. I'm pretty sure this will do the trick, but you might struggle to get it to neatly fill the gap.
Don't be tempted to use Araldite. It doesn't stick well unless your surface prep is impeccable, in my experience, and it's very brittle. It'll also decide to run out the gap before it has finished curing and leave you with a skanky epoxy slime mark. You might get away with Double Bubble, it's a bit tougher than Araldite and nowhere near as yellow.

I need to fix a plastic car head badge to a plastic grill.
The plastic badge is flat, the grill slightly curved. The 3m tape that came with the badge was not up to the task.
Id like to glue it.
Glue needs to dry clear, be weather and shock resistant.
What glue should I use?
Thanks
