I would use 3M double sided tape. I used that stuff to glue my dad's truck emblem and it has been years since we replaced his truck bed.

JB Weld makes a High Heat Epoxy that works really well. I've used it to reattach Corvette emblems to SBC valve covers with great results.

I was going to suggest an epoxy but they stuff will be so tough to remove if you need to get it off.

1-min epoxy would be my choice.  No need to hold endlessly.  Strong but not end of world strong.  Double sided tape is likely best option unless you don't like the added mm of spacing.
