fix hood emblem with broken stud?

Years ago I stumbled across a totally awesome AD cabbed tandem axle Mapleleaf truck abandoned out in the woods. The emblems came home with me.

I want to put the emblems on my half ton. because Canada flag eh.
One side of that old truck hood had lost an argument with something and the last remaining stud parted company from the emblem removing it from the hood.

Anyone have suggestions how to attach the damaged emblem?
I've read of people using a low temp solder to fix emblems, that seems a little weak for this.
Two sided tape perhaps, but the back of the emblem is hollowed out so not a lot of surface area.
A glue? I do want to be able to remove it without destroying it in future, but don't mind so much if the paint needs touch up when that happens.

My best idea so far is a couple small flat head stainless screws right through it and just learn not to look at that detail in future.
