There’s s couple of videos on YouTube with badgeskins being fitted that might be worth watching - one Golf GTI (tailgate and grill badges) and a GTD (grille badge);

Also, the ‘how to’ instructions on the Badgeskins website;

They are really simple to fit. Ideally should be a reasonable temp but if not, use a hairdryer to warm things up.

Get the badges as clean as pop - all purpose cleaner or something similar.
Get the badge dry. Hairdryer or air blower is perfect so any trapped water is removed
I opened the boot half way so it's easy height to see properly.
Take your time.
