Questions about Spider-Man emblems

I'm working on a Spidey suit and was originally planning on using 2mm EVA foam for the emblems, but I fear that it will tear easily. I don't have the budget to cast emblems, so I thought about cutting the emblems out of some sort of rubber sheet. But, I'm not sure what kind of rubber is best and I'm not sure where I could find both black and red for front and back emblems. Also, if anyone knows what glue works best for the rubber that would be great. (I attached the emblem design files I'm planning on using, in case that matters)

Ok this is very late, but if you still need advice, I used foam on my first suit and it worked great, though I think what I used was a bit thicker than 2mm. Just plastidip them for added protection. I used regular gel Loctite superglue and for smaller emblems it works just fine.

However, for larger emblems, which I'd say your back logo qualifies as, as well as if you're using rubber, use this stuff called Gear Aid Aquaseal. I used it for my advanced suit emblem and though it's a bit messy it's more flexible than superglue.

Thanks! I already finished the suit I was working on. I did something pretty similar to the foam emblems, I just glued some more durable material on the back of them so they wouldn't tear as easily (idk what the material was exactly, some sort of mat meant to put on shelves or something) But I'll keep that Gear Aid Aquaseal stuff in mind for future suits.
