People still ask how flush to the hood my badges are. Here's a good example. You can't get any more flush than this...

Happy New Year to all.

Let's start off the new year with some new pictures, please?

[DFWdude]

Going forward...

With the purchase of either a WHITE STAR Flat Badge or an AMG Flat Badge, and I will throw in the chromed upright tristar that is removed from the OEM Mercedes upright hood ornament in order to make your Flat badge.

Use this star in several ways. Below are some ideas...

AMG Flat Badge serial #70 is the next to be sold.

From time to time, I've gotten requests for WHITE STAR Flat Badges or AMG Flat Badges with the blue laurel wreath done in black, mostly from people with black cars.

In addition, there are some with the newer sedans (like the W204 Luxury) sporting the blue badge in the upper grille who prefer to avoid the "double badge look."

While changing the color on badge inserts already made is not in the cards, I thought this all chrome style might work, instead as a third option among my custom flat badges.

So, what do you think?

The core of this badge is made from an S-Class part (#221-880-0086), not the blue laurel wreath cores from the W210 E-Class part (#210-880-0186). So the S-Class part will cost $10 more to buy from the dealer, which means the finished badge will cost $10 more than my previous work. So keep that in mind.

If any of you are interested in this new, Chrome Flat Badge, please click on this link DFWdude@tx.rr.com to let me know and I will put you on a list. At this time I am only gauging interest in this style and have not decided to actually make examples for sale.

I have a list of folks who want these Chrome based badges, so I will make a few on special request only. Serial numbers will start at 003.

And thanks for your support. Pictures are sparce for the new style, so I will look forward to seeing them.

To clarify, I call these "Chrome Badges" because they look like chrome. However, truth be known, the mirror-like finish is a highly polished Aluminum, cast as part of the entire core mount of the original upright star.

All three style badges are available.

These Polished aluminum badges are a custom-order, side business, made only when requested. In contrast, my other badges remain available, and I carry stock of these at all times...

People still ask me for the White Star Flat Badge with the deeper relief background in the tristar insert.

Everyone should be assured that I sell ONLY this deeper style, the "Current Production" example shown in the picture below... I ran out of the "Original," flatter tristar inserts years ago.

WHITE STAR Flat Badge #524 is the next to be sold.

Here are a few pictures showing how my badges sit within the hood divot, flush with the top of the hood. Compare these with the OEM, 2-1/2" SLK badge that sits on top of the hood...

I have the original prototype left of the Polished Flat Badge. Shown below, it is unfinished, so that either the WHITE STAR, or AMG insert can be put in place. Buyer to choose which stlye they want. Once this badge is sold, I do not plan to make any more. This means there will be less than ten of these on the planet.

Anyone interested in this last of its breed should click on this link DFWdude@tx.rr.com to inquire ASAP. First come first served.
