Not trying to be a smart ***, but did you ask your MB dealer?

rpm north is a dealer here who sells them, i grabbed a set, good price and good quality! plus they are high heat vinyl which is important when doing your calipers. i used G2 caliper paint on mine, then applied the logos, then threw on high heat krylon clear coat, stuff looks professional as hell for a diy.

RPM North has the AMG decals in correct sizes for front and rear calipers.

they did change the font, but i believe all the did is have one side of the A, non angled to it runs parallel with the M, seen below...

here is the old one, not much of a difference, especially on the calipers, nobody should say much to you, if rpm doesn't have the 12+ and you want the new logos, any vinyl site on the internet should be able to do it for you, so long that you give them the proper measurements of your existing logos, all you need is the image in black and white, and have it emailed to them with the sizes you need, here is the logo

good luck

unless, yours are like this, http://media.caranddriver.com/images...s-1280x782.jpg

if so, i can try and get it as good as possible on photoshop for you, and if you think it is a pretty accurate replica, send it out to a vinyl store online that does high heat vinyls to replicate for you, again telling him the sizing you need, best point is to tell them what size the letters should be when they are printed, for both rears and fronts

thanks a lot for the help and time you put into this .. yup, the 2012s r just like that black series .. large and in charge :P it looks a lot better when you put the cars side to side trust .. it think what I'm gonna do is have the paint shop trace out the current AMG logo, and use it as a stencil to actually paint on the logo as it is in the original state .. shouldn't have any heat issues or whatnot ! .. u think that would work ?

OK. SO I have these two images:






Can anyone here turn them into a nice clean graphic suitable for scaling?

Did anyone turn these into a clean graphic to take to a vinyl shop to have either curved stencils or vinyl stickers made? I really want to paint my calipers but not if I can't get the logo to look right.
