C63 coupe P31, '11 G37s, '12 RR Evoque Prestige '10 QX56
I saw a C350 sedan ('08-'09) turned C53 AMG. The guy was too cheap to buy new badging and just swapped the "3" and "5", dropped the "0". That, or he had a custom "one off" 5.3 liter hand built for him.

too funny....i just got done buying the CLS63 emblems for my C63 only because i was thinking about putting SC63 when the Weistec goes on......but now i'm not sure cuz i don't want a pic like this to hit the sites if somebody doesn't know any better . if i do it , at least there will be a good reason

Must be a reflection, I did not notice any damage and I just snapped it quick with my blackberry...I stopped to look at the car because it was F'in nice, red interior caught my eye through the rear glass, etc...then I looked down...and then scratched my head...wtf
btw - I think SC63 on a supercharged car sounds badass, not posing...

I'll wager that the guy was in an accident and had the trunklid resprayed/replaced, and the guy at the body shop failed to take notice of the lettering he was installing.
Benz tends to combine badge lettering to reduce inventory. For example, if you order a "TURBO" badge from a B200 Turbo, they send you a "TURBODIESEL" badge and you just drop the "DIESEL". So for an "S350" badge you'd get an "SLK350", and persumably for "C63" they'd send you "CLK63" or "CLS63".
