Magno Clear Bra
My dealer Mercedes Benz Westminster did an incredible job fitting my Magno Iridium Silver GTS with a Matte Xpel paint protection film. I ended up doing almost a full body wrap in PPF. You can not tell that the film is on the car. The Matte PPF looks so much better than the rest of my gloss cars. If you have a Magno car I highly recommend getting it wrapped in Matte PPF.

Crooked emblem
Looking at your pictures I noticed that the biturbo emblem looks crooked and not lined up with fins? I too have this problem and the dealer is replacing them for me. Im curious who else has this problem? Im sure looking at your pics and my car, they are crooked.

Agree, I also have XPEL Matte on my BMW M5 Frozen Grey. It's very good. The only thing to watch out for is that it has a smoother texture than real paint so at certain angles you can tell the difference in texture but straight on you can't tell. By doing the whole car you eliminate this issue since you only have one texture.
You should also make sure to apply sealant to the clear bra to protect it from UV and also other chemicals. I recommend the Dr Beasley's or Nanolex matte sealants.

Mine too! I think they made a bad batch of driver side emblems because it appears to be a single part. I'm curious how many other owners have the crooked emblem on the drivers side. Its a very obvious flaw and I'm surprised they were sent out that way. My dealer is replacing the emblem but my guess is that AMG let them go because they didn't want to hold up production. I absolutely love my GTS but have found a couple of flaws in quality that I made them replace immediately! We paid for perfection, no less!!
