what about the actual c55, is that bolted on, not taped.
has anyone had a perfect result with just the 3M tape?

Two possible reasons:
1) I'm a poser
or
2) I believe that AMG, on top of being an engine tuner, is also a brand for parts & accessories (since the letters AMG are visibly imprinted on my wheels and brakes, exhaust, etc).
For the sake of not getting into another "you can/you can't put the emblem on" diatribe, I'll gladly accept either of the above that you feel you might want to ascribe to me.

Just for the records, and without any relevance or implications, my car cost me RM303,800, accessories not included. That is equivalent to USD79,947.37 - more than what a C55 costs in the US. So, my C230K costs more than all your C32s out there in the States :p
