C230 Lettering Becoming Loose
The C230 badge lettering on the rear left trunk is becoming loose. You know what to use to make them stick better?

Yeah, bring it back to the dealer & have them fix it. Dont put anything yrself, dont want you to ruin the paint.
Or you might take out the "0" and put a "AMG" badge in replacing the Kompressor. Then it will become a C23 AMG!
Just kidding!

I just called the MB dealer. They say it's not under warranty and I asked if they can put some glue underneath to make it a better stick. Then he goes you can't do that because you'd have to buy the individual letters to replace them.
In other words, he wants you to spend money.

I like the rear without badges
Why advertise??
It makes people wonder, "what is it?"
Just use dental floss and a mixture of car wash lquid and water in a spray bottle. Spray the solution around the letters and use the floss. They come off easily.

Why yes,
needless to say,
Never remove the Star.
Although some people on the TT forum have removed the Audi rings and all badges front and back -- gives it more of a track look -- and not terribly attractive IMHO
