In November 2004, they were $14 at the dealership. I highly doubt they come in CF.

All those eBay hood emblems suck. ForMyMercedes sells the OEM plastic flat hood badge, but yes it will fade in time....

See this thread to get the best flat hood badge out there, hands down !

Nice :)

The badge looks nice, but I prefer the star, hehe.

Whos DFWdude?
 

That is a clean hood emblem. The white star is a attention grabber.Is it metal? Im new here I have an 05' c230k sedan in Orion blue. I just bought a flat hood emblem and its made of plastic so Im thinking about getting a different one in metal. I will just use the plastic one for days I want to change it up.

Too bad DFWDude wasn't able to make a compatible white star flat badge for the coupes. I do like my Brabus hood badge, though. :naughty:

just wait.... :naughty:

My WHITE STAR Flat Badge is made from the original upright star mount, which comprises the basic metal core, the metal lock set and the Blue Laurel Wreath surround, all as they come from the factory. To this I mill out the center metal upright star mount, and replace it with the WHITE STAR insert...

The WHITE STAR insert is also 100% METAL with enamelled white star!

I'm glad you like your WHITE STAR Flat Badge, mad_vtak!

MJ50, I'd like to make a badge for the coupe, but the OEM upright star base of the sedan will not fit the hood on the coupe.

Clean! It just begs to have a big ole star on the grille too. Get one of these paint-matched jobs. This pie plate's Iridium Silver from 55Tech.com for $119.

wait, this is a custom painted grille? I LOVE THE LOOK, but im not sure if its just the normal silver Cl style grille...cuz i dont like that one very much

It is the CL style but the fins are a little larger and they are painted Iridium. Paint match is perfect. Edges are chromed. I got it on Ebay here.

it says its for w202 though?

Sorry, my bad. Here's the W203 one I got. A little more expensive but you can ask to have it without the flat hood ornament. Might save some scratch. The hood ornament, latch and center star were all OEM MB in the original MB boxes and PN#s.

it looks a lot better on your car than on the sellers pics..

I've had a 50/50 reaction from people; they either love it or hate it. There's no middle ground it seems. I just think it might go real well with mad_vtak's new flush hood ornament if you could find the right color.
