New Dynamic Grille Concept!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was bored... and was thinking of a way to have the symbol spin like a plane propeller as air was pushed into it... probably would look amazing when driving.

maybe have it work the same those big bladed wind turbines you see spin.




only question is who will make the 1st prototype!

Dude! You need help.
First step is admitting you have a problem.

I applaud the creativity, but this reminds me of that cheep spinner wheel fad that needs to die.

If you do it right, it messes with radar/lidar/etc and keeps the cops from detecting our speed. Now that would be useful, no?

Meanwhile, NO!

And the 3-ptd star represented that the company was on land, sea, and air. Nothing to do with the BMW propellers.

It'll be cool if your benz is an Autobot Transformer and can turn to a giant robot.

Which means you don't know the meaning of the three points?

MB beginner, I guess.

i guess i just assumed they made plane engines at some point... and tha thing looks like a typical propeller design... never really went out of way to research benz...

and your late... jstaneff imparted that bit of knowledge a few posts back.

now that i've learned what the logo means... am i a MB novice!



what level of MB knowledge are you at rle?

could be an external super charger...just spin in at about 30,000 rpm and reroute the air...not finger friendly though... but you could chew the propeller emblems off of poor BMWs you have run down....
