I was thinking of having the rear windows tinted but a friend pointed out that my side view mirrors' automatic dimming will probably stop functioning if I do this. Have you noticed this since getting yours tinted? I assume the automatic dimming sensor is on the rear view mirror... ?

I'm late to the game on this but several years ago I debadged my cousin's mustang with a hair dryer and waxed dental floss. It's fairly easy. Use a little paint-safe goo-gone to get the remnants of the adhesive off.

Looks good! You should try to cover up the chrome. I blacked out all the chrome on my black c300. Tinted at 35% all around and 65% on windshield. Debadged with no chrome looks great! I'll try and get a good pic sometime

It's a German thing!
Or you can just ask your dealer or shop to do it. I had it done as part of the dealer prep for delivery. No problem. My wife and I go to Germany about once a year. There. at least 3/4s of the cars are debadged. Economy cars or luxury cars, it makes no difference. No one can explain why, even if it has been done on their own cars. It is just a custom. So I am used to seeing debadged cars. If you want to tell people that it makes your car look more German, you have my permission.
