Like this? Too much like a cue ball, IMO.....

This is by far, the best I've seen... might consider it for the $149 price, once my WB/C32/AMG/SC/A-L-M is complete.

4-AMG - can this hood badge be ripped off the car easily like the MB Star or is the bolt connected directly to the badge?

Its a nice looking badge but the lower right arm of the "A" looks cut off in order to fit the M and G. The bottom edges of the A are supposed to be flat even accross.

I have this one. It is of the highest quality. Is it worth 149.00? No. Did I have to have it? Definitely.

It's attached on the underside via a threaded post + fender-washers (neoprene & metal) + a wing-nut. You might as well rip-off the entire hood if you want to steal the badge.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33643

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33643

The thing is that the seller of the screw-on (Top Link) says that it fits MOST mercedes and not all. I prefer the one that screws on but I wonder if it fits the W209... Does anybody know? Has anyone bought from this seller before? I might just end up buying the 3M adhesive one (Bottom Link) if it can't fit on it.

Anyways, just thought I'd let you guys know about the rear badge.

I too ordered one from 4-AMGs last week. Received it yesterday. VERY nice!! Definately the best quality out there (Thanks M).

I also ordered there rear badge in your first link (came as a 2 pc hood and trunk kit) and was not happy with the quality of either piece and resold them. These other badges are nowhere near the quality of the ones from 4-AMGs....

I want one of those! It might be too expensive for my budget. Maybe for $100. Please email me if there are anymore left for sale.

Either he is a troll or he just wants one. If he wants one, it's his car and he can do what he wants and shouldn't get flamed. It's not something I like to see or would ever do but why should we care about it. In either case. I would suggest not going there ...

Just my $0.02

Rgds,
Norm

got mine

I started this thread and met 4-AMG's (Mario) this weekend.

Great guy and great product. We compared it to the one off e-bay I bought.

E-Bay one = piece of ****

4-Amg's one = Great - well worth the $$$

Thanks Mario!

David in C32 Town (I see 3 in my neighborhood) and one C55, too
