Best bets:
www.ebay.com

plus, there may be a member or two here selling various styles and sizes.
Good luck

I was trying to find a cool flat emblem a while ago but couldn't find a design that would look good for my white car. I didn't love the tree/camshaft bc to me it didn't look sporty/clean enough. The closest thing that I liked was the silver ///AMG on black. But it would look too contrast on my hood. I wish there was the reverse version of that, silver back ground with black ///AMG lettering. Maybe someone with a good access could design and actually manufacture them for us to buy.
I ended up using the oem MB flat emblem.

AMG Hood Badge
This is the badge you're looking for. It's made of heavy, chrome-plated brass with the color AMG/Affalterbach logo. It will fit the recessed hole when your MB star is removed. 5 minute installation via a threaded post - all hardware is included. It has never been sold on eBay and only via word-of-mouth. The cost is $149 payable via PayPal, which includes USPS Priority mail. I've attached a picture.

Looks worth it to me - it definitely looks to be of higher quality than the ones I've seen on eBay, and I'm **** enough to want something that fits perfectly.

This will definitely fit the recessed hole in a C class grill (C32 or C55.) The logo is a replica of the original AMG logo found on AMG cars in the 70's and 80's. The logo can now be found in monochrome on top of the superchargers of the new kompressor engines.

I've had this emblem on my W208 CLK for almost a year and it still looks great. Also, my buddy with a C32 has one. Fits perfect.
Please PM me with any info regarding pricing, etc.

Thx whitey, that looks good. yeah, seller info pls. you know, maybe u could be the distributor for us
I actually was picturing something more like this one but in reverse. Silver background with black ///AMG letters. Cleaner looking.

Anyway, the smaller shops here don't really send overseas and they definitely don't speak much English so giving you an address in HK won't help but I'm happy to hook up (with no additional margin) and I really don't want to appear to be butting in on 4 AMG's deals.......just sharing another option here.
