Why are we reinventing the wheel when Folex has these available. He's a long-time member and no one has been cheated out of their $$ for the badges. I have purchased several times and no problem. see the post above for his link ^^^^^ or this one below:

Patience, Grasshoppers. Mine took about a month , BUT I got them, they are very nice and apply as promised. You guys are going down an expensive road. He's been doing them for years with no issues. Just like the hood badges, I tend to stick with what works and Folex works!! He hasnt let anyone down at all. Other than timeliness, I've never heard a complaint. Patience is a virtue. I'd be upset if they never came, BUT they did. All in due time, Your AMG will RUN and run WELL without them.

I just emailed Folex, asking for a shipped price to me in Canada. Fingers crossed. I want these on the car once the 55 swap is done!

I have a set of 5.5 badges that I ordered back when I had plans on getting an E55. Never used them and they just sat in my closet until I was cleaning some things out recently. Looking to get about $100 for them. Let me know if you're interested.

Man i just bought a pair from forum member for $35 shipped express to my door .. Guess someone will pay it if they want them bad enough .

I just sprayed mine flat black will post pics of finish when done

edit: since my rear emblems are black figured these would look good also since my others ones didnt come out bad
Just sprayed them flat or matte black .. I think it looks cool . what you guys think !

Okay, just to drag this up again!

I can get these made! However I would need to order 1000 badges minimum, so that would be 500 people I would need to sell them to! Think that would be near impossible! What do you reckon?
