Simple, Took a pic of my engine number, advised I had imported the car from the US, also provided the cars original VIN.

Contacted MB in Germany who gave me the generic part number for the plate, went to my MB dealer gave them the part number and engine number.

2 weeks or so later, come pick up your part.

HAPPY DAYS

And that "red" with black trim would be killer looking. Any wheel ideas? Monoblocks with a slight lip are my current wants, but the spacing over these calipers is a beeotch.

And please don't stop the updates, I read a lot more than I post and haven't missed one yet.
After much procrastination

These are the ones I chose a few months ago.

Gotcha, so is that the guy that built your engine and the p/n you have specific or is the p/n you have -AMG p/n 000 221 12 01
Regardless ,100% on getting a plaque - engine looks incomplete without it.

Its a generic part number for the actual plate that has to be accompanied with the engine number to complete the order.

They look up the engine, Identify the builder and ship it out.

I have the generic part number and can PM it to you if you like

All good mate, no amg for me currently. Thank you for the explanation - always wondered how to get one for my former orphan.
