Flat hood emblem to fit C55 recess.
I searched this board and E-bay. Seems that most flat hood emblems are 1-7/8" (48mm) dia. and this will not fit in the recess of the C55 hood but rather on top. I think to fit in the recess would require 1-3/4" (44mm) dia. and I prefer either an "MB" or "AMG" emblem. Some older posts mentioned a $150 AMG emblem that would fit in the recess but I have not been successful in finding that one.
Anyone know of a quality metal flat emblem that will fit inside the recess of the C55 hood?
If the C55 has a CLK55 nose, wouldn't that emblem fit? Too easy, I guess.

check e-bay.de as well.
I found a 1 5/8" AMG badge that fits like a glove on my CLK and my friend's C32. Metal and good quality...

If you want the multi-colored AMG badge, there are some available. Plus, some folks on this site may sell the multi-colored badges.
Good luck

Norm,
This one has the same packaging as the one I purchased....
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33643
You may ask the seller to measure it for you.....seller may also know how to source the one I've got.

I wish when people say they got something on E-bay they would IM or EM and provide seller info.
