AMG Afeterbach hood badge

Does anyone know if they make an AMG hood badge that will fit a C43? I have the matching Mercedes made wheel rim inserts and would love to have the hood badge to match.

I saw some aftermarket one but they would not fit the C43, I have heard Mercedes Benz makes one- if so a part number or info would be very helpful..

Thanks for any info

I was the one who informed you of an oem afterbach amg badge, but I am not sure if that is true and i think i am wrong in informing you that. i was thinking of this thread when you asked. I had the price right. but it does not appear to be oem or readily available.

I do not think there is an oem version and you will be limited to the other models.

Yes, that would be great.

As far as I know no one makes a genuine AMG hood Badge that I know of, I have seen chinese made knock offs but they wont fit the 2017 C43's hood.

It should make sense that if MB makes the AMG wheel inserts they should also make a hood emblem to match.

I upgraded to a black OEM Mercedes hood badge (same as factory version but black) then changed it to a aftermarket AMG hood badge for $20, fits perfectly.
Will post pictures tomorrow

Here is the OEM Black Mercedes emblem, same as what the factory one is but black rather than blue

Just an FYI - not sure if it's the same there. But all the late model production 2017's (and possibly 2018's) have the black emblem. My car came with it out of the factory
