Anyone with a new 2019 C43 get the AMG Key?
On dealer ordering guide for MY2019 under what's new it states ""New SmartKey in black with AMG crest and AMG lettering"" Has anyone received these on delivery? Mine are standard MB logo and lettering.

2023 AMG EQE 53
STD MB key, may stop by and ask the dealer. On my GLA45 there was a little tin box with a changable part of the key that had the AMG crest that I changed. Will check the misc stuff under the trunk floor and maybe it's in there?

On the AMG Private Lounge, the moderators confirmed that the C43 does not come standard with the AMG Key. I see both sides- the engine wasn't hand built, etc, but we also get all the benefits that AMG offers- lounge access, badging on the back, etc.
A gent on there also asked his dealership what it would take and it looks like they'd have to order a new key at 200 to 250 a pop since the back isn't designed for the standard key/non-gloss we have in the US.
I am currently waiting for an ebay order with the AMG aluminum bottom (removes with a tiny screw under the back battery door) and a battery door with the crest. The problem with the battery door is its glossy finish versus matte like my key. I also considered putting a skin on the key and putting a metal pressed crest sticker on the back and an AMG sticker on the front of it, depending on how ghetto it would look. I don't want to end up like those AMG posers that get their car's shammed on Instagram. haha
Here is the ebay order:
