I like the painted badging. Creative and tasteful.

I don't quite understand the whole Euro plate under the CA plate.

I like it a lot. Now your C63 looks like Darth Maul
MNL you are very creative.
You made so many little mods that make your car one of a kind.
You are always ahead of us, keep it up.

Obviously a complete copy of MNL ICE, and I don't know if I'm going to keep it. I love it from the back, but when you can see my gaudy-*** gold wheels and the back at the same time, it feels a little busy.

Sweeeet! Nice job! Any step by step on how to remove, paint, then reattach? I would really like to know how you make the paint stick and how you remove and place back...!

I bought another set of badges to do this little project, so in case I didn't like how it turned out, I could undo it easily.

To take off the badges: heat & dental floss. Remember to somehow mark where they are before removing them (I just used masking tape & outlined).

To paint the badges: I just used Rustoleum + a clear coat. Some light sanding made sure the paint stuck.

Yea - MNL, the original idea was to see how white / red looked in psuedo-homage to yourself, but I think a different combo might be better, especially considering that my MB star is still silver (not to mention the strip of chrome on the trunk). So I think I will tinker in the coming days: maybe black, gold, silver. We'll see.

I'm probably going to give the dental floss a try though. I'm thinking about removing all my badging.
