Affalterbach badge on Affalterbach edition!

I thought my car was missing a badge to commemorate the special edition so I got some on ebay... just got them and installed them. The quality of the pics is low (iPhone). Not sure about them... what do you think?

The only people that would even know what that badge is, would ALREADY know how special your car is at first glance. The extra badges look out of place on that amazing car. One badge on the hood would be enough.

I'm sorry, but i'm gonna have to agree with the others. It just doesn't look right there. Besides, taken into consideration how awesome your Affalterbach edition is already i don't think it needs anything else but the special matte color to draw attention.

You should be dragged out of your house in the middle of the night, spanked in public, then you should have your car taken away from you and you should be given a Mitsubishi Evolution.

You have paid through the nose for an Affalterbach Edition C63...do you need constant redundant reminders? I'm surprised you haven't made vinyl stickers for your windshield and all over your car that say "Affalterbach Edition", "AMG RACING SUPER SPORT" "GERMAN POWER" "C63 P31 AWESOMENESS"...

When you get around to that, (as I am guessing you are almost there), post a pic...

Just my opinion, it is a bit much.
But to each his own.

I agree with all of you... I didn't feel it at all when installed but wanted to get the general concesnsus. I get it! Just found them by browsing on ebay and thought I would give it a try. 8$ lee for gas.

I'm kind of thinking about a huge MB sign pissing on a BMW sign in the back window, after reading some comments...

My first post is a quote. I think the emblem is fun but out of place. Couldn't hurt to give it a shot though
