Need more AMG emblems!
So, decided that inside the car, really not much indication it is an AMG car except seats are different and embossed (but not very noticeable). Only other place it says is on the speedo where no one sees.
Decided on a new steering wheel trim as mine was a bit worn and purchased the one that says AMG instead of airbag (got it on ebay, OEM part, shipped from Eastern Europe - $125 came in 5 days).
On top of that I like the 507 dash emblem plate, so decided to do something similar and got the AMG seat logo plate from the newer cars, cut off mounts and emblem taped it to my dash (total $25)
Seems the not quite AMG cars (45's) and the newer real AMG cars all have more logos these days.

'10 C63
Doesn't look bad. Definitely good execution and the steering wheel emblem is definitely better than the airbag one. The dash emblem is not my taste, but my car doesn't have badges. I'm more of the mindset that if you know what the car is, you don't need a badge to tell you. And if you don't know what it is, a badge won't really matter to you. I like things clean and tidy and symmetrical.

Almost bought this one but might be a bit big.
