Please HELP!

Hi there

Recently purchased a C63 BS, but it showed up without the badge on the interior dash and it looks like ****. Was a second hand buy from a dealer so he has not been very helpful.

Talked to the local dealership and they say that you cannot order the badge without buying a whole new carbon fibre dash piece! i think $4000 is a bit too much to pay for a small piece of plastic.

This is the picture of the badge I am talking about, I have scoured the internet trying to find one, and have recently been looking for a few auto wrecker C63 BS's to try see if I can pay someone to remove one from them.

If anyone has time to help it would be greatly appreciated. Not sure what else to do here.

Thanks!

You could get the BS trunk badge and stick it on the dash, not exactly the same but definitely not 4 grand.

Hummm interesting...

A C350 to "sound" like a C63?

Does this mean you're creating/purchased a C63 Bull Sh¡t?

Sounds like you purchased a C63 or normal C class with a BS body kit. In order to order the interior dash piece/emblem, they actually require the VIN of the BS vehicle or they won't sell you the piece. I have also heard there is a very long waiting list (though this might have changed).

It is pretty hard to believe that the car did not come with that piece...I agree with the others, need full pics or this is just another lost cause story.

You could get a vinyl print of it and put it there... won't be as nice obviously, but better than damaged carbon.

Do you have a pic? It's interesting to me that someone would remove that...

Lighten up guys. The quote in his sig is from a real post by someone (someone else!) several years ago. So bizarre that you've GOT to laugh at it.

j bro has been on the forum for years, had an 09 C63 that I think he sold recently.

You're kind of SOL. It's next to impossible to find them on the internet (as you have seen) and the dealer option seems to be your only option. This popped up once before a long time ago.

Still don't understand why people remove it in the first place. Almost like they take it off just before getting rid of it as a token to remember the car.

So you have a 2009 C63 AND a C63 Black Series? That's sweet. Where are the pics of your new beast? You going to switch the mods over, or keep the 09 too?

The 09 is mine, and the BS is part of my old mans car collection. its got near 20,000 miles on it, so it might be easier to convince him to throw some headers on it!

Nice car. Looks clean. Side front quarter badges are wrong though. It should be a simple "6.3". Seems that the previous owner liked to mess with the various AMG badges on the car, that's weird.

What else is in that collection?

I know its gonna be a tough one, esp since it is only one letter. It is also very weird how just one letter would come off like that, and to be honest its pretty ****ty the dealer we got it from never mentioned it.

It might come down to someone with a generous heart who also has a black series temporarily removing there A and seeing if there is a part number on the back of it or something.

Or if someone has a recently wrecked BS or something.

I know its a long shot but I'm currently out of ideas, hopefully you guys can help!!

Yes i know the side badges have been bugging me too, I want to change them out for the original 6.3 and get some badges for the trunk as well as this guy before removed those!

Gotta show off that black series badge when you actually have one!

As far as the collection goes, its getting a bit ridiculous

Don't take this question the wrong way, but did you get this from an MB dealer? Did you run the VIN to make sure it's a real BS? Ask Valvestud for the build sheet. I'm sure you did all this already, but I'd be double and triple checking everything including accident and repair history on this, because something seems a little weird here with the prior owner messing with all the badges and stuff. Even the color doesn't look like the MB white to my eyes. Maybe I'm just paranoid.

I appreciate your concern, but yes its definitely a Black Series. It seems odd to alot of people on this forum including myself why you would remove the badges, but this guy also had the rims, grill and side trim blacked out, he must have been going for a clean look and most likely didn't belong to a forum or he would have known that this is a cardinal sin

We checked the car fax as well and there were no accidents.

And in person it is definitely MB Diamond White, don't let the bad pictures fool you.

I ran the VIN. It is a Black, and there is a separate part number for the "lettering". However, EPC indicates it is no longer available.
