Chrome Delete
Finally found a solution to the chrome doorhandles so the last bit of chrome I need to take care of now is the badges.
Does anyone know where to go for a full set of gloss black badges? I need the 2 V8 Biturbo fender badges, the trunk C63S badge, the trunk AMG badge, and the trunk Mercedes badge.
I tried inquiring about getting them wrapped or painted but everywhere either said theyre too small to wrap or they were asking for almost a grand to paint them all. I'd like to avoid plasti dipping, I did it on my w204 c250 almost 6 years ago but I'd like a higher quality gloss solution this time. Any help is appreciated!

this one says coupe. the sedan says AMG under the BITURBO. The Coupe does not say AMG under it.

This one is almost perfect. Unfortunately it looks like theres no option for gloss black without the red, and the s badge seems to be the wrong shape.
So frustrating! I never would have thought getting new badges would be such a difficult thing to do!

Why not paint them yourself? Just order some 3M double sided tape and get to work!

I noticed the gloss black set on eBay when I was looking but ended up purchasing everything separately due to the “c63s” having the red. Ended up ordering everything in gloss black.. the “c63s”is a little different than OEM but it was an oem part which had me confused. Anyways, it beats chrome. Also getting my handles wrapped for $100.

I had my handles wrapped recently but every time I opened the door I felt it. I was worried with all the use a doorhandle gets it would eventually peel a bit so I just took them off.
I ended up buying these https://global.cksperformance.com/pr...or-accessories
The fit is not exactly perfect, so you end up seeing a bit of chrome on the inside but its good enough, and the quality is pretty good.
The have it for both left hand and right hand drive cars so make sure you order the right one. I linked the left hand.

Unfortunately a lot of the badges you find online are crap. Your best bet may be plasti-dip with the gloss topcoat so that you can return them to stock. I ordered a set of black badges online and the paint was already cracking by the time I opened the package, which is why I decided to paint my own.
