Backup Camera Cover

Just finished swapping my rear badges on my 19 c63s coupe and oh my god... every video I watched or post I read made it seem 100000x easier than it actually was. I'm not even happy with the job I did, probably gonna take it to a shop and see if they can redo it for me. Not even gonna bother trying the V8 Biturbo badges myself. It got to the point where I didn't even bother getting all of the existing adhesive off and I just used it as a guide for the new badges.

The part I had the hardest time on was the trunk emblem. I got the piece off the car no problem, but I just couldn't get the emblem off! Finally I decided to wedge a tiny flathead around the edge and the adhesive finally started to give. But of course my hand slipped and I scratched the piece a bit.

My car is Graphite Grey Magno and while the scratch probably wouldn't be noticeable to anyone, I notice it and it will always drive me nuts if I don't do anything about it.

Does anyone know the part number for this so I can get a replacement? Any idea of what it's going to cost me?

I'd really like to get it without the damn emblem already on there. I swear that emblem is more solid than 99% of the interior!

Thanks in advance!

Heres a picture incase anyones interested in seeing what two hours of grueling work looks like.

Wish I had seen your post before I tried! Not gonna take another risk, would rather pay to have someone who knows what theyre doing take care of it.

Just need to replace the backup camera cover now!
