Wrong Badging on CLK

I'm not even sure why I care, but my neighbor just got a used CLK 430 and the badges are on the wrong side. (sorry I didnt take a photo) Its a nice looking car and I assume the guy doesn't know what the badges are supposed to look like. So my question is, would you say anything to him? I'm not trying to be an A-hole and only want to say something because he just got it and maybe he can get it fixed if he points it out to the seller.

Yes... be a neighbor. Save him/her the embarrassment.
Why is this even a question? That angel on your shoulder should have forced you to say something.
Or was it that the devil on the other shoulder that was laughing with you told you to let the comedy continue?

The angel on my shoulder really wanted to say something, but I don't want to it to come off wrong since I assume most people do a fair amount of research before buying a new car.

The badges are straight, just on the right side of the car, not the left...maybe he got it from a confused BMW dealer.

Whatever there's gas in...
That's nothing! At least YOUR neighbors don't have a w204 badged as a CL300!
