The car still looks great, what you like is your style. I did notice the badges, they are aesthetically pleasing. However, it would be great if you were packin a whole lotta ponies under that hood. Keep up the mods and post pics with everyone

CLK 500 and AMG badges are lookin a little wierd together.. you may wanna drop one off.. didnt u get the amg suspensions along with the amg package, because the car doesn't look that low.. anyway, nice ride with the tints... also you may wanna raise the silencer a little up.. would look much better...

Hmm...the AMG Badge is fine, as long as you have AMG products on your car. I have the badge in the back of mine, and I find it ok since there are AMG rims on it. Saw a bunch online with the V12 badge in back, but didn't see one that said SL600 ///AMG. Maybe later on or so, I might remove everthing in the back and only keep the V12 Badges on the sides. Man, my two favorite visual aspects of that car are the V12 Side Badges and the V12 Shifter.

Eh, its just a visual modification. Not saying you or anything, but I can't stand those people who dish out the insults just cause someone badged their car as an AMG. I read a post a month ago where someone trash talked and insulted someone who put an ///AMG Badge on a C280 or something. It was ridiculous. The Kompressor badge is a different story, that you should remove. But the ///AMG...keep it...Especially if your car is sporting the AMG body kit and wheels. As long as ///AMG comes after your car model (320, 500, 600), then it refers to upgrades. Only when you apply the complete badge of an AMG vehicle on your non AMG car...then you are flaunting what's not really yours. I didn't badge my car as a 73 nor did you as a 55. The following badge only represents the original AMG options/upgrades on our vehicles.

I say keep the AMG badge, you have every right to.

As long as you don't mimic the model designation (for example, badging it a CLK 55 ///AMG), I don't really see a problem.

But the people who you're fooling are the ones who don't know which model is supposed to have an AMG badge.

I never put it on to fool anyone, I simply liked the look of it on the back and meant it to signify the modifications I did to the car. If I wanted to fool other driver's (which I did not), I would've badged it a 73 (or a 60). But Chi, does it really bother you that people put badges on their cars? I really could care less if someone with a 320 badged their car as a 600...let them have some fun. It is not my goal to criticize you Chi, so please take no offense, I just diagree and want to explain why I believe it is ok.

I hate it when people try to make a "lesser" car look like a more expensive one. The AMG badge carries prestige, but people think they can add that prestige and illusion of performance by tacking on a $10 badge. But in your case, I think it just looks odd to have an AMG badge on a 600 beause AMG didn't make 600 AMGs.

On a different note, do you have pics of your AMG upgrades?

Will make a cardomain page when all is done. I just think it looks very slick when the back says SL600 AMG. You are entitled to your own opinion and so am I. We can debate further, if you wish...
