I think you should de-badge it. Stealth mode .

'CLK32AMG' might be too ricey. They might think you took off the '0' and added the 'AMG.'

That's what I'm going to do. I'm already de-baged and I will keep it that way, at least for the trunk. Thinking about V6 Kompressor for the fender though.

Now the question is, is it ok for me to put on an AMG badge? Not that I want to, but it's a valid argument for the poser thread.

So as they say in the ///AMG forums (poser threads); No Engine, No Badge. Wes will have the engine, will the ///AMG boys still consider him a poser?

That's right. Badge adds weight. We all need to find ways to shed the poundage to make the car goes faster Of course an AMG engine doesn't hurt either. for Wes!

Yeah, but then you add the engine and it'll bring up a whole 'nuther round of "Yeah but it wasn't an AMG built car" or "Yeah, he has the engine but he doesn't have... blah blah blah"

In the end, it's your car and do what ever the hell to it you want. Personally, I think CLK32K with the V6 Kompressor fender badges is a great idea because you do in fact have the 32 engine but it is not an actual AMG 'car' per say. If I decide to Kleemann SC mine I'll do something similar (500K, not 50K as I firmly believe only AMG's under the hood should get the dual digits).

De-badged with V6 Kompressor fender badges is also cool. What ever blows your hair back mate - you know that whatever you do you'll have the support of all your MBWorld 209 brothers (that is unless you put a Black Series or iVtech badge on it...)

This is the engine out of the C32K, it's the same motor. You're more than welcome to come by. Have you been able to contact TVT? Their website is down and they are no longer a sponsor on the forum.

Interesting fact, the C32 and the CLK320 come with the same headers from factory.

Really? I would have thought that the boys at MB would have tossed on a better breathing set for the forced induction.
