Headlight with or without AMG logo?

Does anyone notice whether their headlight has an AMG logo towards the top end? My GT R doesn't. GT C apparently doesn't too, at least according to online pics.

GT Roadster?


GT C



GT R

And here I was, thinking that companies couldn't possibly plaster their branding anywhere else on the car. Maybe the next-gen GT will have the headlights in the shape of the AMG logo!

It's a common thing. Every car we have had for years says something; Mercedes-Benz, Intelligent Lighting System, BMW Laser, AMG, etc.

It doesn't. Just poking around insignificant inconsistencies in the line up.

Yeah, I know. It isn't just Benz doing this. Branding is being taken too far. I like my Jeep with its single emblem on the front and (formerly) 2 Wrangler stickers on the side. That's enough branding for a car.

2018 AMG GT-C Roadster; 2018 Range Rover Velar;
2018 AMG GTC roadster (UK) has the logo



I think parts are sourced from different suppliers and may apply to Euro Vs Asia vs Americas in variations.
As an example, I know that the car horn in Asia Pacific are uprated and louder vs Euro/Americas because they get a lot more use.

Both 18 GTC R and 20 GTR had it. Different colors though (Silver littering on black/Black lettering on silver) - not sure if it was a GTC to GTR thing or a PFL to FL thing

Need headlights with the logos BAD. Real bad. Willing to trade/sell kidney. Anyone willing to do a trade for some covid vaccine vials?

Asking for a friend.

Checked my GTR. No logo. But tail lights do have the logo in silver. Either way, adds a nice touch.
