AMG Style engine cover for 2012 e350 coupe?

I'm looking for an engine cover that will say V8 with AMG styling on it. Any thoughts?

On a V6 non AMG engine? Non of the V8 engine covers will fit and the engine is physically different.

Should’ve phrased this a bit differently. I only mean the detachable placard that says v6. I was trying to figure out if there happened to be an aftermarket part that simply said v8.

Just put an S550 badge on the rear . . . how many people look under your hood? You already know its a 6 . . . unless you are trying to fool yourself, why bother . . .

S 5 5 0

V 8

I actually put an E55 AMG labeling on it with v8 biturbo. Figured I’d try and get the whole package you know? I’m having a custom placard built. Also, just so you know I’m not an ignorant person who just puts badges on, I got ECU flash, x pipe, throttle map, KN air filters, and am working on possible twin turbo and cold air intake. Easily pushing 400+ hp.

I think the point might be that you would be far better ahead to just trade the E350 in on an E550. Far less trouble and probably cheaper and more reliable than a heavily modified 350.

Seriously? You ASKED for "thoughts" . . . many think it's a bad idea. It's your car, you can do whatever you want.

All for people modifying vehicles, but unless you add 2 cylinders, please don't add V8 badges. It just undermines all of the good work, those who don't know its not don't care anyway and won't be impressed, those who do will just see it as a reason to knock the good work.

Make it unique, not a knock off of something its not.
