Where does the brabus emblem go? Left or right?

I Debadged the E320, and I'll put the Brabus script on the trunk (I have real brabus front and rear add on lips and 2 (lol yes just 2) real centercaps so I'm not posing ).

Question is: where to put it?

I think it should go on the left.

Why not on top of the star right in the middle...j/k...I think it will look good if you put on the left side.

I would put it on the right, even though you already debadged you ride. The AMG badge goes on the right to show modification and so I think the Brabus should. This is just my opinion though because the left side is for model designation.

Jimmy, I'm pretty sure its Brabus standard on the left but its just a matter of preference I guess.

Of course it's a matter of preference when you get down to such a minor decision. IMO, I would've left the E320 badge on the left and put the Brabus one on the right.

Oh Doc, actually, I think the original W210 EV12's never had a badge - why not the centre badge instead (like the pic - I'm sure its an official pic):

depends on how you wish to badge your vehicle.

there is someone driving around Boca (South Florida) with an old body style Brabus CL600, dark blue, with Euro plates (saw it this morning).

his is badged, from left to right:

CL600 ________ BRABUS

According to Brabus, the trunk script should be placed on left side. But of course, it all comes down to personal preference.

But hey I REALLY like that upside-down idea. I'll give you mad props if you do it!! lol Do it Mike

(below is statement from Brabus)

a Mercedes-Benz must have visual cues
distinguishing it as a BRABUS vehicle in order to wear the trunk script.
Body kit, exhaust, and most importantly wheels. The script is usually
placed on the left side, as the motor displacement designation is placed on
the right, e.g. 3.8, 6.1, 7.3S.
