LoL, it's Eric's car (mpx220).

I think the star is bolted into the trunk metal so if you removed it, there would be a hole. I know there is one at least for the c-class but I assume it would be the same on a e-class.

Yup, that's Eric's car. I keep stealing his pics
I'm doing the AMG conversion at Sonic, too. I don't mind filling in the holes and spraying the trunk, since I'm going to get the kit painted anyway.

Cool, it looks really good without the star. E63 kitted FTW!

You're the second person to tell me it will look nice w/o the star. I'm really curious to see it now

I'm doing a hybrid kit - E55 front, E63 rear and skirts. Doing a CF front lip, too

It should look just like the photoshop I did so the no star should be cleaaan.

How come you are doing the E55 front? I'm assuming the whole transformation will cost you an arm and leg anyway so why not go with the 63 front bumper and grille?

I hope Eric doesn't get mad because of his license plate. =X

Looks good! Good luck with the kit! I can't wait to see pictures!

Hey Shake, can you post your photoshop pic for me? I'm not sold on the E63 front - the pointed nose and side vents haven't grown on me yet.

I hope not. I just pulled this pic from MyMB. Sorry, Eric!

DOH! My Bad! I see it now. I didn't even pay attention, and just assumed you quoted my post --> that's me. Thanks for doing that! I do like it...hmmm, things to think about.

OK, new poll - now that everyone can see both pics, which one to do?

1) leave STAR!!!
2) Clean it up!!!

I think I like #2 right now
