Where can I buy Benz emblem for front caliper?

I just lost one emblem on the front left caliper this morning. Hear a noise while I was driving but thought it was something on the road.

I called the dealer to just buy the emblem but was told I need to buy a complete caliper. Not really worth it. Where can I just buy the emblem (see pictures on left missing and right side with emblem)

Thanks

sadly... i think the issue will be attaching the emblem to the existing caliper, even if you find one on a wrecked/totaled vehicle off an insurance scrap lot. And that's likely the only place you'll find one if one isn't available on ebay. And likely, the caliper is worth more complete, than missing the emblem, so they want to sell it whole

It's an extreme temperature item, the caliper, so I presume the means of its attachment can withstand these temperature changes. Though it seems like there are two holes that receive a dowel or peg from the emblem to keep it in place.

if the C300 emblem is identical, then you should snag this for $50 plus shipping

So the link for the 2010/11/12 E350 caliper with the black caliper emblem does not look the same as yours?? It looks identical to me.

Don't you drive a 2010 E350?

Yes, the 2010/11/12 E350 caliper with the black caliper emblem is identical, the one for the C300 is not.

It is just difficult to believe that part alone cannot be found

Found this on previous posts from 2008 It is a decal but it might work until you need to replace the caliper. http://www.xenonmods.com/newallcaliperdecals.htm Found on google.

It is disappointing to find that the caliper emblem (the black 'insert') is not available as a seperate part from Mercedes.

So it comes with the brake caliper?

How much would that be thru MB?

I know the glass covering the cluster is $7000+ as it comes as a part o f cluster assembly only.

Hi Arrie!

I believe that is the case, yes.

Not sure. Added to that, I've never changed a caliper either, so would have to pay for labor (since I'm buying the whole assembly, might as well fit it).
Pretty frustrating that a cosmetic piece like the caliper cover / emblem cannot be (easily) refreshed.
