Help needed - w212 flat and FLUSH emblem

Hi guys, I see a lot of threads that are a few months, years older that point to expired links for flat hood ornaments. I just ordered a star grille with black mesh and I need someone to show me where I can currently purchase a flat and flush emblem.

I'd prefer something with blue and silver. Thanks!

Are any of you wanting to maybe change out your luxury grill? I want to change my sport grill to the luxury one and might be interested in buying it off you. I need the distronic one though.

Here are the after pictures (I also had the windows tinted)

Hopefully I no longer look like I am driving to a Perkins buffet.

I used the JTech55 Grill with black mesh. Easily found on Ebay.

Did you find a luxury grill yet? Mine may be for sale after I do the swap. Did you swap to the Sport Grill and then change your mind?

I changed my grill back to the luxury version and placed the original stand-up hood ornament back on the grille. People kept mistaking my car for a C-class... for some reason it really irked me.

Flat Hood Emblem

I ordered mine from Brian Tsai at JBspeed (crazymomo1028@gmail.com)and have been very happy with it. Also the shipping time was much quicker than anything I saw on Ebay. Good luck

Is it a sticker or is it made of metal?

Both? It is an actual metal piece with a metal fitting, then the emblem is a sticker. This is the second one I've had (different cars) and I've never had an issue with either.

Yes, I am still interested if anyone might want to sale the luxury grill. I just need to make sure it's an easy swap with my distronic.

So, I understand you have the star grille now and want to go back to the ugliest distronic grille there is with that square middle piece with painted slats on it?!?

For the looks I did just the opposite.

Yes. Technically it's my wife's daily driver and she likes the upright star and other grill better. (And I'm leaning that way too.)
