2 crosses
I love the cross on my hood. Looking at it while driving just makes me feel good. Reminds me of everything Mercedes and the age old quality. I'm never getting a flat cross for that reason but I also like the grill with the big cross.

Would it look bad to have both?

These are non-sectarian cars....no crosses...do you mean the Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star?

I'm pretty sure extremetm is referring the 3 pointed star. Beleive it or not some people do not know that it is a 3 pointed star.

It's the MB star. If you google MB on internet and look for history, there is a lot of information on how the company (DAG) came to be and how Mercedes-Benz was created. Part of story is the very early use of the Star logo for the MB company.

Air, Land and Sea is what the three pointed star is the symbol for.

It could be that he has the star on wrong and it looks like a cross but even on wrong it would only look like a Y Oh well, Star or cross I think it looks cool AND EVEN BETTER WHEN IT IS LIT UP.
