Best Source for Flat Hood Badge

Hello fellow W212 owners. I am seeking a reliable resource for a flat hood badge on my preface lift 2010 E550 to replace the current star. I had purchased one via Amazon and the USPS dropped the ball somewhere on it's journey to my house (yes refund en route). Any recommendations. Looking for the black style since I have a white car but would also consider the traditional blue. Thanks in advance.

I suspect your wheel center caps are also traditional blue. If so, then why go black on the hood when blue will match your wheels?

Forum member and sponsor JBSPEED may still offer hood badges that sit within the hood divot, in both blue and black, IIRC. Send him a Private Message to ask for his links to view. Or look through his sales thread... https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...ment-45mm.html

Of course, any MB dealer offers the flat badge that overlaps to hide the divot. In either Blue or black.

Needless to say I don't make them anymore.

I tried ordering one from Amazon (china seller) and it never arrived.

There's some information in this thread https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...-question.html
