Hood Star

I have a traditional Standing Star on my hood that interfers with my car cover and wish to have a flat Mercedes hood badge. What the part number(s) for the flat emblem?

I did the same flat star upgrade with the standing star on my comfort trim.

Look in eBay for "W212 hood star"... genuine made in China items.

You know you can just lay it down when you put the cover on, right?
