V8 Kompressor Badges

Does anyone know a website in which the V8 Kompressor badges could be purchased from? Because I want to add these badges to the sides of my SLK55. Thanks in advance!

I'll do that when I have an off day, I purchased my car from a secondary dealer. In the mean time anyone know of any online website that sells badges?

I looked on ebay and it was cheaper to go to the dealer.

Approx. $50 per side at the dealer.

Question Is your SLK55 supercharged?

Or are you going to do so? To each his own, of course, but imho I feel that if it's not, then you probably shouldn't get them. That falls into the "poser" category, and I guarantee you that people will give you a hard time about it. Now, there wouldn't be anything wrong with clipping off the "kompressor" part and leaving "V8" if it can be done cleanly...


Best regards,
