Look cleaner and easy for waxing job.
To make the job more easy and less messy, heat up with hair dryer to de-activate the adhesive before using dental floss and Goo gone after all before waxing.

I am just curious to know why would you want to remove the badges?
My 06 R350 did not have the 4matic badge. I made sure the dealer order and install it for me. I paid for it, I want to make sure it is advertised.

Cancel the order. I am sure rickpo would not mind to you send the "4matic" for free.

Yasmin,

I've always felt it was cool to not advertise what I have with respect to power and handling ability. Since Rs, especially the R500s, are so rare, I feel good overtaking big, honking V-8 SUVs and leaving them in the dust. I'd love for them to believe I'm driving either an R350 or an R63. I don't plan to upgrade my exhaust tips to the R63 versions. Those in the know will be incited to tailgate or, in the case of the POl-ice, pull me over thinking that I'm a hotrodder in an AMG.
