DC - why did you remove the rear badges?

What's to be bashful about owning an AMG S class?

When someone pulls up behind me I want them to be focused on the sound! As soon as i punch the gas it sounds so sweet. When you pull next to me you can tell by the AMG Brakes and fender badges which is more than enough AMG bling.

It's also much cleaner in the back, all I am missing is the european trunk.

I think all new MBs now have the same trunk. They don't make them different now for different sized plates, they just have one.

So if it makes you fell better, you have a euro trunk!

Why are you posting this? Is the S63 in short supply in AL or something?

Yes, they are in short supply since you mentioned it. It's the first one I've seen. '

The reason I posted it was because I thought that someone might, just might, be interested. But I deleted the post because the thread I started on it in the AMG forum got pulled. I assume I violated some forum rule or something.

good luck with that 6" lip -- my infiniti has 5" and that's on an 11.5" wide rear wheel with an offset of 2.
