s55K / s550 4Matic / GX470 / A8L /
Thanks ill take some tomorrow in the day light and post em ,
On wheels nxt time i take em off or rotate l try to get the part or model numbers but they look really nice on s550, i already have a s55k that i cant drive half the year almost coz we get alot of snow n bad weather here so this time i wanted 4matic with just the amg package,
Ita funny how everyone is pulling my leg here for the badges but locally no one have said anything i swear i saw alot of s550s with amg package and the badge unless tbat was the w220 model

Yes, the AMG body package on the W220's had the poser rear badge as standard. I understand that the real AMG drivers finally had enough of the posers and convinced MB to stop putting those badges on non-AMG cars, thus there haven't been any since the 220's.

Yea i see now the poser issue that would be embarrassing but the fact that i dont have s63 or s65 badge gives me respect that im proud of what i have "s550"

But this car with '07-'09 tail lights that you encouraged me to buy last week wasn't poser?

None of the W221 S550's with factory AMG body kits came with AMG badges. The one on the back will come off with some fishing line....then Goo Gone to remove the residue. It won't hurt your paint a bit. I highly doubt that the previous owner was trying to hide anything underneath those badges....other than any sense of good taste he may have had at one time. IMO, it looks really lame stacked on top of the 4matic badge.
If you go to any Benz events, don't show up with those badges as they'll have a good laugh at your expense. Even Mr. Badges himself (WPWH28) had enough sense not to stick any AMG badges on his car with the body kit.

That said I don't think these are factory!

Thats what i thought i think only if the car was RWD and had amg package the badge was on it but if it was 4matic and amg package it would always say 4matic badge, the previous owner i know put the amg badge in back and front grill but its ok i guess its not like i have s63 or v8 kompressor badges lol
