The W222 never came with "Designo" script on the cupholder lid. If you put that on there, anybody with knowledge of these cars would call you a poser. The Designo buttons are on the seatbacks at upper back level in cars that are actually Designo.

You do realize that you were replying to an almost 3 year old post on the W222 board, right?

Of course there isn't a problem. It just looked like you got a little disoriented on the board for a moment, that's all. I'm sure that any posers that happen to stumble upon this thread again in a few years will be happy know that there is an option to pick up a stick-on Designo badge to set their car apart from all of the other Designo interior cars that never came with a stick on badge for the cupholder from the factory. Then to really top it off, some chrome stick-on trim for the wheel arches and B-pillars would really be the bomb....and I hear gives that car a 5-10 hp bump.

BTW, the OP hasn't visited this board since 2018. Unfortunately he probably won't see your top tip here.

i don't even have to look to see that your 3300 post are probably all useless garbage, just because I'm newly registered to this forum doesn't mean I'm new to forums. im aware how they work.
You clearly have a problem with reading comprehension as i stated twice, that i posted the info i found for anyone else that would be looking for it in the future..not the OP

And the emblem is a factory part on certain cars.

Location, location, location. Your pics are from a previous gen CL. This is the W222 S-class board where the Designo script was never attached to anywhere in the car except the front seat backs.

You are making a heck of a first impression! I'm sure your knowledge of badging from former models is going to come in very handy on this board. For that, I thank you in advance kind sir.

am i the one that started this thread in the W222 sub-forum?

i know where the pictures are from...you must be slow.

there's a saying i should have adhered to earlier. Never argue with a fool, they will only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience

My 2018 S560 with Designo "flowing lines" wood trim has a "Designo" emblem above the cupholder. Have seen it other cars that have Designo wood trim. It is kinda tacky, but it's completely hidden by my cup-holder cell-phone-holder and a water bottle.

It looks like this, though my car has the white and black exclusive Nappa seats:

My 2020 S560 cabriolet has dizzy new emblems on the carpet. I've often wondered if you can buy those as replacement if they get damaged.

Well I stand corrected. I looked at lots of W222 Designo interior cars before making my purchase and not one of them had the Designo badge on the cupholder lid. Perhaps they only come on the ones with the lined wood trim?

That could be; I can't say one way or the other. Candidly, I wish it wasn't there!

Edit: To be clear, I don't mean to suggest the emblem comes with Designo leather interior, just Designo wood trim.

Yes, the wood trim selection determines whether you get the designo emblem on the cupholder cover. The carpet and seat backs have the emblems on my car.

Nope. Also with plain Black Piano Lacquer Trim as well.
