Blacked Out AMG Badges
Does anyone know where I can get black "AMG", "S65", and "V12 Bi-Turbo" badges at? I looked online and on EBay and I cant find them. I have seen a ton of E55's with the blacked out badges but I cant find them for the S65. Or do the E55 guys just paint them flat black on the car? Thanks guys!

You can always try plasti dipping your emblems. It's very durable and easy to do (search the forum there's a lot of info on how to do it for emblems in particular) and the best part is if you don't like it, you can peel it off.
I did it on my friend's S550 badging and it was incredibly easy.
I figure most of the people you see with it either do the plasti dipping method or you have a body shop paint your emblems. I don't really like the latter method because you have to remove your emblems (vs. plasti dipping you do it while on the car). Whenever emblems are replaced on the fenders or trunk I can almost always see when it's not put on correctly. It's so hard to put the emblems back in the exact correct place that I find it counterproductive to have them painted only to be put back in the wrong position.
