Just got the badges done.
My rear lights and front markers are also smoked.
dsb, I have lots of things on my mind that I would like Sinister Customs to do, but will think them through. I really wanted to do the handbrake (the black part) in suede, but it's impossible to get that little piece off.
I also made myself a logo with my initials that will go on the headrest.
Among other things, you all will just have to wait.
I would have done this a LONG time ago, but just recently decided this car would be a keeper.

Ahh, a "wet" SLK55!....And that dirty engine bay! 
I'm kidding. I like the red calipers. I painted them on my RX-7, der Kleemann machine's calipers are next! (the blower install, etc. was supposed to be done this week but Kleemann sent the wrong oil return lines & LSD. Arrgh, another week
).
Dinko, I like the suede too. Pretty nice.
Cheers,

Why black logo's? To flow with the black wheels that are coming in a little over a week.

But if you pull at it hard enough from the rear, it will eventually pop off when the glue gives in.
