Best AMG Flat hood emblem?

Can someone please tell me which is the best (quality + design + easy to install) AMG flat hood emblem? I am looking for one for my 04 E55. Where can I buy it?

Thanks.

I've got three, all bought on e-bay.

This link show two of the ones I have - the one I like best, and which is presently on my car, is the smaller one:

http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZdelraychris

The third one I have, that I don't car for, is halfway down the page on this link:

http://stores.ebay.com/CWelchMotorsAcc

They all go on with 3M two-sided "emblem" tape that I got at Pep Boys.

I emailed Mario last month and he answered right away saying he'll have a new supply of emblems this fall. Fire him a note and he'll put you on the list.

Mario's - $149- (comes with a post, available "in the fall")

Mine from E-Bay - $20- (no post, available today).

Only difference is the $129- metal post, and the fact that you have to wait until the fall to get the $149- one.

I just found the same emblem on EBAY. Look at it its exactly the same. It's only $10.00 free shipping. I thought about buying all 99 of them and selling them on these forums for $100.00. But then I felt bad, so I decided to share it with everyone. Here is the LINK:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=300024385585

For everyone who spent $150.00 Oh well. Just buy another one and you got 2 for $160.00.

It's looks the same.......except the mario one is chrome......and the $10.00 one is a mustard one????

.....I think the mustard one has got to be an acquired taste!

each to their own I suppose.

Nope, its the same material as the E-Bay one, just has a nice clear coat on it as I described near the end of this string of postings on the topic:

Agree. Wait for the "grey" ones to come available again (seller is "delraychris" and he will eventually have these again up on E-Bay)

Thanks
