No you run a piece of masking tape under the emblems and mark each letter before you remove them.

So, you re-used your emblems? How long did it take to clean them up? Did you scuff them up prior to painting?

Yes I re-used them. I wont lie it took sometime to remove the old tape and re-tape them. I scuffed them until the shine was off each one and painted them and waited a few days to put a couple of coats of clear on them.

Jangy,

I used a shopping service in Japan (www.crescent-shop.com) to order mine.

I remeber when you did all that. Sounds like it was a pain in the ***, but you did it right!!

I use Google translate to help me read the website.

I don't think he sells on ebay as far as I know. He sells through some other online store website in Japan I think.

I have only purchased items from him by going to his store directly in Tokyo.

He is not responsive via email.

He might reply to you. I am not sure.

But others have tried emailing and have not received a response.

That's great you got an answer! Most people have said they didn't get a reply.

But I guess it wasn't the one you were looking for.

Love the black badges. Once you start with the black car, it seems that the more black the better the look.
Can't wait to add my new black wheels soon.
Thanks for sharing the pics.

I've only purchased the WALD LED kit from him.

I haven't bought the AMG emblem round hood badges, but I've seen them in person and they look good. A bit expensive though.

I had a shop in Bangkok do the black chrome badges for me. Much cheaper than buying them from this shop in Tokyo.



I live in China and the US and I travel throughout Asia. So whenever I go to Tokyo I'll visit his shop.

You can always use a Japanese shopping service. I think you can find some on the internet.
