Since I'm getting trunk repainted I was wondering

Since I'm getting trunk repainted I was wondering if I should de-badge 100% or leave the AMG and E55 and just remove the MB star? please help

The star leaves holes. Like OP, I was getting my trunk repainted, so took the opportunity to shave the trunk. I've debadged all my cars. Love the clean look.

I like the star-only look.

IMO it looks terrible withouth the Star. I'd keep the Star and debadge everything else. Looks perfect that way IMO. Then again, I'd be proud of the AMG badge and wouldn't mind having that and the model designation back there either.

Actually looks really clean debadged. I think I prefer Tal's with just the star, but still both trunks looks schweet!

How do you remove the star on the trunk? I tried the dental floss method and it worked for everything but the star..

It's actually fastened to the trunk. You'll have to remove the interior trim and it will leave holes. You'll need to back it and fill it. Sand and pant to remove the star.
