@Vic55,

this is a real beauty man! Normally, I think the W212 is nice, but yours comes more close to perfect!

@Auktane,

nice photography! Even a Prius looks good, when you take a pic of it!

Your car looks fantastic! Congratulations! I'm thinking about ordering the AMG flat badge from eBay for my Obsidian Black W212. Does the badge have some type of rubber insulation to protect the surface both outside and inside the hood?

Pics from the eBay listing does not show any protection lining...

Thanks and again, congrats!

I think I mentioned in another thread that there are no 63 springs yet or even 550 for that matter. Im running the 350 springs... there several owners that I reached out to that have done this and few board members here and all have had no issues. I guess our cars are maybe 200 lbs heavier? I have pushed the car to over 150 mph in the straights, high speed benders around 120, and quick turns and the car feels great, planted, and overall just fine. But I will get the 63 springs when they come out. My whole set was only 350 bucks retail (you can get for less) and once I get the other set Ill just sell this one for 200 or 150 dollars. You will be fine.

I didnt get mine from Ebay- I got it from my buddy but go to page one of this thread and I posted the link to the badge at ForMyMercedes.com- you can call him and see what the build is. I had this same badge on my W211 with no issues regarding leaking or scratching of the surface.

Edit: Here is the link:

Thanks very much for the reply. I did check out the link on your previous post and for whatever reason, it seemed like it was the same manufacturer. I'll definitely call formymercedes.com to confirm but like you said, I suspect no issues with leaks or scratches.

Thanks again. As someone mentioned on a previous thread, I don't know enough to do mods but I will look forward to living vicariously through your W212 as the attention to detail is meticulous and your commentary very helpful.
