Missing Engine Cover Emblem? Solved
So, on the new car the Tri-Star logo that lives on the front of the engine cover was missing. Clearly visible were five pins that used to hold the emblem in place. A Google Search confirmed that I was not the only one...and, this is a hard (impossible) to get part. @JesseB also seems to be missing his....
I checked my C240, E350, and GLS550...each one has a different logo size! Odd, very odd. What is more odd - in my tool cabinet I had an old hood emblem that fell off of my C240 in a car wash....perfect fit! Simply cut off the stud from the ring, get some high temp RTV and away you go!

Has anyone ever painted the engine cover? Might be good alternative to carbon fiber, like matte or semi- gloss black???

Damn you're right - looked at the original vehicle packet when I purchased the car and the mesh was there. I had to glue it back on a year ago when it fell off so that mesh must be an insert and it went bye bye.
