I think it looks kind of cool, would love to see if anyone has done this. How's the install?

Someone did on the W205 C 63 S I think they had to trim it though maybe just maybe the W213 E 63 S is a perfect fit?

I ordered one and we'll see. From what I can tell there are 2 pins in the back and the original one pops out with a pry tool and the new one just pops back in

Super easy application that adds a good “something different” element!

I just used a plastic trim kit remover with masking tape around edges of original. It popped right out and was easy to swap out for new.

Yup sounds about right.

This badge fits the W213 E 63 S much better the C 63 S E Performance, just in my opinion.

I dunno man, does not look right to me. I have replaced MANY of the hood ornaments, even took out the "regular" one for the "smooth" one on my old W204...the back side of that does not look correct to me. Seems like it is missing a piece, there should be a spring and some other odds and ends....maybe I am wrong.

I have one on my CLS55 AMG W219, but I bought it on Aliexpress. I just found out I don't have a clear picture showing the logo





On Ali, I also found a red/black version and a matte black version

Those variants are nice but I tend to buy only the OEM badges. The non OEM ones and in this instance, cheap chinese ****, tend to fade over time and look like crap.

I have a set of the Affalterbach center wheel caps that came in color. They're now silver. The color fully faded.
