silly trunk badge

[HIATUS 1]

I was driving south down the I-15 toward Qualcomm stadium yesterday. A shiny black 202 with clear front turn lenses approached from behind. I saw this car in the r/v mirror and thought to myself, "Nice". I let him pass me to get a better look all around the car. Nothing special....until I saw the trunk badge.

M420 ??? Whaa....? I just shook my head.

IMO, those that don't know don't care. Those that care and are knowledgeable will only laugh at you.

How high off the ground was it ?
Gee, maybe it was an ML 420 with a 202 grille.

[detroit202]

thats not as bad as seeing a black mazda minivan stripped of mazda emblems with mercedes emblems on the back and on the front side panels behind the front wheels.

[redc36]

Ya, maybe one of those transformer Benzs not yet released.

Thanks for the laughs, all. I feel better knowing I'm not alone.

Black Geo metro with Mercedes star on hood and AMG badges on the back... oh shit thats mine!!

[davis449]

Saw a C 230K with the 2 and the 3 switched around yesterday. C 320 Kompressor?! I think not...fucking poser!

[FreeStyler]

I saw a CL 84 in Cali...LOL.......









OH WAIT, I think it was real..

[Jbizzyc43]

[benz90220]

i bought a 2006 Lexus LS, removed all lexus badging and put a chrome mercedes star on the hood and the S55 AMG on the rear, hmmm this will pass off well as a mercedes (lexus LS COPIES mercedes S soooo much) loll

I couldn't have said it better. I saw an E32 AMG...eh, it was good for a laugh. It was in reality an E320 with AMG rims....and badge.

[iwhocorrupts]

I saw a BMW 3 series with an AMG badge today..

[bish0p]

i saw a ford geo with a bentley emblem on the hood and back..i didn't know whether to life or cry cuz that's just so sad.

[benzofanatic]

it makes me wounder if people are really that dumb that they would actually believe the little geo is a Bentley, or the VW is a BMW.

[crazy00c230k]

the other day i parked next to a 3series that had brabus badges on the trunk and b pillars, and lorinser and "V8 carlsson" badges on the fenders

[Abuimad]

i saw the worst crime ever once, a w210 with m powered badges on it

[lewda]

i remember one time that i saw like an old old oldsmobile or something, that had all the badges taken off, and in their places were all Jaguar badges....it was tight.

[JConnX]

haha M420... genious!

[Fizzle]

So Tell Me, Honestly, Beause I HAve Been thinking About Taking Off The 0 On My C280. You Know So It Will Read Like "C28". Just To Be Different. I AM NOT Going To Put ///AMG On It But I Just Wanted A Different Look Instead Of Completely Debading It. So Tell ME Would I Be Wrong? Or "Posing"

[Proven Guilty]

i think it would look sweet with chrome trim from auto zone around the tail lights and trunk line with the bolt on chrome exhaust tips, and a C43 badge instead.

just remember, chrome gets you home!

[rman]

yeah, the other day i saw this silly car with "s65" badges on it. the guy must of spent a fortune on the badges and the silly ricer brakes. The calipers were huge red units and said "//AMG" and it had this not-normal body kit. Not to mention the the rotors were all damaged with holes and shit.

weird thing is he was some hot-shot pulling into the MB of SD lot.

/naive stupidity

Are You Being Sarcastic? Maybe I'll Start Another Thread And See What Kind Of Responses I Get.

[trymonlam]

hmm... come to think of it, do anyone remember a old thread about a member here saw a old ford fiesta with 30 or so of MB and AMG emblems around/in it? there was pictures, too.
damn. can't find that thread.
