It depends. What hood badge would you put in it's place?

I will probably never find that blue & white ///AMG flat badge that
I think Susanto placed on Benzsport back in the day. He was
gonna do a group order for all this shit. I think it was him..

Total blue balls! I have never seen it since. :(
Plus no one believes me or have seen it for themselves.

check out ebay they have them on there search BRABUS and you'll a a bunch, it a totally different emblem you have to remove the star and bolt the flat one in.

In your searches, if you see the blue and white flat hood badge one with white lettering, specifically, "///AMG", on blue, I will buy you a case of beer or whatever you drink..


Woodchuck Cider here by the way. :)


PS. I didn't dream this badge up by the way. I saw it on Benzsport once.

See, this is why I was interested in the AvantGarde grill
with the STAR in the grill and then the flat badge as well.

The CL style is pretty cool on the cars meant for it, however, the problem is finding a decent Grill with the star. All of the aftermarket ones I've seen make the car look ghetto fab. The star is usually too small in preportion to the grill, and there's usually a verticle chrome bar that runs right through.

Compare:

I have been forgetting to ask this question..


Does anyone know where they can get a custom flat hood badge
badge made? I REALLY want that blue and white AMG
one I saw at one time. Everyone thinks I am on crack or
they couldn't give a rats ass and never respond.


ALSO, I am suprised no one brought this up. Does anyone
know where they can get custom lettering done in chrome?

For example "C230" on the rear. Well in my opinion I think the FONT MB used is gay. But if I had one that said "C-Klasse"
like the europlate that I sport on the front I think it would
look pretty tight. Someone said talk to some hot rodder
guys as they know the hook ups for that shit. I just don't
want my shit turning out to be all Jesse James and shit,
you know?

Gimme a reasonable offer. It's in mint condition. I put it on my car for few days and decided to stick with the original star!
