This is ridiculous!

I saw a C class with a CLK320 badge, can't understand why someone would do that, and saw a C220CDI with an AMG badge! I think these people must have just upgraded from their Corsa with big bore Exhaust!
 
I think what you need is a big engine 320/430/55 and an E200/220cdi badge would be worth a laugh.

You should have seen this merc diesel go:D

I think amg badge with no amg engine is much the same as walking around with a sock in the front of your y fronts, someones going to be very dissapointed!

Pretty certian i read somewhere recently that you cant buy the c320 badge it comes as clk320 and you have to cut the letters to suit, so poss had some body work.

So there's no chance, at all, that this is a genuine CLK 55 AMG?
Bodyshop guys aren't always the brightest, they could have rebadged it for the owner following paintwork on the rear-end.
Alloys are easily changed.

I will admit I know little about the W209, after all the only one I've spent any serious time with is the CLK 63.
 
We know a guy who comes to the drift days we go to and he's got the "5.5 AMG V8" badge on his Nissan 200SX.... but we only approve of it because he actually has that engine in his car :D
 
someone on the M1 put a quad exhaust on his CLK (no back box on the other 2 pipes and then put a Brabus badge on it!

He tried to race me but i'm not going to waste my fuel on a pile of poo
 
It is abit annoying when people put amg badges on their none amg mercs just becuase it has the amg body kit and sometimes it doesnt even have the amg body just the wheels!

a nova or a saxo comes along and see's an amg badged c180 or even c160 and then he beats it and goes on the internet on the nova forum and says to all his pals 'i beat an AMG mercedes today init my turbo kicked in bruv and he was merc'd init.' braap braaaap. lol
My son has a very nice new VW Gti and he is conitinually being 'burnt off' at traffic lights and no doubt these children will go onto their 'Nova' forums and brag about how they smoked a Gti, but so what, who cares and even if it were a genuine CLK 55AMG,Iam positive that there will be immature drivers that will try to out drag it.

Infact read our forumand we have these'Barry Boy' nerds that boast about how they 'raced' against a BMW 9 series and blew it away.

If folks want to stick badges onto their pride and joy then 'what ever floats their boat' ;) Perhaps they dream of buying such a nice car
 
I have a CL55 AMG, the previous owner has put the V8 Kompressor badges on the side. Would you remove them? as I think they look smart and match the chrome around the windows...
 
Fake boobs (push up bras and gel), false teeth, toupees and wigs, unisex heels, etc are no different really from glued on M Sport, V8, GTi and AMG badges. Each to his/ her own. Afficionadoes will always sport the fakes a mile away.

We will always have look alikes and make believes..its the way of the world.

If they're hurting no-one and hating no-one let them be. Each to his own.

Now how many men on the forum have WAGs with boob jobs? Happy when you touch?? Or should this be a fresh thread? My point?? Live and let live.

Now I can order those long desired AMG and V8 badges, not forgetting all the mirror and door chrome plating from fleabay for my diesel CLK...in peace.

And when you get your rear handed to you at the lights by a corsa, let us know :D.
 
Well I saw an AMG-badged M class the other day. It was a white stretch limo. And the AMG badges were on the C Pillars.

Pass the bucket :-)

I personally think it's pathetic to be honest, it's laughable sticking fake badges on their none AMG mercs, specially the wrong way round lol.

Plus It just gives a bad name to AMG

I think you said it in your post maybe 'they dream' so they just dreamers!

Just wanna be's but aint gonna be's!! :D
 
one thing i have noticed in the last month was the number of mercs with duplicate badging..

recently I saw a 2003 s class with v12 badges on the c pillar, the boot lid, and one of the front wings (not on the door guard, but on the metal)

then to top it off, it had s600 badges on the boot and c pillars...

i wish i had my cam that day... but yuk yuk yuk
 
You should see my car

I don`t see anything wrong with that!!!!!S600 is a v12
 
Less is more IMHO.

My Brabus kit came with about 800000000 different badges and stickers for everything from engine bay, boot, wings, windows - you name it. I flogged them all on eBay and left the car looking smooth and beautiful.

I did see one the other day where every sticker/badge in the kit had been put on the car and it looked bad.

But even manufacturers do it with bl00dy V8 badges on the sides and things in the grille and more car park bling than anyone except somebody in Dhubai needs.
