My old 240D had too many if yours has too many. She wore them proudly although she's now out to pasture.

Maybe move some to the other side to balance it out some.

I have 2 milage badges and the Meredesshop.com badge I bolt on when going to a GTG. don`t want them getting sand blasted from road debris etc... I like them, wish there was a way to keep them protected besides being in a box most of the year.

I have an old 88 560 SEL with 23k on it, a school teacher in East Hampton who drove it a half mile back and forth to school from 1988-2005 I got out East on Long Island where I live where people are so rich they give away their old cars, I paid 2,000 grand, I paid 200$ in 98 for a barn find 1990 Saab with 890 miles on it, the brand new Pirelli tires were worth more than a grand, and they still had the little rubber hairs, as a Mason out east on a big job in 1995. got the couple was going through a massive divorce that I could hear them cursing each other because she hired a PI and her husband was cheating, this is true, one day after yelling she handed me a title and said get it the F off my lawn, and that how I got my first Porsche because it was a low mile 1988 944 Turbo S Coupe (951) not joking...I'm a collector just like my father was who left me a 1985 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe and a low-mile 1993 Mercedes-Benz 500E, there like brand new, but I also have a Saab Convertable, a JEEP, and an in storage with the other cars the car my dad bought in the 80s, a 1984 Mercedes-Benz 380-Class 380SE, which we drove the f out of, even on a farm track , we drove it as an off-road dirt rally car and that has 6 badges...and I love the way they look, one is a blue Mercedes-Benz North America,2 are 100,000 and 200,000 badges, ones USAF and one is Vietnam Vet, and a Germany Eagle Grille Badge, which is spooky because from WW2 to today there are a lot of German Mercedes-Benzs driving around that have Nazi swastikas on the Hood Ornament Mounted Star Logo from the factory to Nazi swastikas Grill badges and SS badges still on the road...
