Custom Mercedesshop.com Badge anyone?
I'm testing the waters based on this thread thread to see if there is enough interest in a custom Mercedesshop.com grille badge to warrant a group purchase. In the referenced thread, prices mentioned being in the 'high teen's' depending on the design and if we could put together an order of 50+.
When we figure out a design and get a price, I'll order 4 right off the bat plus, I would be willing to manage this endeavour. Here are some samples of custom grille badges. C'mon gang, whaddya ya think?

I'd certainly buy 2 of them. Of course we need to make sure that we get Mercedessops permission if we want to use their name.

I'd prefer a window cling, saving my grill for mileage badges. Otherwise, I could see myself getting hooked on adding more badges
Are there any more of the window clings? If no chance on the window cling, then I'd certainly pony up for one grill badge if under $20. This place is like a second home.

You can count me in for two. One for the 240D and one for my toolbox.
The keystone and two flag "Jaguar" designs are my favs. |

I'd be curious about some badges myself.
(at the risk of hijacking the thread...What about front license plates?)

Badge Designs
Just a thought but when I had my first business I went to the local art school and spoke to a couple of instructors who happily put this in front of their classes as a project to work on.
I ended up using the logo they created in my business and gave them a $100.00. For this badge though I would think the bragging rights to having a badge that you designed all over the country on a bunch of Mercedes might be a pretty good incentive. As long as you make it clear that in the end none might be used and that the final decision is up to the members of the forum (good cop, bad cop) then you comeout a winner no matter what. p.s. I'm in for a couple myself...

Hey Super count me in for three badges. Will someone take on this project? I would be really awesome if we can get the website's permission to do this and pull it off successfully.
