Default Need new trunk emblems

Hey guys, I am new to this forum as I have just acquired a mint 2000 S500 with 28K miles. My question is where can I buy new OEM "S500" and "MBZ Star" emblems for the trunk? The car I bought came with Gold emblems and the car is silver, not to my liking at all. I looked on ebay but came across aftermarket oem-like emblems only.

Thanks

I guess you are right, but at the very least the mercedes star emblem needs to be on the trunk. Even that is gold, yuck!

But aren't the ones on ebay imitation emblems. Have you ordered emblems off of ebay before?

Most of the E-Bay stuff is Chinese imitation junk, and if you get it from a junk yard it wont have the two sided tape, the trunk star is held on with a screw

Exactly why I want OEM stuff. Do you know how to remove the trunk star?
