How to change the rear emblem of a Mercedes CLA from standard chrome to sporty

Model: Mercedes CLA C118, X118 - Years 2019-2025
Part: Manufacturer emblem

In this video, we will see how to replace the standard chrome rear emblem of a Mercedes CLA with a sporty one. To remove the emblem, we do not need to use tools that can damage the paint, such as screwdrivers or metal tools in general. We put body shop tape under the emblem and then remove it with dental floss, which will not damage the paint. We will remove the adhesive with a soft brush mounted on a drill. In the meantime, we will have obtained a new emblem that we found on AliExpress where we can choose between black or silver with code 1005004776124685 at a price of 5.02 euros (free delivery for purchases over 10.00 euros). We clean the bodywork perfectly and apply the emblem with double-sided tape, slightly heating it with a heat gun, and that's it.
