Is it possible to get a replacement letter C as I'm currently driving a BLUETEr and not a BLUETEC.

We have already identified that debadging is for refined, suave yet studly love-gods.....

Mercedes themselves reduce-badge now (probably saving a cent or three in the process). With “d” replacing cdi and bluetech.

I’d take it off and I’m not a fan of debadging. Smacks of hiding a smaller engine in the U.K. but strangely in the rest of Europe it’s generally the biggest engined cars that get debadged. Funny old world.

Debadge it is, next time I'm out with the sponges and polish then it's gone.

Hair dryer to warm the adhesive (wait until the management is out...:p) then use some dental floss to side behind the letters / numbers and away you go. Bit of polish and there'll be no evidence they were ever there.

I brought SWMBO a new hair dryer for her birthday, now I have her old model for my Garage activities ;)

I have got one of these but I'm not sure that it will be of the same profile as the one you want. It is off of the boot lid on a 2012 C Class. The gooey bit on the back is not great either. It's yours for the cost of a postage if it is any good to you. Thumbnails below :-
