I haven't seen folex on here in ages. You should look at eBay or there is folex's geocities order page link higher up on this page.

Don't take it personally but why would you pose as though you are driving an E55? If a Neon SRT4 or similar car beats you it will post it beat a E55 not a E550...Buddy if you truely wanted an AMG you should have bought one...everyone has a right to their opinions cause this is a free country but so do people like me...who believes one should be happy with what they choose and not pose as though they drive something else. I don't go putting C63 on my car. Do as you wish but true enthusiast will laugh at you. FOOD FOR THOUGHT

You don't put C63 on your car because its a C32

*sigh* bdnsmn, I hope you understand that being a poser like that makes people dislike you.....

If you don't own a real _____ (insert name here), don't badge it like it does. I don't wear fake rolex's, or say I live in a big house, because I don't. Badging a regular MB with the AMG logo because you have the AMG bodykit and wheels doesn't mean you have a real AMG, and many people will notice. Just our opinion though, it's your car and drive it how you like it.

You mean this one

Worse yet, his is a 2009 model and they haven't had E55 since 2006, so technically, it should be an E 63?????

Next you know he'll be posting qtr mile times of 11.75 at 118 MPH with that thing. I guess if you can't dazzle the motoring public with brilliance of what you drive, you baffle them with

mkonei · 09-29-2009, 09:12 AM

i didnt even think about that when i read it Newzchspy.....nothing like putting a badge on your car to make it three years older. thats a definite fail!!!!!!

[/b]

Yeah, that jumped out at me right away!! Why make it older??? But then again, I go back to the days when they were turning 6 cylinder Mustangs into Cobras and Firebirds & Formulas into Trans Ams and V-6 Camaros into Z-28 or SS models. It will never end as long as "poseurs" exist

Nowadays its the EX Civic that is the NEW Si model or V-Tec!!! (or the Lancer Evolucion or the Subaru WRX Sti). BUT why go back three years??? HUH??? Rebadge I say, Rebadge!!

ajc7755 · 10-01-2009, 04:40 PM

I'm assuming these are still being sold because the website is still up, am I correct? I just don't want to order them if he has stopped making them.

Either this is bdnsmn and he took well to your critism, or someone reused his photo.

Afraid so.

Those "in the know" will see the many tell-tell signs.

I just ordered from Folex a set of 3.2 AMG badges this past Thursday. It came in the mail yesterday.

I believe he said he is currently out of the 5.5 badges.

Also what I feel about posers

Did he happen to mention if he was going to get more made?

His email did not mention if he is making any more 5.5 badges.

ajc7755 · 11-04-2009, 03:11 PM

I ordered my 5.5 about 3 weeks ago. Maybe I got one of the last ones. They look great on my car BTW.

Phil C55 · 11-04-2009, 03:55 PM

I just had contact with him and yes he is sold out of the 5.5 badges.............for now. He has more coming in a couple weeks, I reserved a set, I think it's a nice touch.

Sure, my car just got done at the dealership so they cleaned and detailed it very nicely for me. I'll try and take a few pictures tomorrow and post them up.
