I think you need to be more specific with your question. Do you need to remove the smart emplem? Is it a mater of squaring it up?
Are you asking how to stick it on?

There was a product pointed out here for the Brabus emblems that have been falling off.

I have mounted Mercedes emblems two ways. For the grille badge that I mounted on the fuel door, I had read the threads about the Brabus badges falling off, so to make it extra secure, I drilled the door and used epoxy to glue the stem from the inside.


For the trunk badge that I mounted on the glove box, I used a dremel tool to grind off the stem, then used 3M VHB Heavy Duty Mounting Tape (#5952). I bought it directly from 3M's website, but I read on one of the posts here that you can get a similar product from Napa auto parts.
