Red face Hood Star... HELP!!!!!

Hi guys/gals. some kids must have messed around my hood emblem. when i came out to the car, my hood star was leaning towards the front of the car. when this happened before, i was able to just lean it back and it would be fine. but this time, it's different... the star is loose as heck.... i checked it under the hood and it seems like the spring is loose. so... with ur kind help... is this a fixable problem or am i doomed? wat 2 do wat 2 do. thank you.

Check Ebay

If you don't mind the wait, check Ebay.

List price is $24.90
Shipping is $3.30

Is that a DIY?

The day mine goes, I'll probably just go for the flat decal.
I have to admit the star ornament makes the car look good.

My car didn't come with a CD changer, plus it had COMAND/NAV but no CD and I found both on eBay. While I was looking for those, I must have seen thousands of Mercedes parts on there, OEM and after-market. It's definitely worth a look.

My MB was in a wreck, I ordered nearly all of my parts from an ebay store.

Hood, Grill, bumper cover, Fenders...

Although fitment wasn't the best. I did save myself about a 1000$

You can buy loads of stuff.

hood from dealer - 550$
Brand new oem hood from ebay - 220$
Oem grill from dealer - 300$
Ebay - 80$


And so on.
