It's not a bad "re-pop", but the 5's are a little too wide in the wide spots and they are not beveled as much as the 6.3. The horizontal surfaces of the numbers actually need to be wider so they will have enough "meat" to bevel down to about where they are now.
I'm not sure they "work" on the 171's because they are smoother and more "swoopy" than the more chiseled and angular body lines of the 63. The emblem carries that same design theme.
....but that's not to say I haven't pondered putting MB "V8" emblems on the front fenders... but I decided against it to maintain more stealth.
