The 63 badge just signifies engine size like the "V8 Kompressor" and "V12 Bi-Turbo" badges for example, difference is AMG made the logo a little more flashy than they used to.
I'm really very impressed at the work that went into it to get such a carbon copy of the original badge, i agree it would be hard to get a nice integrated look on the SLK, it seems the 63 is larger then the ED10 badge so it would be a tight squeeze on the wing/fender area and i think it would look properly daft on a light color.
Agree it fits into the 'vain' category but then so does many things like adding Kleemann / RennTech / V8 / V8 Kompressor badges to the SLK, its purely a looks thing.
