Overview

When you run a Mercury V12, people notice. There’s a certain pride that comes with hearing that big engine settle into its idle after a long run, or watching the water peel away as the boat rises onto plane. A Mercury V12 isn’t just horsepower — it’s confidence, reliability, and the sense that your boat is ready for whatever the day throws at it.

That’s why the small details matter. The Mercury 8M0178229 V12 Badge Decal brings back that clean, unmistakable look that tells everyone exactly what’s powering your boat.

Performance & Practical Benefits

It’s easy to underestimate a decal until you see how much a damaged one stands out. This badge brings your cowl back to its rightful look — sharp, clean, and unmistakably Mercury. The adhesive grips tightly to the curved cowl surface, staying put through high humidity, fast runs, and rough-water slams.

The finish is designed to resist fading, peeling, and chalking even after years in the sun. When you step aboard and glance back at your engine, that crisp V12 badge gives the whole boat a more complete, intentional look. It feels like taking pride in your gear — the same way you feel when the engine fires up instantly on a cool morning.
