Looking very sporty Perry. That will blend very nicely with your brushed aluminion interior. I'm getting them tomorrow.

Does anyone know if the coupe pins just screw on and screw off to change? I cannot find this answer in any of the threads (no pun intended).

Mort

Since the coupe only has front doors there is a good chance the door pins will screw off/on like the front doors of the sedan. Just give it a try. What harm can it do?

justthebest

Coupe pins are screw on / off, just like the front doors on sedans. Order the appropriate part, and screw it!

pcho

Jmueller, they are screw on.

jmueller

Thanks. I appreciate it!

ZephyrAMG

They are $32 each now

Anybody just do the fronts and not the rears? Would it be tacky? I don't feel like messing with the rears if they are that hard to do...

whoover

Look up tacky in the dictionary and there's a picture of a C63 with different pins front and rear.

deadfission

Hm.... I looked and couldn't find the picture under 'tacky'. Are you using the Merriam-Webster Official Dictionary??

I need ebay knockoffs STAT.

the parts # doesn't work on getmercedesparts?

Remove the 'A' at the beginning.

ZephyrAMG

Well played. I guess here goes changing all 4...😒

Ingenieur

Look up 'one who uses the word tacky to describe what someone else does to their car'...pompous

Like anyone here is the arbiter of taste lol
It's a plebian car not a Ferrari

Seriously though, who in the eff uses the word 'tacky' in a serious fashion?
Seriously
Pretty highfalutin lol

ZephyrAMG

We all are good at being others critics I guess...well you know what I meant....I should of said "not of AMG in Affalterbach stature"

BTW is it just me or do those CF ones pictured above look ridiculous, out of place and way too long defeating the whole purpose???

Too much CF in unnecessary small places looks "TACKY" IMO....how about that for use of the word??

whoover

To reduce the conversation to its basics --
ZephyrAMG: "Would it be tacky?" (his word)
Me: "Yes"

Ingenieur

so we have 2 upper crust, high society fancy pants

deadfission

Well lets be real..... we are talking about a 70k car that is considered to be "luxury super sport". In that regards, aren't we all pompus *******s that drive AMG's instead of Hondas?

Ingenieur

my car cost <45k with 12k miles, full service history and 2 years of CPO
heck, people around here drive pickup trucks that cost more
I bought it for the engineering history of AMG
I like that to the masses it looks like a plain Jane c-klasse

deadfission

Your car cost <45k when YOU bought it. It's still a 70k+ car. Just like when you buy a Aston/Maser/Bently/Ferrari for 60k now, it was still a 150k+ car at its inception. The point I was making was that with a car of this caliber we're all technically "those guys" that normal honda/toyota drivers think are flashy. From that perspective, does it matter if he only does 2 door pins? Probably not, the average person is still gonna see AMG and think you're an *******.

Illegal Machine

^^ This is 100% correct.

I just came out of a 2012 300 SRT which is far more luxurious than my 2010 C63. Payments are about the same. My loan term didn't move.

People think I bought a damn Lambo.

Ingenieur

MY car is not worth 70k
a 2009 in 2013 is NOT worth 70k, so therefore present day worth is NOT 70k, ibid, not a '70k car'
I can't see myself blowing 70k on ANY car, it's a consumable commodity, like a pair of shoes, lol

most people have no idea what ///AMG is
they probably think it's the dealership badge

Mort

All the Posers know...LOL

Ingenieur

Does AMG have a 'model designation delete' option?

I bet the posers don't know what the letters stand for
" 'All Mighty Gawd' help me " is what the passenger exclaims when launched

whoover

With all the cosmetic mods discussed here, some sublime and some ridiculous, the one that's controversial is the door pins?
