Rimms: 19 vs 20" - handling..no difference, look: 20's, but maybe with black center.
More pictures: Shure
Tail lights: agree, im trying different things on those.

Yesterday, i was parking my mini in reverse, and i didn't see the door open of the MB, i hit it, forcing the door toward the front

Now, i need a new door. MB sell it unpainted...

2012 C63 AMG Black Series
You successfully managed to take a beautiful edition 1 (not Black) and ruin it with awful rims and I don't know why you were even thinking with the tail lights. The blacked out parts look good except for the bubbles on the side markers. And there is actually lots more chrome with those wheels haha.

I don't mind the tailights however I prefer the stock wheels, yours arent bad but they take away some of cars essence IMO.

One thing I would change is the orange reflectors!

side markers bubble--they are letters, not bubbles.
wheels: too bright, that's why, im thinking in paint the center piece with black. I like the concave look, anyway, the standard ones are too small for that car.

If you see the Black series, they modify the rear fenders and the bumper, but in my car its just a huge empty side. the 19" look just tiny.

But for a black Flat car, definitely, its too munch chrome.

Awww.. that SUCKS!!! can we see pics of the damage?? Just curious...
Nice ride..
although u prob don't like to hear it being that you spent a lot of money on the wheels, but I agree w everyone else as well.. Your wheels are nice, but they somehow take away from the essence of the car...
good luck w your door bro!

No offense, but you should drive a nissan, I don't think that mercedes is appropriate for you... What you did to this little hottie is just horrible and out of taste... I feel sorry for this car... you made it look like a ghetto ford !

for the side markers i used smoke paper. What you see as bubbles, are letters from the plastic.

the wheels are too shinny, agree,

About the door, as today, i have no idea when the Dupont distribuitor will send the paint. I pass by the dealer, and they wished me luck.

I spoke with the body shop, and i have to paint all the driver side , to avoid the difference.The paint its single stage, everything its just one formula (clear, paint, pearl, black and blue, plus activators)

After painted, not a single retouch, sanding, wax, etc.

I never thought about this when i bought it. I have to washed it at least every week. Dust its my new enemy! -

I'm gonna take a picture tonight

HOLY H8ERS BATMAN !!
There is nothing wrong with anyone saying that the mods aren't for them or offering their opinion, but when you say "no offence" and then proceed to tell the guy he should drive a nissan etc... well thats being offensive lol. Come on guys... we're better than that. If you don't like the mods you can say so without adding snarky remarks. The owner obviously likes them and its his ride.

Don't listen to all the negative comments. You have a beautiful ride!

Do what you want and do it because you like it!

With the tail lights you should matte the entire thing out. It'll look awesome on your car.

I've done a few at my shop. It's just a matte clear film specifically made for taillights.

great model choice, but stock rims look better than the chrome ones.
