Updates on my amg Forgestar CF5, H&R, MATTE BLACK TRIM, CARBON FIBER ETC.

Hey guys, well my car has come a long way in such little time since i bought her last november. So far i have installed H&R springs, Forgestar CF5'S , smoked side markers, i blacked out the window, door, and grill trim, i have also added a Carbon fiber rear lip. I know there are very little pics of c63's with cf5's so i thought id take some pictures, im not a professional so pardon my sloppy photography skills.

Specs on the car:

Engine:

-Kleeman Manifolds
-Eurocharged Tune
-K&N filters
-Cat Delete

Exterior:

-JL motoring rear CF trunk lip
-Blacked out trim
-Smoked Side Markers
-Forgestar CF5 wheels
-Nitto Invos


Suspension:

H&R springs

Coming soon:

-CF Front lip ( Help me choose one i cant decide )
-CF Rear Diffuser ( Ideas anyone on which one to go with )

BTW: Thanks to ACG for their great customer service when i purchased my forgestars from them.

When i first picked up the car:









How she sits as of today

Looks great, but I'm obviously biased towards blacked out Palladium...

I'll have to rethink my sig, cause I think you took something great and made it better.

We share similar tastes. Very nice!

Looks awesome! Especially the CF5s. I'm tore between the F14 for weight save and CF5 for looks.

I'd like to know the dimension of the rear wheels as well. Also any rubbing issues?

Thanks man

I went with nitto invos 235/35/19 in the front and 265/30/19 in the back

They are not actually color matched, if you see them carefully they have a sort of texture plus they have a bit more bronze color plus they are kinda matte.

19x8.5 in the front and 19.10 in the back i asked peter @ acg for a more aggressive fit on the rear and its perfect looks very flush.

nice!

out of curiosity, what's the offset on your wheels in the rear?

asking because I am running the same wheels and am thinking about dropping the car..

any issues with rubbing? you have h&r's correct?

enjoy the car - gorgeous.

Looks great. I'm not a fan of front lips it looks better without imho. But you can check Roswell's front lip Suvneer. Facelift tails will look good too.

I forgot the offset but i will check my order tomorrow. I do have h&r's it rubbed a bit but i rolled the rears just a tad and no more trouble seriously it was rubbing by less than a mm.


You guys know what this means lol.... Track day tomorrow im taking my go pro. After taking the wife out for dinner i changed to my track setup.

Looks really nice with the wheels, I see you got your C63 from Straight Line, I bought from them before as well.
