Hey All! I'm Brett. I just picked up my C63 sedan the other day. Black on Black. I absolutely love it and heard that this is the right place to come to whenever I need help with something....
So here it goes:
I am looking for gloss black rear emblems (C63, AMG and Benz symbol)
I am looking for a black grille
I am looking for 2 rear tires used or new just to have
I will post pictures as soon as I figure out how to! lol Any help is greatly appreciated Thanks

Hi Brett, welcome to the AMG club. It is a great place to get help, which is usually found via the Search function. The things you're looking for are most likely already discussed elsewhere in the forum and easily found with a search of, say, black emblems. You'll find it's quicker and in most cases better than just starting a new thread with questions, because in most cases an existing prior thread probably includes photos of the mods from enthusiastic owners, so you'll have an idea of what it will look like when installed. There's a classifieds subforum for tires and everything for sale. Good luck and welcome to the club.

Congrats on the new ride! Cant wait to see pictures of your new beast!!
In the meantime here are my suggestions
Buy new emblems off ebay (pretty cheap) and have them painted then put on the car in place of the old ones. Removing and putting the old ones back on after painting is difficult. Or you can plastidip which I did in red to the "63" but the quality isnt as good.
I also had my stock grill removed and painted gloss black. You can purchase CF wrapped grills or full carbon fiber grills as well. Look at Boca Design, Revozport, Vath, etc. (Searching the forum will provide lots of insight)
You have the right mindset looking for new tires! My C63 is 18 months old and Ive been through 5 sets of rear tires! My recommendation would be Michelin PSS if you want something long lasting with good grip. If you plan on shredding them doing burnouts then the cheapest with the best grip Ive experienced is the Kumho Ecsta LE Sport. Kumho also makes a coloured smoke tire (Ecsta SPT) which would be great for a photoshoot - not that Im already thinking about this for the spring

Don't take us too seriously...
Since this platform is known as MBWorld not "the AMG club" and I had not heard anyone referring to it as that, I pointed it out. There is nothing wrong with calling it that.
Cheers
