Looks great!
I really like the white C63 with the red calipers. I'm not sure if I will really like the P31 package since my last test drive the brakes were too touchy for my taste, but I really did like the look.
Do the calipers have ///AMG Stickers or are the letters painted on?

most likely it will be a decal that is later layered with a clear for protection.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I was debating about doing red calipers, because the P31 comes like that, but my interior is red/black two tone, so im happy how it came out.

Many sports cars come with red calipers these days. I don't think it's that big of a deal to have them painted. It's not like you're slapping a Black series badge on a C300

Looks awesome! Plus this makes me feel good since I am working with Tal right now....He is an awesome guy and always responds in a quick manner..
I was debating doing red because my car is black but like everyone says the P31 already comes with it so I want to be different...I went with Lamborghini yellow..I may actually be getting your calipers adibaiz...Tal said he just sent a red set to a customer and was waiting to get the others back...Interesting!!
Can't wait to get them!

My little nieces are big fans of grumbling V8s - GTO/C63. They saw the Red calipers on the GTO and the C63 (P31) and regular calipers on the GL and the E550 and said : "Do all fast cars have red thing in tires?"
They are 5 and 8.

No, they are the regular AMG calipers non P31 package.
You may be right. it could be my calipers and yes, Tal is da man!
Great choice going with yellow on a black car. It will look sick!
Thanks, Matt, i hope it will look good. I can't wait to get the new wheels

It is a core swap of the calipers through ACG. What that means is they send you painted calipers whatever color you want you then install them and send them back your original silver calipers. This is so that you don't have any major downtime if your car is a daily driver. I did this through them with mine, my car was only down three hours for the install. Was back to speeding right after. Didn't have to wait for paint or paint to dry and didn't have to worry about painting them directly on the car.
