OEM BlackSeries/507 hood and Vorsteiner sideskirts installed!

Finally got all the parts needed for this, and had everything installed last week while I was out of town for work. Really happy with how it looks! I feel like photos don't do it justice, so you'll have to excuse the crappy cell phone photos.

Nice hood & front lip.. Very aggressive!

But never been a fan of the Vorsteiner sideskirts, I think the Revozport sideskirts & rear skirts will complement ur car better.

I already told this to another member. I do not like this front lip but it matches the bulky side skirts. Not my style.
I think now you need a little more flush-ness on the front wheels. I see you have the side markers shaved

Do I want to know how much the OEM 507 Hood cost altogether?

Would it have been more cost effective to buy the Mode Carbon 507 Hood?

I was really on the fence about this lip, but once I got it on the car I realized it looks WAY better in person than it does in photos. I previously had the ModeCarbon luftstrom lip. I'm pretty happy with this one now!

I got all the OEM parts for a 507 hood conversion for < $3k shipped from ECSTuning. I made another post with all the part numbers and such here: https://mbworld.org/forums/6082921-post9.html

Awesome. Glad ECS worked out for you. Sometimes, they can be a hit or miss, especially with shipping costs.

3K for the OEM BS hood is not bad compared to what some of the aftermarket hoods are selling for the C63's.


If its a few hundred bucks within the price of the mode carbon replicas. I would spring for the OEM hood. Some owners may like the carbon exposed look, I would end up painting it anyways.

No, haha. The OEM inserts are just plastic. No carbon in there yet!

Wow i LOVE that front and side skirts.
Makes the car look so much more aggressive. The hood is a no brainer. 100% perfect!

If i may, my only thought, is the chrome around the DRL. Thought of blacking it out?

Other than that, that is a beautiful looking car.
