exhaust sections. Do you think I'll have trouble completing the same mod with these slightly different exhausts? I believe you have the 55 model exhaust welded up correct? Also, did you just cut the pipes and tip after the muffler can itself? Or did you actually use the AMG muffler cans also? Thanks. Nice cutting of the diffuser as well. Would you possibly have some closer pictures of exactly how that came out? Are the edges rough or sanded smooth? What was used to cut the material? Thanks so much for your help. Also, sound clips!!!

Raydens: It looks great! I am actually shocked at how much better it looks than OE.

ZippyD: We are enthusiasts. To a degree, we are hot rodders. Hot rodding has always been about personalization and improving upon an original design to suit one's own taste. Most of us can't leave our cars alone; no matter what they are. I have modified almost every vehicle I have ever owned. No car is perfect for everyone; that's why we try to make our cars perfect for us.

If you're not into it, fine. Let others enjoy their vehicles and share their experiences on the forum. You wouldn't be here if you were not an enthusiast though.

if that's true, then why are people constantly bashing on ricers? it's their car, and each have their own personal tastes, yet people always hate on their big wings or loud exhausts.

i'm not trying to start anything, it just kind of crossed my mind when i was reading this post. it's a good quote though!

i love that exhaust! it's a beauty

Well said Speed.

As for bashing ricers - I do not know that I see that here all that often. It is very rare!

We are just 2 different demographics. We drive $40k cars and usually subscribe to a less is more philosophy when it comes to mods. Sure some can be seen as over the top – but hey its their car to do with as they wish. However, when they make a pubic post they are inviting others offer up their opinions. It usually is no big deal until someone flames someone for being different. That’s all.

I agree. I prefer mods that enhance performance and make subtle visual improvements that other enthusiasts will notice. Some mods even make owning a car a little easier. For example, I added a lower front valence to my Passat and had the lower rock gaurds painted to match. Washing and waxing paint is much easier that avoiding black trim while waxing and then treating it with protectant.

I think it looks good. Would love to hear it

What they did just cut the muffler and retrofitted them to the existing bracket. Pipes were not cut. All of them are stock AMG 55. As for the edges, after it was cut we sanded down to smooth them out.

As for sound clip, what clips are you guys expecting since I'm newbie to getting the clip.

You need to paint that bracket urgently.

I'm sorry, I'm still a little confused about how you did it. So you used the whole AMG muffler or just the AMG exhaust tips?

I have 2 questions:

A). Did you use the whole AMG muffler and then weld on to the stock C300 pipe?

OR

B). Did you just cut off the AMG exhaust tips to weld on to the stock C300 muffler?

Thanks!

I'm the first one to say something about a mod being stupid or ricy (and I consider MOST mods ricy) and I have to say this is AWESOME and I'd love to do it on my car.

ZippyD has no idea what hes talking about.

I think the default reply to most, if not all, of the hater comments on this forum is:

"Who's payin for it?"

sick mod!

I was a little confused as to what you meant when you said you didn't cut the pipes. Does this mean that the cat-back section of the AMG quads actually bolted up to your existing 3 bolt flange? It just seems odd that they would actually link up properly, but then again maybe that isn't what you meant and I just read it wrong. In any event, thanks for the response and hope to hear from you again.

Very cool, very creative. Good job!

I used whole AMG muffler and then welded on to the stock c300. Brackets from the muffler was customized to fit the existing C300 hooks.
