I'm waiting for my iForged Revs to come in the mail. Then my future mods will be BBK and paint my roof black. Maybe even get white stitching for my black interior. Here's some pics.

Also I got some interest in another thread about my 17 inch AMG wheels. I am willing to part with them, they have less then 500 miles on the tires. Everything is in perfect condition. If anyone else has any interest shoot me a PM!

Looks nice. What made you paint your side markers black? Do they still illuminate or is the paint opaque?

Azn_C300

Very nice

How much did the audio setup cost?

Personally I'd rather go clear or white painted sidemarkers. The black stands out in a place where the car doesn't need to stand out.

Painted roof would looks sweet! Post pics when you get the IForged

It doesn't illuminate. It stays a sold black. I went with the black to add a more aggressive look and to match my accents. I'm getting black iForged wheels and I'm thinking about painting my roof black so it will all go together nicely with the white/black theme. I think the black side markers makes it look a bit more aggressive as well.

All the work I've got done so far only cost me $1500. I have some friends at a car audio shop that does amazing work and they hooked me up. I was going to paint the markers white but I couldn't find the exact paint match. But when I send in my car for my roof I might send in the markers and get them painted white.

I can't wait for my wheels to get in. It should be another couple weeks till I get them

looks nice, but on my opinion I think the marker lights would look much better painted white

Alex@wheelexperts

looks good

Wheels and a drop are hopefully next on the list...

love the grill, is there a clearcoat on top of the black? or is it just straight paint?

I also agree with the sidemarker, would like them white.

Beams2Benzos

no clearcoat, just straight paint.

trial0r

are your taillights tinted?

+1 for white markers instead of black but the rest looks great. black top is sex too.

+1000 for white stitching inside

Beams2Benzos

Thanks. The taillights look like they're tinted in the pic but there not. I'm going to tint the white strip though. Black top should be done in the next week or two. White stiching should hopefully come after my BBK and roof. I got the markers painted black because my boys at the shop had that color and they did it for free so I wanted to see how it looks. I think it looks pretty nice, white could look better though.

wow, in NY i would be swimming in ticket with those tints.

Turboxer

Nice cars...good taste!

Ron Jr

And also for the painted side markers.

Beams2Benzos

Thanks for the reply's. I'm getting my headlights painted black today, to give it that C63 AMG headlight look. Should be ready by tomorrow! Next should be the roof. Anyone know where I can get a good price on a BBK?

Looks great with the new mods. Can't wait to see what it would look like with the iForged rims on. I personally would have got the sidemarkers painted white instead of black but still it looks better than the orange.

Beams2Benzos

Here's some new pics of the car with the painted headlights. I'm going to paint the side markers white when I send in the car to get the roof painted, so no worries fella's! Enjoy the pics

Flame3g

did they take you headlight apart and was it hard

aowhaus

WOW, 5% tint!!!

How do you drive at night?

Azn_C300

pics with the headlights on?

j_belll

i like it, excellent start

pics of the G55 GE?

trial0r

+1 for pics with headlights on

Beams2Benzos

Flame3g- Yeah they had to take the headlights comepletly off, it wasn't to hard for these guys but it took a lot of time. For any other shop it would've been really hard but these guys are super sick with it. One of them specializes in mercedes so that really helped.

aowhaus- I got night vision

Azn_C300- I will take some pics with the lights on today

FreshBenz- Here's a pic with the c350 and G55 AMG side by side

trial0r- I'll take some today

this car looks mean! how much for the sub/amp setup? i'm thinking of throwing one 12" sub in my car maybe. i know so little about automotive audio equipment its not even funny.

Beams2Benzos

The 2 13's+ the amp+ the tweeters+ the custom trunk with lights+ cables+ installation= $2500 which was an amazing deal. It comes with a lifetime warranty. If your in california check out CaliforniaOnDisplay.com they do fantastic work for excellent prices and it comes with that lifetime warranty. I suggest you check them out if your anywhere near Northern California. That 2500 was a complete custom job so if your looking for a basic setup they will only charge 150 to run the wires plus the equipment you need. One of the installers actually specializes in mercedes. I'll get some more pics including pics with the headlights on.
