had 2 wait a longer time for white,juz took wats in da showroom.

AMG does not make exhaust system for C200k, the C63 AMG exhaust system can't fit into a C200,ha ha!
on a C300 or C350 i believe it can.my car is juz a 1.8 supercharger.
i like the sound of the Brabus exhaust system n will give extra 5-8hp mayb.

Nice car, and those rims

AMG exhaust can be made (customfit) on your C200K, I have the Brabus exhaust on mine (C180K) and they sounds very good..... but i havent got the AMG package. And if i'm not wrong, ART also has a exhaust for your C200K.

I agree, it's crazy to paint the car so soon. BUT if you are going to paint it, might I suggest going with Diamond white? Arctic white is a little creamy, while diamond white is metallic white white. Would make your car stand out and I think look much better. Problem is you'd have to repaint your body kit to match as well, but if you're crazy enough to repaint anyways, might as well go all the way.

2008 Arctic White C300 Sport 6M
Oooohh... I had forgotten about the ART monoarts before I saw your pic. Beautiful rims. I've always loved the design.

Take a look at this link:

https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w204/252265-black-luxury-grille-baby.html

I have an Arctic White, and I love it, but that black lux grill on a black car looks just too sweet. I say you try what he did, and then decide whether you wanna paint a brand new car. You could always decide to paint it later when you get bored of the black color, or if you gather enough scratches and chips on your paint, right? And I second the Diamond white suggestion.

Wow about the repainting. But I'd stick with black. Although it is a biatch to detail at times... at least after some elbow grease its all worth it in the end. If you tint the windows with limo tint all round... that a big +10 pts. Those are some BIG rims though you got there! :o

Ok, you can buy the original C63 exhausts and made them fit, i know there's one on this forum who has done this....

But the brabus looks also really nice:
