Need to find some time to install my H&R SS springs and waiting for the Lamin-x tints for front and rear lights.. Going to black out the silver part of the grille with flat black too

congrats on the new car

Carlsson FTMFW!! I was considering those wheels, but they only got 19s and up...

stock diffuser is mounted by clips, 2 screws on the far end and two screws in the middle. two in the middle are easy to take out. two on the far end you might want to remove the stock exhaust tips so you can see them on the side. once those screws are all out just bent the clips a little bit and they'll pop right out with some force.

the 63 diffuser if you did not get the two supporting arms for the middle you will need to get those and then use nuts/bolts to mount them to the diffuser and then use the screws you took off from the stock diffuser to mount it back. clips on the 63 diffuser are thin, so you might break a few, but that's how it is. one of the reason i opted for the oem one.

hahha thanks for all the comments!!
Most of those stuff animals are my sister's, and I still have the Doraemon headrest covers from the old W203 and ML...People can easily recognize my car because of those stuff animals lol
I got gunsmoke tints, they are still on the way to my house and I just painted my grille (the grey part) to flat black last night but it seems to get scratched easily, so I might just take it out and respray it with more layers.
Carlsson FTMFW!!! Thanks Frank, I got ordered the brackets yesterday and need to figure out how to mount the top part since my didn't come with the fins. Might have to go to Micropower way and screw it on.
There are some pictures with the Carlsson wheels on a white C. It did not look that good imo, maybe because I am not really into white cars.
