Mad respect for doing such a good job on the body work, I'd love to see it in person to see if I can spot any flows in the paint, from the pictures it looks mint.

However, I hate the idea of having such a good looking car that doesn't have much for bawls to support it. What are your thoughts for adding a turbo down the road? I understand the problem you have with prices on a true C63 but buying a turbo system might not be such a bad idea =) I bet you could get one built for around 10-12K USD.

Plus I'd love to see what the bottom end of a C350 can hold, someone needs to be a guinea pig. hint hint

Just because you have it doesn't mean you need to use it. Its all about the total package.

Hopefully you'll change your mind, I want to see a dyno of a boosted C350.

you should make a custom kit for people who want to replicate that rear wheel arch flare and ship it globally, as I'm sure more than a few people would be interested in a beefier rear fender flare on their c63s.

I'm tired of this back and forth though and my stance on this has already been stated, so not going to say any more on it.

Clean work on the car though.
IMO you should have a C65 designation (since it's meaningless) and keep the AMG badge. AMG is just a subsidiary of Daimler now and they even market AMG pack on the lowest models as a free or low cost upgrade.

Daimler have diluted the brand exclusivity of AMG so much it does not matter except to those that pay an extra $30K.

Fabulous looking car!!

In Germany, most remove all badges - even the AMG.

Some people customize just because it's a passion and the need to be different

no, i dont want 2 b the only one,pls dont assume. u guys live in the US n nobody can do this? thought u guys r more advance. a bodywork shop in the US can custom make the splitter n the bigger rear fenders like mine im sure.

here is the bodywork shop email: subi_design@yahoo.com

his the one who did it so u guys can get more details.

off topic, this is the R&D vdo of the Mercedes SLS check this out:

thx who8888,
a few days ago was looking through this japanese exotic car magazine n saw a C63 AMG with the exact splitter n they flared the rear fenders just like mine. they also flared the front fenders even wider than the stock C63. the co. is called D2 design. could this b a coincidence? hmmm...
took some pics of the magazine. sory bout the pic quality cause im using a bad camera phone.
