I just bought my C350 Aphine White two weeks ago. It comes with Premium 2 package, Multimedia package and Sport/AMG package. Right now, i am very interested and looking to buy C63 bumper / C63 Quad Exhaust / add more sound for the exhaust / dark-tinting the headlamps / Clear white side marks. I think it makes alot of difference putting them on, it will be a completely different car . I went to the dealer to check around for the body parts and i was offered $700 for the C63 front bumper but they are not sure if it will fit on the car and they told me to take my own risk. So i was wondering if anyone here have done any of these modifications .. I am looking for spend $3000-4000ish on these modifications. Please leave some advice or recommendation for my car, thank you!

they won't fit, but you can buy parts that are made to look like the c63 that fit on c300/c350

The AMG quad exhaust is goin to run you about $2100 without tax and labor. I would look at the Meisterschaft exhaust. For the C63 bumper it wont fit the car unless you buy the fenders. But on ebay theres a c63 bumper that claims to fit on our cars.. heres the link for the bumper. also if you get that bumper you will need the c63 fog light..They the 2nd link

Clear markers are a must. Personally I'd skip the front end conversion and get a C63 style grille if you want to change the look up. I wouldn't go overboard trying to make it look like a C63. The C63 exhaust will sound nice, but you'll probably loose some low-end torque, which is one of the better features of the M272 engine.

If you want to really improve the car with your $4K, check out the header & ECU package from RENNtech and Kleemann which both claim to add over 40hp/tq. The headers are said to make a wonderful exhaust note.

I've attached a dyno chart I received from Kleemann. 51hp & 43tq gain.

Congrats on your car and good luck on the mods!

i noticed you said u wanted to spend 3-4000k and all those mods look promising... however, u didn't mention anything about wheelz? how about them?

Honestly, wheels are the last thing i want to buy, they are expensive and i would rather spend the money on the parts. I saw this on ebay

and the backlight are really nice. What are they called?

honestly, nothing changes the look of a car more than wheels and drop imo. You can do a bunch of minor cosmetic changes, but those two will have the biggest impact. Quality wheels are expensive, but there's nothing wrong with the stock 18" amgs. Something to add to your list would be a drop either via springs, or if you have the cash, coilovers.

Three piece spoiler is nice. If the 350 didn't come with one, that would probably be the way I'd of gone.

Are you referring to the taillights? The black edging on them is sick. I want it in a bad way, but I don't want to ship my tails out to get done right. I did buy the chrome pieces you see on ebay and sanded and painted them black, just haven't gotten around to putting them on yet. Not sure I want the bulky look of the 'stick-on' trim pieces. They look awesome from a distance or in pictures though!

Tuning is going to cost a lot and you have fewer options compared to other "tuner" cars.
