for power, there are exhausts available from numerous companies. ecu tune is probably also a good idea, it's also available from many tuners.
for handling you can get brakes (c63 or brembo are the generally seen as the best), coilovers (many recommend HnR), and strut tower braces (renntech, mbarts, etc)
this is all i can think of for now.
for others on your list im not sure if there are any good ones if even available for our cars
but again, if money is no prob, they're gonna say get a c63
hope this helps

well if your buying all the same parts as the rest of us, your car isn't going to be any different is it?
you can find a loaded 09 63, minus the PP for about 53k now. your EASILY going to go over that from your base 350 cost in no time buying and installing headers, exhausts, tunes, wheels, bbk's etc.
and i hate to ask the obvious but if "money wasn't a problem" and you fully intended to mod, why not get the 63 to begin with?

Fit full house Kleeman including blower. That should differentiate your wallet from the rest of us. I'm sure Carlsson or Lorinser will relieve you of further cash for pretty body kits & wheels

Price would of been around $15K USD before installation, but you would of had 350hp in your C.

They are completely different upgrades at completely different prices.
Until Kleeman comes out with their sports cam and headers, then their upgrade is the same as Carlsson, with the exception that Carlsson will warranty the engine for 3 years, 50,000 miles and Kleeman will not. Both packages are an upgraded intake, engine management, and exhaust, cost a few grand and get you up to 295 hp.
Brabus will pull your engine and bore your cylinders from 3498cc to ~3980cc, replaces your pistons, and I think your camshaft as well. Brabus will also warranty your engine, and for about $20,000 get you up around 315 hp.
Kleeman has more potential, if they can ever get their additional parts out of prototype, but you sacrifice a warranty. Carlsson has a warranty, and Brabus is ridiculous for the C350.

Well you want to be distinct to all of us?.... no money problems?.. well, go to a local tuner and fabricate a custom twin turbo kit for it and then install a standalone engine management system... with all that.. it should be cheaper than brabus, kleeman or w/e.. and you will be faster than them...
Since money is no object and the car is up for modding... mercedes benz warranty doesn't cover as much since service and parts have to be bought by you... and it is veryy rare that a car goes in for a warranty problem in the motor.. so Good Luck

If I was determined to spend 20K ungrading the engine on my C, I would likely just drop the 20K on a C63 trade.

With no budget limits I would select a German tuner, ship it over, do full interior with best Recaros avail, + every perf upgrade possible, plus get a new paint job, or wet sand + clear + wet sand and 3 stage polish because orange peel is a killer.
Don't mess around with anything but German tuners certified as OEM producers- anything else is a compromise. Lots avail there can't access here in N. America
