Looks like, where did you get the CF diffuser from and how much did you pay?

They were both bought used from a guy here. He happened to a few minutes from where I live. Damage was $275 for the parts.

Looks good and you got a good deal on it keep up the good work maybe you should get a X-pipe just to give a lil tone to the car to match up with the tips

Looks excellent - I am not anti-mod by any means, but I really appreciate it when the upgrade appears like it could have come from the factory that way - and you have accomplished just that - non owners would have no idea that was custom - Well done.

My trunk spoiler is actually starting to come off on the right side. I bought a carbon fiber one to match the diffuser. Maybe 18" rims. My cousin wants me to change out the headers and pulleys, then get it tuned but I might not go for that. It's getting a bit pricey for me.

Just wanted to make sure, the x-pipe will give me some tone but not will not sound like a Honda, correct? I like the deep tone.

Looks beautiful. the quad set up completely changes the look of the car. I stare at my car from behind every time i get out of it now. and you'll love it with the x-pipe even more.

I would be interested in getting this done. Are there exhaust systems with quad tips already that can accomplish this or should I get in touch with my body shop to make one up for me? I am guessing the bumper will need to be cut and what not? That part I am not too happy about though.

You will need to get a C63 Diffuser if you dont' want to cut. Your local muffler shop should be able to make you a y pipe for the dual tips. Follow this link How to set up quad exhast.

Nice! Thanks for the info. Where can I get the C63 cf diffuser from? I've always liked those so deff wouldn't mind it. Is it an easy fit for those on the C350's, i.e. no cutting of the bumper and such? PS: How would it even work with the diffuser? I mean if I am correct the diffuser just basically sticks on top of the bumper right? So for the quad tips to come they would still need the extra gap in the bumper wouldn't it? And that would mean cutting it regardless? The diffuser prolly just hide it all behind it but wouldn't there still be cutting involved? Unless the exhaust is made to fit lower than where it is at in the normal bumper? What am I missing here. Thanks!

Gonna get in touch with my exhaust shop and see what they can do for me in terms of the quad tips.

they'll fit any w204 with sport package. You can go on the C63 forum and ask if anybody has one for sale(got mine for a really good price from there and it was practically brand new) or you can get it from mymercedesparts.com remember you'll need the mounting brackets too. installation of this took me 20 minutes

I have a C350 4MATIC. Is that going to be different than the sport package one's? I am new to these so not too familiar with all the different trims. And it's a 2009 if that matters. Thanks.


And for the diffuser, can I get any diffuser for the C63? Regardless of the brand/make/model and such?

PS (copy/pasting from above) How would it even work with the diffuser? I mean if I am correct the diffuser just basically sticks on top of the bumper right? So for the quad tips to come they would still need the extra gap in the bumper wouldn't it? And that would mean cutting it regardless?

there is CF diffusers that you stick ontop of the oem C63 diffuser, or there is ones that replace the C63 diffuser. to install the C63 diffuser on your sport bumper, you would need to remove the stock one. there is 4 screws that hold it and a bunch of tabs. it really is very easy once you get under the car and look.

I have a c350 4matic not a c63. So that what I was asking how can i put the c63 diffuser on top of that and if I would need to cut the c350 bumper to fit the 4 tips as it is only designed for two.

Hey Papa,
All you need to do is get the C63 diffuser and the brackets to go with it. Removed your OEM one off from your C350 and pop the C63 one in. The C63 one is made for quad exhaust tips.
I got lucky because I bought my setup and it was all ready to go. The brackets were on the diffuser, and the tips were already welded in a Y pipe together. Hope this helps.

That makes sense. Thanks very much. Where did you get the parts from (diffuser, brackets, tips etc)? Is there somewhere online I can order them from? Then I can just provide the shop with them and they can fabricate the exhaust tips for me. I'll refer them to the thread posted above so they know what to do.

These are all OEM parts you can get them at any Mercedes dealership.

Wouldn't the dealership cost a lot more? Usually they are more expensive than elsewhere aren't they?

Thanks Chewy. Just picked up the car today and already thinking about mods. lol What's wrong with me. Haha

You can try getting them on ebay if you want to save. I didn't think I was going to mod my car either when I bought it. I think it's an addiction. One thing after another. Enjoy your car!
