Beautiful car man. Subtle but aggressive. You should get 19s, it would really set it off. Love all your mods so far. I have done similar ones. Just out of curiosity, where did you get your c63 style bumper and is it fiberglass or polyurethane and is it holding up okay? How was the fitment compared to oem one?

Thanks Man,

Im looking into some 19s HRE's for it. I know some wheels will complete the look Im going for. The front bumper was purchased from Ebay and its Poly. Fitments is ok but not perfect. Im happy with it though. So far its holding up pretty well

Mercedes Benz updated the c300 sport in 2011 to have black housing on their headlights. I purchased original headlights from Mercedes Benz for that model year. You can also open yours and paint the interior which is the less expensive option. I just didn't have time for that.

To be honest, I don't have an exact number for the rear as I had the hood and front bumper resprayed when I got the new rear. I figure around $1500 parts and paint for the rear.

Very nice! I actually liked the chrome trim over red... It looks great without it too is just that my c220 doesn't come with it and I actually like the look of the chrome trim.

Don't have the part number at this time but the halogen cost about $265 each and if you want the HIDs are about $750 each. And they are plug and play.

I have a C350 and they did mine. You need to speak to Kevin Ingold in the AMG performance center.

Took some pics while I was out at Dinner. I just ordered a matte black grill as I'm tired of the chrome shiny bits. Im going to vinyl the chrome trim around the windows also. Im also thinking of refinishing the AMG wheels in black. What do you guys think? I think the wheels will look sick in black.
