Urban Customs

I searched and found many threads but not specific to just C CLASS cars with only C63 AMG parts. I am hoping we can just start a nice thread with pictures and mods.

I just bought an 08 C300 and within owning it for one week purchased OEM C63 Wheels, Rear diffuser, AMG TIPS, rear spoiler, & C63 Front bumper. I will post pics next week or so when completely finished.

Just want to get ideas on what else I can do.

How about c63 hood

Urban Customs

Didn't even know they were different. I am a previous M3 owner so I am new to Mercedes.

You could technically do C63 side skirts as well if we are going down that detailed of a route.

snowmuch

C63 has have bumps on their hood while regular c does not.

WHY DONT YOU BUY A NEW SHAPE 2013 C CLASS STANDARD HOOD AND CHANGE TO THE NEW LIGHTS TO SUIT AND MAKE IT LOOK LIKE ITS JUST ROLLED OUT THE FACTORY AND IT WILL GET RID OF THOSE HIDEOUS EYE BROW LIGHTS THAT I CANT STAND,HENCE WHY ILL BE DOING THE SAME

Is an AMG brake conversion realistic? Or is it too expensive?

itsLoonie

It's possible. Been done already. About $3,699 for everything. Won't work if you have stock 17s on right now.

Purchased my 08 C300 with 52k miles for $20,300 before tax

I've already done:
C63 Bumper $550
C63 Diffuser $425
C63 Tips $290
C63 Spoiler $150
C63 Wheels $1900

If I do brakes I will be at $27,000 into my car. Should I have just bought a higher mileage C63?

itsLoonie

Haha that's all up to you and your preference. Care about gas mileage? Insurance?

I drive low and I really don't want to do that to an AMG. How much is a high mileage C63 anyways. 35k~45k still?

Also where'd you get the C63 Bumper? OEM? How are you fitting the bumper, having someone custom fit it?

snowmuch

Probably leave your car stock for now and save up money for a real AMG.

Urban Customs

Sorry. Mistyped it. Everything I got was OEM except the bumper. I just bought the one from Suvneer that is made for the C300. Did not want to do any custom work.

Urban Customs

Will used E55 or SL55 AMG rotors fit? Finding used sets

update so far



wheels tips diffuser

Dude, that looks hot (especially because of the color). I am doing the identical bumper conversion now, however, mine is due to the fact that I had the luxury trim.

One suggestion would be to upgrade your tail lights. I got a pair of C63 tail lights for $200. You could also update those side-view mirrors as well.

P.S. What pipe style are those tips? Is there a pipe in the middle, or is it jutting out from the side?

Makross

this should be good.

Looking Good

Did you need spacers for your wheels?

I'm going to put 2012 C63 OEM wheels on instead of my 17" stock ones

Robmat200

Where did you purchase your oem wheels urban?

Robmat200

Where can i get the tail lights and arrow mirrors?

I love watching these threads evolve! Good job.

I have done most of the mods you've done so far (minus the bumper) but it's still no C63. Even if you're able to make it look like a c63, it'll never be able to replicate that 6.3L V8 growl, which for me at least is the best part about the C63.

I would suggest not spending too much on this car now and just getting the C63 when you can. That's the course of action I am taking now.

very nice!
