Took a 2009 C300 and turned it into this..
So Let me start off by saying, I really wanted a C63. Here is the picture of the before.
I Started Modding the car. First came tint and a spoiler. It sat for a while and i still wasnt happy, So I went full facelift C63 on it.
CURRENT MODS:
FaceLift DRLS
FaceLift C63 LOOK hood
W204 Duraflex Morello Edition Fenders
FaceLift Headlights
FaceLift Steering Wheel
FaceLift Tail Lights
Carbon Rear Diffuser
E Class AMG Tailpipes
Rear Fin
X Pipe Mod
TODO:
ECU Flash
C63 Grill
Illuminated Sills
Get paddle shifters working
Get carbon fiber lip spoiler in the front
MAYBE:
Get Carbon Fiber bumper flairs for the back

P.S.
If anyone needs a new hood/front fenders painted 775 let me know I got some for sale cheap
Also have some stock rims + good tires cheap (without TPS)
And Stock head/taillights

Ebay, just search "w204 c63 look hood" The c63 hood won't fit so make sure it's a c63 look hood it's about 800 get the aluminum, durable kinda sucks

As for the front end, there are plenty of pained ones on ebay like this cheap. It will take a bit to get it to fit just right, but its pretty easy.

Shipping kills me, going to Australia. Also, we don't have those horrible indicators on the bumper, and I want to keep it that way
Thanks for the tip though!

Well... it's unique I guess
I personally think it looks like a Frankenstein car. If you go to resell it, people like me would notice all the mis-matches and figure the car was in a wreck and wasn't put back together properly
But as long as you enjoy it

Ya I like it, And you can easily tell it wasn't wrecked by just opening the engine compartment .

Ya, Dont care what you think about it not being what it looks like. Kit cars are huge and they arent Lambo's, but some of them you would be hard pressed to find the difference without opening the hood. I cant afford 80k.. and until I can this is the closest I can get.

I see all these guys flaming you because it isn't really a C63 and I just shake my head..
What's wrong with wanting a car with lower maintenance costs, a more economical engine lower insurance premiums etc that still has the looks.
Who cares if it isn't a v8 under the hood? Half of us have coil over shocks, catless exhausts and all manner of various go fast bits. Are our cars race cars? not even slightly.
Some people like to modify their vehicle for performance, some like to personalise the image of it, others don't like changing anything at all. Whatever is being done doesn't directly affect you as a person, so why the negativity?

First, he did post on a public forum. Second, he clearly states that he wants to know what we think. Third, I just looked at the pics again, and I noticed that it's not a AMG replica front bumper. It's looks like the old prefacelift bumper with the LED like from 2011. So really, the only AMG thing I see about this car is the diffuser and the exhaust tips

Thanks AusMB87, but flaiming was fully expected. Anyone who has a C63 is angry I can make it look similar for a fraction of the cost. I'm gonna badge it just to make them even angrier . Also anyone who says its frankenstien tell that to the people at the MB dealership who checked it in for service as a C63 LOL had to tell them 3 times it was a C300 when they were trying to charge me for oil

God knows I would prefer a C63, but that is a whole lot of extra dollars.
Anyway, nothing wrong with a bit of a frankenstein in my book I'm sure as hell going to be putting the facelift AMG style bumper on my 2010. And Carlsson badges to match my tune. And probably the AMG style bonnet at some point. And I only have four cylinders

I wasn't flaming you for making it look like a "c63" . My point was that it doesn't even look like a c63. That's not a face-lift AMG bumper. Those are not oem headlights. Those are the depo aftermarket headlights. Only thing resembling the c63 is your diffuser
