exhaust question
I have seen an old post about someone putting C63 mufflers onto a C350. Setup for a c63 and c350 looks very similar. Does that mean that I can fit a aftermarket C63 exhaust onto a c350? Been looking at armytrix c63 exhaust. from a glance, it looks like it will fit. what do you guys think?
Also another question, i found a catback meisterschaft exhaust that i like but it states that it only fits 08-11 c300/350. I drive a 2013 c350.

Isn't the setup for a pre-facelift exhaust the exact same as the facelift exhaust? shouldn't installing this be no problem at all or a shop wouldn't think twice about fitment issues??

The link to the Meisterschaft exhaust doesn't work for me, but I'm assuming it's one of the quad tip ones. For the PFL Meisterschaft system I have, there were fitment issues both with and without the SR pipes. Without the SR pipe, the passenger side exhaust would come too close to the bottom right corner of the trunk and would not allow the exhaust tip to be centered. It can be done, but there would have to be a decent amount of modification by the shop.
With the SR pipes, and also as others have noted, the driver's side exhaust was shorter than the passenger's side. The shop would have to extend the length of the SR pipe to make them even, and would be a bit more costly than a simple bolt-on application. Not everyone has had this fitment issue so I'm not sure if only certain sets were affected, but it is a bit disappointing having bought a system intending it to be plug and play, but it is not.
