Had my side mirrors, chrome "lip" in the front, and the chrome around the windows and on the bonnet wrapped in black, just to get that night package look.
The wrapping used is Avery black metallic.
Pictures taken late at night with bad camera.

Very nice, and subtle. I like. I would love to see something similar on a darker car (black or grey). It really works on the white, especially with the black pano roof.

While having to procrastinate excessivly in another thread, over the rear exhaust design (because of the overly fastidious Glyn M Ruck and Vic, and their new obsession with weighing my every word on a scale) I came across what looks to be a neat and simple little modification.
May be old news for some, but much to my own surprise, the C63 does not have genuine exhaust pipes, but the same type of Faux tail pipes and rear silencers, shaped like the rest of the models. So getting your ride to look like a C63 at the rear, seems like a simple job. If you already have the AMG body kit, then it looks like all you need for the C63 transformation, is the middle diffusor panels and the four faux tail pipes.

it seems the middle and bottom diffusor panels will both have to be replaced. the amg has slightly different curvatures for both.

regardless, if its just a simple surface parts mod and doesnt involve the actual exhaust then its worth considering.

Really nice, subtle touch!Had the same in mind
Looks really good with the white paint job. Let's hope for similar effect on my palladium silver one
Guys can you please quite using the quote feature when a post is just pictures? Some of us use our mobiles phones to check the forums and seeing the same pictures over and over again is just a waste of bandwidth and annoying to have to scroll through.

Oh, the irony..... Just had to scroll through all these (repeated) photos again, to read your comment! LOL.
Hahaha. No, I won't take it off. What's the freaking big deal. As long as it looks good. If I have to take it off, does it mean I'd have to take off the wheels too because it's AMG wheels? And what am I going to do with the AMG body style? And then throw out the AMG floor mats?
I notice that most AMG owners would object. But don't you know the saying "imitation is the greatest form of flattery"?

lol im not saying take it off. its your car.
Its not really AMG anything its more "AMG sport".
It doesn't have the hand built engine, it doesn't have the same body, it doesn't have the same power, and close but not the same interior.
Just don't try to race anyone and make the AMG cars look bad Jk
but lets get back on having pictures of modded cars.
I wouldn't mind replacing the front grills with something like a chrome mesh style insert.... I think it would break up the black a bit and make it look a bit more sporty at the front......
Nice, but don't be a poser, take off the ///AMG badges
I think he has every right to have AMG on those brakes. In Australia I also have the AMG line option, these are listed below.
-AMG Sports seats
-19" AMG multi-spoke alloy wheels in bi-colour black
-AMG bodystyling comprising front apron, side sill panels and rear apron
-Sports suspension lowered by 15mm
-Sports steering wheel with flattened bottom section and chrome gear shift levers
-Dashboard and beltlines in stitched black ARTICO man-made leather
-AMG sports pedals in brushed stainless steel with black rubber studs
-Black ash open-pore wood / brushed aluminium trim
-Analogue clock in centre dashboard
-Perforated front brake discs
-Sports Direct-Steer system
-Tyre pressure monitoring system
-AMG floor mats
As this packs gives an AMG brake package then they are AMG break option. Why not have a sticker. In other parts of the world you dont have packs like this.

I was thinking of doing that, by vinyl wrapping it. But not sue if it's doable since there are so many holes
