PICS...Picked up 2013 CLS63 and completed alot of mods

Recently picked up a CPO 2013 CLS63 with only 26k miles. Black on black. Attached are the pics from the day I picked it up and a bunch of new ones with my recent mods.

Performance and Sound
  • Eurocharged stage 2 tune installed using the my genius handheld.
  • Resonator delete
  • BMC Air Filters
Looks
  • Rims were powdercoated black.
  • All chrome deleted with 3M 1080 gloss black wrap. I actually DIY'd...never wrapped before but figured I would give it a try. With about $50 in wrap and tools I was able to wrap the door trim, door handles, grill, hood emblem, front side markers and the rear trunk strip. Once you get the hang of working with the stuff its not that hard.
  • The last thing I will be doing is painting the calipers bright red and getting some spacers for the rears.

Day I got it




After the Mods

Looks great, and low miles too, that's killer. I've always wanted to wrap my trim too just never have but I have been inspired, so thanx!

Many more miles to come eh?

Thanks guys...def many more miles to come! with regards to the wrapping. I just watched a bunch of youtube videos by some professionals (CKWraps had a ton of helpful videos). After that it was just trial and error and learning how to work with the material. A heat gun or hair dryer is definitely a must.

Nice car and low miles (barely broken in). As long as you take care of the car, it will take care of you. I plasti dipped my wheels black. I also intended to do my emblems and do a chrome delete DYI. I came across the CKWraps on youtube but I will go through their vids and order my wraps.

I would definitely wrap the window trim, grill etc. I have plastidipped those in the past on previous cars and it doesnt look as good as a wrap. CKWrps is great watch a bunch of his videos take your time and with trial and error you will get it. its not that bad

Updated Pics

Had some time over the weekend. Painted the calipers red and gave the car its first DIY paint correction. Clayed, polished, sealed and waxed.

CLS63 5.5 Biturbo
Had mine de-chromed yesterdayalso had the headlight and rear lights wrapped in black mesh so its not illegally dark, fitted front splitter myself, and rear genuine spoiler wrapped it gloss black, now awaiting for the decals to arrive from ebay in gloss black then all is done, only thing left is the debate to remap or stick with standard, a friend had his remapped and downpiped and now it smokes everywhere, lekas oil everywhere and sensors just keep going wrong, so more towards keep it stock, I had the middle section resonator straight 3inch piped all the way thru back boxes off and it sounds awesome without going downpipe route. More pics once all badges arrive😎😎😎

I have the eurocharged "off the shelf" tune and have zero issues. I know there are plenty of others with the same feedback as me. Check the W212 E63 forum for a ton more info on this.

And plenty of people use to look at supercar owners like they are *******s when they take up two spots or park "weird" so that nobody is too close. The paintwork on a bugatti is about $350k (that can buy you a nice bentley).

The original paint is of course included in the $2M price tag, but for a complete custom job, or to repaint a factory color will run you $11,574.
