new 63
Well I finally got the right price from the dealer and got a pre owned 63 with 4k on it. Silver with ash gray interior p2 package and distronic?.
I am going to get the windows tinted next, and was wondering about radar dectors/jammers?
Any suggestions on what brand ? I am looking for the one thats gives me front and rear protection, thinking a hard install. One of the questions I had was will a radar dector affect the distronic? or the distronic affect the radar dector?
Also any simple performace upgrades for this car?
Anyone installed a clear bra on the front?
Anyone know of a local place in Tampa to install the clear bra?
Thanks

congrats on your purchase:
go with Valentine1

I already started to look into that. I might do a chrome rim or maybe black. I got to figure out what looks good with the shape and silver paint. What are the used amg rims worth? If I can get a decent amout of money then I may sell them if not I will just add it to my collection.
I saw where people were removing the charcoal filter, what was the reason for AMG putting it there in the first place?
