I DO NOT recommend the AMG side sills for the rocker panels under the doors.

The first set I bought online, and had my Mercedes dealership install, started coming off after a couple weeks. They then ordered a second set, installed them, and again they started coming off in a couple weeks.

After complaining to Mercedes USA over the course of a couple months, they finally agreed to replace my stock rocker panels with new ones (because drilling is required to install the AMG side sills), and reimburse me for my original purchase of the side sills & labor.

In the future, I'm just going to have that portion of the rocker panels wrapped in black.

BTW, the decal on the doors & fender on that red C450 looks hideous...

There's no body kit on it I think it just has some AMG add-ons such as the side sills, rear side flics, and diffuser.

You can find those all on the MB website under genuine accessories.

Ya and it also has the front splitter. I ordered the front splitter and side sills from my dealership and a very happy with the look and fit. I didn't get the rear piece as I have a mode carbon rear diffuser with c63 tips.

Thanks. It​​​ only comes in gloss black from what I've seen so to be honest, not sure it works if you don't have the night package. Might look odd. But yes, all the Mercedes accessories just bolt on over the stock pieces, this includes rear valence, side skirts, flicks and front splitter.

Thanks, appreciate the kind words. I've had the car a few months now and did everything bit by bit since I bought it. Here is a full list:

19" Velos Designwerks S1s in combo gloss black windows/polished clear front.
Wrapped black back chrome and handles.
Mode carbon rear diffuser painted gloss black.
C63s night package exhaust tips.
H&R adjustable springs (being installed next week).
AMG accessory side sills.
AMG accessory front splitter.
Mars performance c63 style front grill gloss black.
Dinan Elite piggy back tune (being installed next week)
Yomomato red carbon fiber push start but button.
20% tint all around.

Once i get it on the new H&Rs, I'll be very happy with the final project. It gets alot of nice attention to it.



Love these seats.


Red means 'go' 😉

This is back on winters but shows off the side view of the front splitter a little.

In Canada, I think it was a $2,500 option.

You can just get aftermarket recaro seats. You can even buy OEM seats online through a 3rd party retailer.
