New Products for C63

We're currently developing a pair of splitters similarly to the one on the New E63 Carbon add-on kit.

I'd like to gather more ideas from members here, what do you guys want for your car (body-wise) and what would be the perfect kit for you?

Please feel free to give out any wild ideas you may have. We'd try to eventually realise your wish.

thx

Wow ... seems like everyone is opting for more Hardcore stuff.

The splitters are mearly like the M3 CSL type with 2 attaching splitters on each side of the bumper.

Others like the rear fender, how many people here are willing to cut out the original metal piece because you need to offset your wheel further out and the original panel will be on the way. We can work on the fender kit but not sure anyone would practically want it for sure.

As for the instrument cluster, we need to get a quote from Mercedes and see how much they charge us for that, once we got it, we can give you a quote.

thx

Ken

A vented c/f hood that would yield a weight reduction ~50lb and provide measurable heat extraction. That would be a hot item.

A carbon fiber pannel that replaces the sunroof and fits like the factory glass (i.e., no leaking).

Carbon Fiber hood with the heat extracting vents like HHughes1 requested for heat extraction that we can leave with the wet look or paint to match the body. This would be a great weight reduction tool along with performance enhancements. I cannot do photoshop well but here's a try.

The rear fenders definitely need to be widened. I would cut them for sure if you'll make a good looking kit to basically match the front fenderers. Bring it on!

Any products to make mine look like this would be Awesome!



.....but in all seriousness, I guess a matt finish diffuser would be a good idea or how about some CF badging?

this car is located in Abudhabi-United Arab Emirates, this is a foil ... it cost around 14K to foil the whole car .. there is a golden foil and a silver foil.
it is illegal to foil the car and drive it in the morning due to sun reflection which might affect or distract other drivers on the road.

however, another good type of a foil is the carbon fiber finish foil, you can foil any part of your car and make it look as an original carbon fiber piece, a friend of mine did it on his SLR, the side grills, side mirrors and rear diffuser ... it looks really great.

This actually can be done quite easily however, the panel will be just a thin carbon laminate sheet that you stick on top of your glass roof. But will that look silly?

Or you mean replacing the whole glass panel into carbon fibre?

What about the whole roof without the glass panel. Something like M3, M6 have ? Is it possible?

Yes I want wider rear fenders that allow wider tires than what we are limited to now.

+3 - great idea on the CF hood. Weight reduction in the front + help keep our engine cool sounds like a performance winner.
