What type of rear diffuser do you have? How hard was the install if you mind me asking. Personally I don't like the wheels but you know what it doesn't matter because as long as your happy that is all that matters!!

Looks good.

Not for me though, a little to dark. Very sleeper though. In my opinion the C63 is such a beautiful car, why hide her? I also would never remove the AMG stamp. I wear that thing with pride. Unless im racing for money I would never de-badge my car.

But I see what you are going for and you have done a nice job doing it.

Sweeet. I like the stealthy look. Maybe I'm biased noticing that it runs mid 11's. I would have tried the same wheels in 19 inch. Any particular reason you chose 18s?

I'm sure someone asked you before, but how did you do all of the black trim, paint or wrap? What did that run? I've been thinking about getting the trim around my windows done in the steel grey color of the car.

Thanks guys,
RevoZport rear diffuser.
Went with 18" because we run drag radials and there are no 19" drag radials yet. Also, the total 18" package is lighter than the 19" and when you race its all about weight.

That beast is scary looking. You're not fooling anyone with the stealth look.

I was thinking that the unbadged stealth look would be good for some chuckles on the road but then I noticed the big C63 on your tag that anyone coming up behind you would notice. Oh wait a minute I've seen you drive and no one ever comes up on your car from behind.

Im sure they are great with performance, but as far as looks are concerned... they are hideous, thats just my opinion... maybe its just the color of the car, im not sure, but I dont really like that whole set up...

What I like!
I think the black wheels work very well. Like MNL said, "mean" is the word that comes to mind.

Looking good and "mean"(as already said some members).
But, didn't you already have a set for Drag tires? The ones with CF look

not stock.
I would have chosen a different wheel style if I were to go with 18"....that style just dose not look good in 18"... even though it was done mostly for performance.
