I may be in a minority but I don't particularly care for the use of LED's in this manner...they really detract from the overall aesthetic presentation of the car by how they draw the attention of the eye to that area as well as the linear, slender form of the LED row. I can see it on maybe a white SL, but just not so much on a C63. JMHO.

2 Sincity: Dabadging is actually an option in Europe. Well I can say that in Moscow, Russian (where dealers sell Euro spec cars) it is a free option. It is listed on the official option list of the car.

That is Aftermarket Wide Body kit from Expression (on the pic you posted) it is not OEM MY2011 led fog light. As bhamg said, it takes away from the overall look. IMO I'm not a big fan of fog lights anyway. It there was an option not to have them, I would rather opt for that.

I also think the fogless bumper looks much better then OEM LEDs and of course better then Expression kit. What do you think?

I'm pretty sure the C63 would get slightly different LED fogs than these, just like the new E63 has better looking (imo) LEDs than the regular E. Either way, can't wait to see what they come up with.

OM642 V6-CDI (E 350 CDI) with around 252 hp and 700 (!!) Nm
and some new 4-cylinder engines.

Der OM642 V6-CDI wird im C 350 CDI dann 252 PS und 700 NM leisten. Die neuen 4-Zylinder Turbo-Benzindirekteinspritzer sollen noch 2009 folgen. Es handelt sich um den C 250 CGI mit 204 PS (1,8 Liter), den C 200 CGI (1,8 Liter) und den C 180 CGI mit 156 PS und 1,6 Liter Hubraum. Das Interieur wird deutlich aufgewertet und am E-Klasse Coupé angelehnt. Der Comand-Display wird dann fest installiert sein. Des Weiteren erhält die C-Klasse dann neue Assistenzsysteme wie Attention Assist und Distronic Plus mit Totwinkelassistent.
