What mods do you recommend for my c63?

I´m gonna have some work done on my Black C63 and was wondering what you recommend and how much you have paid for the job you had done..

I´m thinking of doing these:
- Light tail light tinting (not too much but slightly smoked lights look good IMO.)
- ECU tune (How much more HP will that give? About 70?)
- Parking sensors OR Rear view camera
- Bi-Xenons headlights (Don´t have P2...)
- Clear amber markers or paint them black...
- Radar detector (Prob just buy one cos the integrated ones are so expensive)
- Single bar grill (some concerns about how it fits..)
- Winter tires and wheels (ordered)

Thinking of:

- CF wrap inside trim (Didn´t like the burl walnut trim in the beginning but I kinda have got used to it a bit...). Not sure bout this one. I like the aluminium trim best.
- Also, have anyone any experience with or seen lambo doors on a C63? How would that look?

Thanks in advance!

Here is what I think.

Tune for sure
Tint tail lights is cool but not too dark
Rear view cam (you will need an interface to do this)
Xenons
Corners, tint or paint
Radar, I recommend the Bel RX75 Pro
Single bar looks good but I have yet to install one, so no idea on fitment

I would add:
Light window tint
cat back exhaust including X-pipe
AFE or other nice free flow filters

Let me know if you need help or have questions. PM me.

I prefer the parking sensors over a back-up camera, I just found it more practical and easier to use when I had both.

I´m with you on this one... Not sure how the aftermarket ones are tho (saw a thread about them here but still..). The back up camera is easier to install i think.

Vertical opening doors (aka "lambo" doors) would look HORRIBLE on a sedan. While the rest of the mods are aesthetic, if you actually wanna drive faster go to a driving school.

Ok I never said I will put lambo doors on mine I asked if anybody have any experience with them. I do agree, they would not look good on a sedan! But I would still like to see pics IF someone would have them on their car.

And what´s with the driving school thing? How do you know what races I have been in and what driving schools I have gone to? I am pretty sure I have raced more than most (not saying all) here and have done private lessons with pro drivers who have been and won in the F1. That does not mean I am the best driver here but I would race anybody. I love racing as prob most of you here do. It just bugs me that some ppl who prob never even been on a track says that.
