All black C63?

So I'm starting to think about blacking out all the chrome on my C63 (except the emblems). Anyone have any thoughts or photos?

I understood the blackout look when I was 18, but now it seem juvenile in my opinion. I admit it does look good, but I just couldn’t see myself getting in and out of it at this point in my life. It almost looks like your trying to hard...

Agreed when it's a crappy black out job. But when done professionally and tastefully it can look absolutely sick.

Well, it hearkens back to the ORIGINAL AMG cars that were being built in the 80's, and one of their signatures was a mono-chromatic paint scheme. (yes I used to own a 500SEL AMG Stage II car, that was white/white, everything was white, even the AMG steering wheel, seats, etc etc, and all white exterior) Anyone remember the AMG Hammer??

There is this guy over on e46fanatics.com that does vinyl wrapping. I've heard nothing but good reviews about his work. He is located in Irvine.

http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthr...158&highlight=

He can also do CF vinyl wraps too. Just thought I'd share this info.

I had a AMG body kit on a 1984 190e back in the day and also had 3 190 e 16v. I always and still to this day would like to get my hands on a Evolution 1 or 2.
