Thanks for the quick reply. I might go to Italy for 6 months next year and I'm thinking about shipping my car there. That's why I asked. And since my car is registered in FL and we don't have front license plates, will this be a problem for me? Sorry for the off topic.

Hi, it shouldn't be. Couple of things. Make sure you import car as temp import which is free of import tax and is good for 180 days within the EU or else they might make you pay 19% or substancial deposit until the car is re-exported back to US. This is a major pain in the butt. You will also need "green-card" insurance which is basic limited liability insurance. Send me PM and I will give you low down on shipping (RO/RO), customs, insurance etc.

Thanks, it was nice meeting you too.
I don't understand why you rated your rims 7/10. IMO they look amazing

The quality is amazing. I bought a CF diffuser for my wagon, but haven't installed it yet.

They are for sure a pain! They might pull you over but as long as it is temp import (keep the import paperwork in glove compartment to prove it is temp import) then this is within EU law and they cannot enforce local or EU law on things of this nature. The EU law on temp import was designed to allow tourists to bring their cars to Europe and as long as it was to spec in the country/state that it is titled in. If it is so, there is nothing they can do. I put front plate on my car as it is law here and the car is here on a permanent basis.

That is the diffuser I want.

Is that the OEM design?

Looks great.

Well, it is OEM for an Estate version of the C63. The diffuser looks a bit different than in the sedan. It is mounted a little lower within the rear bumper and the parking sensors are integrated in the diffuser.

Looks great.
