Finally got around to installing the coilovers. It needs to go a little lower, but the rears a pia to adjust, so I'll tackle that another day. Heres a few iPhone pics. It's freezing here in NJ, so i didn't feel like sitting outside too long.

I like it. Black looks pretty good. The color compliments the lines on the sideskirts and spoiler/diffuser. Just add maybe a larger trunk spoiler and it'll make brains explode from optic orgasm. Reminds me of the Fast and the Furious 5: C63 Edition. Rice rocket ftw?!

looks really nice.good job.how do you like the h&r coilovers? those don't have adjustments for comp. and rebound like the KW3 right?.i guess thats why they are like half the price.

Lip looks great almost like a factory option. Darn near perfect.

Drop looks good, I like it a lot. How much lower did you set it? How much lower again are you planning to go? I have the H&R springs and I hope they are close to the stance you have now.

Car looks great and very nice shine.

Car rides great, and handles much better. They're only height adjustable which is all I need. I'm not tracking the car, so the KWs are over kill for me.
I got about another 1/2"-1" lower I can go. I'm gonna mess with it next weekend. Want it to sit just at the tire.

Def would like to hear it, maybe go for a ride to feel the difference. I too have the EC tune, and love it. Can only imagine how much more it pulls now with the headers.

Thanks Callmiro!!

Sounds good.

I'm always around the area. I have no problem shooting the breeze
with a fellow C63 owner. Just say when.

Car doesn't stop pulling and now it has the bark to go along with the bite.

Car looks fantastic.

Have you ever thought about plastidipping or doing a vinyl wrap on the chrome trim around the windows? Your car already has the evil blackout thing going on so that may even do it moreso.

In any case it looks awsome.

Yeah, I'm definitely wrapping the window trim. Don't think plastidip would work well on it. Going to wrap the top portion of the mirror housing also. Hate the huge chrome reflectors.

Your car is shinning Walter!! I love your drop, just perfect... I'd say live it as is... anything lower might give you headaches. Slap on the Rad, it will sure help on the sale. I still can't believe no one jumped on those yet @ your killer price.

I agree with you, this car should come with a little more aggressive trunk spoiler to balance the aggressive front bumper. I'm going that route this spring.

Looks awesome. You should get some of these for your front indicators. I just installed and they work and look great.

Thanks guys.. Yeah, can't believe I still have these wheels.. I'm pretty much giving them away.

I have the chrome bulbs in my garage with my painted side reflectors. Gotta install those this week.

May try out the Arkym truck lip add-on when i find a diffuser I like.

Stance and color-matched lip looks great. Now, you just have to be careful entering and exiting driveways.
