The transformation of my C63
My C63 has been with me for quite some time and I have put it through many surgeries....
Here is the transformation!
When I first got the car!
Blacked Out!!!!!!
1 week after blacking out, some women hit me, it's okay since insurance covered!
Then my custom exhaust comes in
Matte Black Vinyl Job!

Forgestar Rims!!!!!!

[The pictures above was my FIRST Vinyl Job which turned out terrible with a lot of white showing]
After, I put on my forgestar rims for under 100KM I have to put on my stock rims for winter driving, snow tires.
Snow died down a bit after the last month, so here is my FINAL mod on my C63 (well I hope it will be FINAL)

Well, I only have springs left from the install.
Then I should be done
Enjoy!!!

Car looks great, here are a couple simple things i think would make it look even better:
1. Remove the black smoke/tint on lights, fogs, mirror lamps (Will give the car a much cleaner overall look)
2. Wrap the smoked reflectors with matte black vinyl

Nice post, tell us about the calipers - color, paint or powdercoat? I think you did a good job. might as well tint the front window...it looks like its semi-complete

Great transformation!! Your rims look huge... specs please? You should have went with matte black instead of glossy black on the HRE, it would flows great with the car theme. Great job nonetheless!!

It's been just under a year, its holding up really well, in the pictures it just doesn't look good because I have not washed it for a few months
I actually really like the smoked lights and everything because the contrast would look kind of weird (at least to me) at least because I saw this
They are painted, should be Brembo Orange
I actually got it done matte black quiet a while ago, only posted a picture or two on the image thread and I wanted to finish my project before anyone else see it.
Yup! Everythingggg I do I do it biggggggggg
Of course! That turned out great, thanks so much man!
I don't have full specs on me at the moment but they are 20's , also why I went with Gloss black is because it's something new and it would be good contrast and I think it turned out great... As you can see above my Forgestars are Matte Black!
Nope they are HRE P40
the HRE M43 looks like this

Also, thanks for the great and kind words guys, I am really happy with the outcome.
Hope you guys like them as much as I do. (and trust me I love them, I installed summer tires even though we still have snow days.)
haha

Tire shine, Jeffield, tire shine! 
Also, try taking the photos from a lower angle. Use a tripod if necessary. Can't wait to see the car with the H&R springs installed.

Hey Jeffield, were you at No.3's superstore's BBQ pork take out a couple of days ago? I saw an exact same set up (well except the original wheels) of C63 at there, and the car looks so so so sick!!! BTW, did you get your vinyl wrapped in SR? Thanks man.

Thanks!
Yeah I was, was preparing it for the rims.
It's done now.
My car is wrapped by the person who vinyl SR's cars but i privately contacted him.
But today I got my car lowered at SR
Here is a sneak picture!
