I asked the dealership about the price for OEM. They can order them for $6k USD per pair. I told them to F off.

my wife bananas! :D
looks like it was a fun meet However, some of you boys need to start shopping for a nice cf diffuser. The oem plastic one for the normal c63s looks too meek.
cheers!

Hey man-

you might not have seen, but don't bash me. I have JL Motoring's CF DTM diffuser. So, I beg your pardon!!! I'm CF in style, front and back. I'm the white in the middle, next to the BS. Maybe the pics don't do it justice, but it's there.

oh, i see. jdubya didn't get a rear shot of my car. it's the only one that didn't get an *** shot.

Yeah, I'm glad I could help. I assume it was an easy tear down, repaint, and install? Glad I could show you how easy it was and I did get mine clipped back in.

ya getting it out was fairly easy, I then wanted to remove the chrome trim pieces but it I felt like I was going to break all the tabs etc. I just went ahead and masked off the grill/perforated area of the grill, quick wipe w/ some denatured alcohol, and then all the plastidip my heart desired.

I let it sit overnight, so I'm going to pull the masking and reinstall it tonight. Hopefully the results are fairly good.

Band-wagon poser!!!

It's about time. It makes the white so much better. And, I was glad to show you. And glad I got it back in before the drive. It looks good. How about pics on the car?

You were smart to not try. And glad you didn't. you would have ben unhappy, as you would have ruined your grille. And yes, the tabs would have broken. don't ask me how I know. I do not want to admit to such a dumb mistake on a previous grille.

finished up the plastidip fun, there were some mistakes so i ended up taking the plastidip off the star. I like it but may cover it up eventually.

Definitely. I have a weird request. Could you ask your dealership the price to replace your cf mirrors?

i originally bought this car to sell it in a bit, more as a quick hurrah, but i'm loving it more and more every day.

also most of my mod money goes to the track car
