Lol, just found out 12 hours ago, but I need to! Can you give me the best quality and fitment link? Probably the only wife approved mod and most important? Does it come in carbon fiber?

Yes

Mines stock. I'm not serious enough about cars anymore to mod. I prefer the conservative route of warranties, stock cars, and easy turn-arounds to the next car. The c63 is plenty aggressive as is....dabbled with a tune but I am pretty content as is. Doesn't mean i don't appreciate what others are doing, it's awesome, but not for me I don't think.

As for looks, frankly i prefer the stock look to just about anything out there(except for some of those very clean wide bodies and replacing stock wheels and a slight drop). The whole carbon fiber and lips everywhere look is just tacky to me.

My C63 is leased and under warranty, so I think it will stay stock, which is pretty intense as it is. Though the idea of cranking up the performance at relatively low cost does intrigue me.

Guess you didn't need my Viagra offer. :o Congrats.

I had enough of modding. The problems with my previous cars are that I never enjoy the full potential of the car stock, so why mod it.

Lol, couldn't help it, could you? I'll take your congrats though, and put a curse on you to have many babies.

"STOCK" ??

I think there is a clause in your purchase agreement that states you must modify your car within the first 90 days (like a probationary period) or it will be returned to the place of purchase.

I forget if the evosport is the racing brake rotors but the rbs are excellent products in design and fabrication. RB will wait until a product is well tested before releasing in my experience.

Haha.. I actually still have it but I have just stopped using it for now. My dad got the M9 Titanium recently but I'm not sure if I should use it or keep it in the box. lol. As for the lenses, you must be referring to the noctilux huh? 0.95 or f1?

To mod or not to mod

When the Warranty expires I will go mod crazy and tune the beejesus out of the car. Until then it is staying stock.
