Congrats man! Your C63 really looks nice with the matte silver color.
Excellent Choice and combination
I just wanted to recommend that you install paint protection film on your car, i.e. ventureShield or SchotchGuard paint protection film, especially since it is matte paint.
P.M me if you're looking for good paint protection

Thanks! I do like the wheel style, and would prefer if they were all black. I do like the aggressive look of black wheels in general on cars. I am thinking about maybe putting on some spacers, to give the wheels a more flush look with the fender, again...need to do more research on offsets and spacers.
I did a lot of reading and searching posts and I decided to add 12 mm spacers all arround on my ride. It adds a nice touch of aggressiveness by bringing the wheels flush with the fenders, giving the impression of lower ride height at the same time. Plus its cheaper than coilovers and easily reversible if you change tires (for me it was important since I will put winter tires on). I have no issues with rubbing and have a similar setup (stock 19 inchers). Are you riding on Yokohamas or Continentals? from your pictures it looks like Contis... good for you as I have the Yokos and they wear out fast (already second set on back at 9000km!) and dont grip that much. Tried same car (C63 with p31) with Contis and they are awesome...

im new here, used to have a C350 saks fifth avenue edition ... last sunday i made the change ive always dreamt of .. I too am a proud owner of another matter grey edition 1 c63 .. purchased it from euromotorcars bethesda in Maryland .. Next time you see it in the DC area feel free to stop and say hi ..
the car does not show dirt or dust easily cause of the matter paint, however mud spots from rainy days are tough to get rid of .. any tips on how to care for the paint ?
also, im getting a 35% tint next weekend, and thinking of painting the brake calipers red .. would like some advice on spacers, brand and width ..

How could I miss this thread? Oh last post was after my being a member. I bought my magnetite around a month after you at FJ. I saw another Matt Silver edition 1 there that I almost pulled the trigger on but I was iffy on the matte finish. I can say that combo looks bad ***. It's crazy you got the M3 also, something I would love to have in the future. You should do a proper photoshoot with the two cars. Where is cars and coffee? a good meet would pictures galore would be nice.
