Thanks guys!! 
Its been a long three years.
Like he said the diffuser is from Revozport.
MTHIS - The rear tires are 335-30 18 on 11.5" wide wheels. The wheels are going to be widened to 12" so the tires fit more relaxed. Wasn't sure how wide the fenders were going to end up but I could easily get 345's or 355's under there. Dave at Sanford Paint and Body has outdone himself!! THANK YOU Dave!!
Since I have never seen another C63 the same color I did communicate with AMG and they only built one Barolo Red C63 and you are looking at it. Its a one of a kind in color.

Looks Killer!!! One question, were longer axles used? If not you are most likely going to run into some wheel bearing issues by just inserting 12" wides wheels with all that backspacing, (trust me I speak from experience on an E36). The load will not be distributed evenly with that amout of backspacing on a 12 inch wide wheel and you are always going to have alignment issues. You have dumped a ton of money into your beast why not drop a couple more on the axles and arms?
Thank you for the kuddos. That means a lot coming from you. You definitely have a one of a kind BS that will eventually fly. When you get that thing ironed out its gonna be VERY fast. I definitely have power envy.
I thought about the alignment concern when we started but these cars have crazy offsets. The stock HRE's had 8" inner barrels and 1.5" outers.
At least with the 12" wheels the inside remains 8" but the outer lip is now 4" which more evenly distributes the stress. The alignment went well and is holding good. I am waiting for HMS to come out with their kit. In the mean time if you want custom steel fenders you can have Dave do them for you at his shop. He does an incredible job and you could sit on these things and not crack. They are that sturdy.

I specifically asked AMG about the Barolo Red color and I was told there was one. Maybe they were talking about cars within the USA? I'll accept the fact there may be more out there.
I was just going by what they told me. Thanks for the compliments.
LON@HRE - What style and color wheel would you recommend in a 19" on this color car just for car shows??

Without a doubt, the meanest looking C63 ever! Barolo red just fits your car perfectly! Those plants in the background have grown a lot. You should put a black MB star on that trunk.
At one point, didn't you have plans for designing a new rear bumper?

So what exactly do your co-workers say and think when they see the Benz? LOL! That is, of course, assuming those pictures are from outside your work place.
Monster of a car though!
And could you take a picture with the camera parallel to the ground showing the rear of the car? Just curious to see how wide it REALLY is..
