Kicherer did it to this wagon and it came out great. Looks like the the hood doesn't line up perfectly as there is a bigger gap at the front than the rear of hood line. https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...ate-wagon.html

I'm really hoping the MY12 headlights are an easy retrofit - the new DRLs are CRAZY!

Does one need a new front SAM to get the lights working properly since the there isnt a fog light and a new LED DRL.

Sounds like an expensive mod with a minimal return on your investment (like most mods). But if you like it, go for it.

Agreed for the most part. Lookwise, I'm lukewaarm on the 2012 front end. However, the weight savings on the hood is quite a difference between our sheetmetal and 2012 aluminum hood. But for the money on the hood, I'd rather get a Dad's FRP hood. The one thing I like about the 2012 is the rear bumper and diffuser.

I'm interested in the headlights above all else. Wish they were plug and play without needed to swap hoods.

-1...headlights IMO feminize the car. The rear brake lights on the other hand are amazing...

will the 2012 front bumper fit without anything else changing?

i just got a close look at a silver 2012 c63 at the dealership and it looked like the blacked out portion in the middle is a add-on piece... the can anyone confirm this?
