Well, I was bored last two weeks and I DIY my C63. My friend stopped by and told me that I shouldn't mass around AMG car. What do you guys think?
I hope is not too cheesy.

Calipers are painted in red and rims are painted in satin black.

Antenna painted in red.


Painted all emblems in satin black.


My friend Art from DiamonBlack Exterior wrapped the hood and the grills.

 

All looks good but the hood wrap. But if you like it thats all that matters! It would only take 5 minutes to remove if you change your mind.

 

omg, the red calipers look good.

 

everything looks great except the hood wrap. it looks very cheesy but if you like it then thats all that matters.

 

Who's orange coupe in the background? Like to see some pics of it also!!

 

Hood wrap is not done yet because I am going to add red AMG logo on the stripes. It will stand out good I hope.

 

It's mine too.

I like the hood wrap from the front! Continue it over the windows to the trunk and I think it would look so sick! Nice job!

 

Please leave the hood alone and leave it white. The wheels look nice powder coated black with the red calipers...

BUT for the love of God please paint the antenna black.

 

Were you at the the AMG driving academy at Laguna Seca in Sept '11?

 

The C looks great

Where did you get the calipers painted ?

 

Sorry no. I have not been to one yet.

 

it would look even better with a drop

 

Yeah........where did you get the calipers painted and how much? Thanks.

 

cant' say i'm a fan of the red antenna or the hood wrap. The wheels and calipers look great though!

 

Looks awesome Dave. Not too crazy about the vinyl on the hood though. But as long as you like it.

I would also like to know where you got your calipers painted.
Can you PM the price?

I think im gonna change up the yellow if I ever get bored of it.

 

very nicee, what are tire specs and are u running spacers?

 

No spacers. Just tuned.

 

I did it myself. Easy! It only costs me $11.

 

I am going to paint the middle fin on the carbon fiber diffuser red and the front emblem on the hood red too. It should match up good.

 

crazy idea, but have you considered extending the hood wrap all the way back?

 

I like the brakes and wheels....

I'll stop there =O)

 

Awesome work Dave!
Which paint kit did you use?

 

 

A lot of people asked me how to paint my calipers. Here is how.

1. Take off the wheel.
2. Deep clean the caliper with Acetone.
3. Masking tape everything beside the caliper.
4. I skipped the primer so I just painted with Engine Enamel.
5. Wait for 15 minutes between each coat. I did 4 coats but apply a very light coat when you paint.
6. Wait for 1 hour before applying clear coat.
7. Put sticker on the caliper before clear coat. You can buy AMG stickers or decals online or your nearest powder coating shops. I got mine from Serge at Benzworks. http://www.ebay.com/itm/8-BLACK-MERC...9#ht_500wt_922
8. Apply a very light coat and wait for 15 minutes between each coat. I did 3 coats.
9. Apply a thick coat on your last clear coat till the caliper looks wet. Let it dry 3 hours or to speed up you can use a heat gun.




Looks not bad right!
