Great time lapse rage. How long did the wrapping process take?

 

Something like 25 or so hours of work total.

 

Wow, looks awesome.

 

Great job Rage! Is it time to get a new set of rims?

 

That looks phatttttt

If u guys don't mind me asking
What are ppl paying for this type of Job.
I'm looking to wrap mine but if it's going to cost the same as a whole trans upgrade I'll rather do that

 

The factory wheels are 9.5" wide, and can't fit anything wider than a 285. I need more rear tires, so I do need wheels. The rear fenders are already rolled from the factory, so there's not much room to work with on the outside (I measured maybe 4-5mm of clearance before rubbing). There's a bit of room on the inside, but 305's would be cutting it close. The CLK63 BS has a huge advantage here, it'll clear 305's no problem if you roll the fenders. On the outside alone, the CLK63 BS has 10mm of space to work with stock, 15mm with the fenders rolled. Pretty tight clearance from the factory with the C63 BS.

With that being said, I really like the look of the factory wheels, and haven't been able to find an aftermarket wheel that has the right look. So ya, still trying to decide what to do there.

Anywhere from 4-5k. I'm on the higher end of the spectrum, since I got the tails + reflectors matte tinted, windows tinted, and headlights tinted as well.

 

Whoa, the matte tint is a really nice touch. I wouldn't have noticed that otherwise, but I took a look again and it really adds to the overall look.

 

beautiful job.

so this is just a matte clear wrap? will it have the same effect if I do it on a non metallic black car (040).

also love your matte tinted tails. that looks sick.

 

Just WOW!

 

Never knew they tint ur windows matt! Nice job rage can't wait to see what devlope's for this car ... But the stock wheels do it for me

 

Nice work and cool vid!

 

Awesome video.. The car looks sick!! Wish I could afford a wrap job let alone affording a BS. Lol

 

Rage the car looks great! Your C63 was one of the cars that inspired me to wrap mine.

In the video it looks like they used multiple pieces of wrap to do the front bumper. If that is the case are the lines noticeble?

 

Meng after wrapping both my cars I've decided to get certified and do it on the side. If you are serious shoot me a text.

 

Rage, that is quite the work, I personally love the looks of the OEM wheels and they look quite wide, but a little more rubber is always good.

Andrei, I might give you a call about wrapping my car, just have to get might head into it!

 

Wanna do my truck...i just got a 2012 QX56????

 

Wow, that looks amazing. I would've thought that a matte wrap would clash, or take away from the matte wheels, but it doesn't now that I see it. Makes the car look even more aggressive.

 

going to have to agree... MB really did well in choosing a rim to go with the BS. The concave on the rears are simple amazing. Can't think of another rim (HRE included) that would give you the same aesthetic value

 

Looks fantastic!

 

what do you guys think will be the effect of satin wrapping a magno grey ... would it be more matte ? kinda looking for an even drier look

 

 

Mercedes did a great job with the new Black Series C63.

The OE wheel looks quite similar to our P43.



If you want to keep a very OE feel, maybe a P44SC or P47SC would do the job.

We are working on a Black Series right now that will be featured in May. Our wheel will likely be a lighter option from the OE wheel.

Sorry about this slight detour to the thread, but how much weight savings will be achieved with the HRE wheels for the BS. PM me if you want with this information and the prices.

 

you have a couple of ppl that do that in nyc. I was looking to get mine done, just waiting for the right time.
