My C63 BS conversion....

This is my new project. After waiting 2 months all parts (almost 150 different pieces...), everything has finally been delivered today. The conversion work can start.....

I'm guessing a MB dealer? They look like OEM parts to me.

Just curious... by the time you purchase the C63, OEM BS parts and install wouldn't it be close in price to the BS anyway?

OP, which dealership in Miami did you get the parts from? I tried to get the CF pieces for the exterior to replace mine since I didn't the CF exterior package originally. The Orlando MB dealer said they couldn't order them back in November.

I purchased the parts from SGA Exclusive in Germany.SGA gave me a good price for the parts and a very good rebate on the CF parts, you have to take into account the shipping cost + eventual import tax, but still, it was still a very good deal.

Any chance you can tell us around how much you paid in total for the car and the conversion parts? I'm very curious how that price compares to the BS price.

It's just a little cheaper than the real one...I did not find any white color C63 black series for sale around me and furthermore I enjoy doing this kind of project....

I didn't know SGA were selling OEM parts?

Search for member Craiger, he has done a BS conversion from the dealership with OEM parts.

Its going to be easier than you think and look factory!! Congrats!!
You will need to come up with an exhaust option so be prepared.

My experience with buying the OEM parts is that its MUCH cheaper than buying the black series. Just my 2 cents.

If you are interested I can put you in touch with the local dealer here and he can give you a parts list and price.

Good luck and keep us updated.

Thanks for the advise Keith. Regarding the Exhaust I bought the Akrapovic slip on exhaust, and the shop is already working on the modification.
