Straight from the dealer to Xclusv Autosports.

So as some of you might know already from my previous thread, I picked up a 2013 c63 sedan last week. The car was delivered straight to Xclusv Autosports in Staten Island NY. Previously to the car arriving, I already had parts waiting such as 3" mid section from FMU, KW V3 and custom wheels from Rotiform that they had sent me raw so I can do the finishing work. Xclusv Autosports did what they had to do in record time since I needed the car back to go to a show in Helen GA called Southern Worthersee. They painted all of the chrome trim/moldings/emblems black and calipers polar white. and shaved the front bumper plate holes and side markers. I will add more photos within a few days but for now I will post up everything I took during the build.

Wheels fresh out of the box prior to sand blasting.


After sand blasting.




On the rack ready for some powder.








Gloss black lettering with matte black cap.


Some silicone.


Assembled with tires.


Bumper coming off.


An A8L that was also in the shop getting some work done.












Exhaust out so I could powder coat the tips matte black.


Coils in




Diffuser getting some primer.




Calipers being assembled.






Powder coated Lugs


Shaving the markers.




Wheels on.





Handles on.




Bumper before clear.


Getting ready for some paint.




A big thanks goes out to Andrew Link Photography

Outstanding! Looks like your diffuser was being painted white. Did you change your mind on that?

No the diffuser was sprayed with primer and sanded twice to take away the textured finish. It is now a smooth gloss black piece.

Keep in mind that when painting everything on the trunk, and the badges on the fenders they do it with all brand new emblems hich are NOT cheap.

Have you checked out pricing for the emblems? The emblems alone are $300.00.

The trim has to be fully removed to paint it all. So you are disassembling the whole car basically. Front bumper has to come off for the front trims. Mirrors have to come off for the window trims. Door handles have to be removed and disassembled. The badges always come out like crap if you dont buy new ones.
