Stock c63 coupe- Looking for BS Body kit
#26
Yes, jrcart has no idea what he is talking about.
To echo his comments below...
And to your original point, no issue if you can't afford a Black Series but just not understanding why are you trying to create a budget knock off on a leased vehicle. Please feel free to prove us wrong but based on the collective experience on this forum it is clear that trying the cheap/shortcut route will not yield the desired result.
More importantly, the C63 is truly a badass car in its own right... if anything you should look at wheels, springs, carbon trim bits, etc. Things are are easily reversed and have some resale value.
To each their own of course, good luck either way... and make sure you post pictures on how your project progresses.

Further more, I called him an idiot because he's inaccurate. It does not cost 20k to do this conversion. It costs 5k in parts + labour. If labour is free tell me mathematician what's my total cost?
Third, LEASES can be BOUGHT OUT. If I do the conversion and I like it, I may keep or buy out the car
but last and definitely not least - I did not ask you for your advice on my financials or choices. I asked where I could find the body kit etc.
You want respect, earn it by displaying to us you are capable of thinking like an adult. Kids today...

I wish Keith (DadsC63) would chime in, he was the first person to do a Black Series conversion, maybe he can explain to OP all that is involved and maybe OP will listen to what Keith has to say since appearently I am an idiot an know nothing.

Good luck with your conversion or whatever you decide to do.

Honestly, I was not trying to be an A hole in my first reply to OP, I even posted a link to the Misha body kit and website because Misha makes nice stuff at a fair price. I was honestly trying to give the OP some sound advice. OP is posting up links to photos aftermarket company show vehicles that they have invested tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars into the vehicles pictured and saying he wants his car to look like them. I know how it works, I own two of those types of aftermarket company show vehicles. If OP thinks he is going to send $5500 to some eBay seller and his car is going to look like the one in the sellers eBay listing he has a rude awakening instore. I am an enthusiest just like the OP and I do not want to see anyone get burned. We are talking about an $80k vehicle here, not some $3500 Civic, mistakes can get costly real fast on a Benz.

It surely has nothing to do with wanting to copy the black series and be fake, or cheap. There are none available here. I also have a DB9 that sits in the garage. Thinking of doing a vinyl wrap on it in matte dark grey with black rims. Summer is almost over though so... meh. The regular c63 coupe just looks so flat and plain to me. For 80k + the body should look like the black series without the wing etc, imo.

The BS is a special car, indeed. The c63 is a beast as well. Now only if they gave it somewhat wider rear fenders I'd be super.
jrcart. No hard feelings bro. Lets all kiss and makeup. Back to bed I go lol.
