Stormtrooper 507
Finally got around to posting pics of my cosmetic update. Had it done for a few weeks now, just getting around to post. I had the amber side-markers body-color paint matched. Also had the insides of them sprayed as well, black undercoat to avoid the orange glow. It worked out very nicely. I also had the chrome trim piece on the trunk, above the license plate painted body-color match.
The front grille and passenger door side arches painted as well, semi-gloss black to match all of the other black pieces on the car. I have always had the front grilles painted, never had an issue with major rock chips or having to re-paint. On my last C63, I had the door arches wrapped. This time I had them painted and I think that they look great. We will see how time will treat them, but I was glad to have everything painted this time.
And finally, the CF big-fin diffuser that I've had a my house LONG before I had my 507 on order installed. Finally!!! I really like the look of it, obviously I think any choice other than OEM is a much better look on the rear than what MB has produced and installed.
Anyway, here are some pics to enjoy and maybe give some of you an idea what your C63 could look like, cosmetically.
The performance mods are happening in a few weeks: Kleemann long-tubes/Quaife LSD/Carbonio air-box/Weistec catch can I will definitely follow up with that after post and all my Dyno results.
Amber side-marker delete:
Close-up to show color match:
Rear trim piece color match:
Door arches:
CF big-fin diffuser:
Finally, some full car shots of the Stormtrooper effect. This 507 is nothing but Black and White!!! Pretty sinister looking for a non-black car...........I think.

Do you have a better pic of your rear end? I always wondered how will the car look with the trunk lid chrome piece painted in white.
By the way did you get your wheels replaced?

Oh yeah! Well there's that.
I will get a full rear shot for you. I was just trying to show how well matched it was. And yes, I got my wheels sorted out. That's why I could finally start this thread. Those are actually them in that last shot. I had to buy both wheels. It definitely hurt.
No, it's from JL Motoring.
