A Few Questions... I Need Help!
Hello,
I have a few questions that I would like to know the answers of and I need your help MB World!
1) Where can i purchase a smoked side marker for the front bumper? I was thinking about installing a smoked and turn off the bulb? Has anyone done this before? The car is a 2014 C63 Coupe 507 Edition
2) I am looking to tune the car and I have noticed that the top tunes are EC, Wiestec, and Renntech? Do they void the cars warranty? I was aiming at Eurocharged specifically.
I have already ordered my Mode Carbon parts but they are out of stock and have been waiting for a month now so I will shoot the car after parts are installed. Coilovers arrive on Tuesday and will have them installed on Thursday! So here is a photo so far!

Got ya. You can actually get the sidemarkers on ebay. Some of the forums on here have links to them if you do a forum search for side marker. Supposedly, for a tune to void the warranty in the US, Mercedes has to prove the tune has caused the malfunction. From what members have posted, some are lucky and their dealer knows about all the mods/tune and does work under warranty and some have had other results.
I just purchased the Eurocharged tune because I can always load the stock back in with the handheld (may make it harder to detect?) because I don't want to have to pay for any work that I don't absolutely have to. I take comfort in the fact that the car is at the end of its production cycle and through the years a lot of problems, like the headbolts, have been identified and corrected.

Haven't tuned it yet. Trying to find a shop to install my crank pulley. Just ordered some ROW boxes and AFE pro dry s air filters. Want to get a before and after dyno if possible. I am honestly not expecting much. Main reason for the tune is to up the top speed so I can keep going when my buddy's RS5 hits the 174 limiter
