Picked up my car last night from the shop after having it wrapped. Charcoal Matte Metallic. Today was the first time I saw it during the day and pictures don't do it any justice. Windows are being tinted this week, and then I should be set for the most part.

I've debated lowering it, but the roads here in DFW suck. Only other thing I would consider is the right set of wheels. I don't want to do black wheels, but something a bit bigger and more open would be it...

Anyways, enough rambling...onto the pics! Comments/Criticism always welcome. it's been a while since I've busted out the proper camera, so go easy on me!























These pics actually came from my phone!!

 

Looks awesome! They do the chrome and badges in black for you too? Noticed they wrapped over the sider markers, looks really clean

I've really been thinking of wrapping my spoiler and chrome rather than replacing it

 

They did, all the emblems and grille were done in Plastidip actually!

 

Whatever they did it looks awesome. Won't see another one around town that looks like yours

 

Looks awesome. Not a fan of full vehicle wraps in general, but like the look of this. What color is the original paint? Some dark wheels would be awesome. Nice

 

That looks great
And nice pics, I love the angles/perspectives...well done

Edit: after another look you REALLY have a good eye for picking the picture angles

 

Thank you! The original color is Capri Blue.

 

Btw
The car does not need lowered imo
And the wheels look perfect
Do you have spacers?

 

No spacers

 

Very nice... I know you said you did not want to do black wheels, BUT black wheels will look better than any other color IMO especially with the wrap. Maybe a gloss black will really pop wth the matte grey.

 

looks great! and yeah, black wheels will really set it off. did you plasti dip the original emblems and glue them back?

 

The guys that did the wrap did the emblems as well. I need to redo them though as they didn't put enough coats on.

 

that looks great!

 

+1 for black wheels with 275/245s and tint

 

looks great!

 

THAT LOOKS AMAZING.

LOVE IT.

 

looks great. price for wrap?

 

Looks great love the colour

 

The wrap looks great. Just like getting a new car. The color looks a bit like matte Palladium and suites the car perfectly.

 

That came out looking really good. I want to do my badging, grill, and crappy looking chrome fog lights in dip.

 

This... if you don't mind saying... I'd love to know who did the wrap, and how much Dinero.

I'm thinking of picking up something up but it's in a color I don't like and I'm curious what it would cost to wrap it vs waiting for one in a color I like.

 

I got it done at no cost to me through a friend. He does commercial real estate, got them a screaming deal on their newest location, and they offered him to wrap his car, but he didn't want it so he gave it to me!

 

Love the wrap.

Definitely needs some H&R springs. Sit too high for my liking

 

Imo the oem wheels are dark enough, a complimentory color
I have some oem powder coated low gloss black wheels
Don't get me wrong, they look great on my iridium silver
I have oem also and can't say which is better, both are great
Personal taste and preference

Do spacers, they really give it a bit of stance 'attitude'

Lowering
Take your mate for a ride
Pull up parallel to a large reflective window
Look at the car from a few angles ( and you sure know how to use them to flatter the car lol)
I think you'll be pleasantly surprised
If not H&R are a good option

Had Eibach on my e36 and e46 M3's
H&R on the RS4
I think the C63 is fine as is, one of the few that I see that way
The H&R must lower the rear more?

On mine the rear lip height and tire to lip are greater than the front
Both by 8-9 mm
The front tire is taller by 10 mm which is a variable
I was thinking of lowering the rear by 8 mm with pads
Then using 235/265 tires so the tire height is the same
This will make the F and R the same
Height 25.9" or so
Gap 0.5" or so, tires are about 25.4"
My eibachs lowered the rear more and it was in their specs
It transfers weight rearward and improves balance a bit
f/r iirc 0.75/1.00"

 

What size spacers do you recommend?
