New to the AMG world.
Hey Guys I just picked up my first AMG , its a 2010 c63 with 22000 miles. I bought it certified pre-owned from a dealership in New Hampshire . The car has carbon fiber fins on the bumper and a carbon fiber rear diffuser. I don't want to do anything that will mess up the warranty . Im looking at doing a front lip most preferably Vorsteiner if I could find one if not ill just settle for something that is carbon fiber. I also want to get the Tune2Air adapter . Are their any other parts I should look at getting?
Welcome to the forum, I doubt u will find a CF Vorsteiner front lip as it is discountinued & GMP tried to do a group buy to have Vorsteiner produce more, but that list never made it over 3-4 persons.
Congrats and welcome. Check out http://www.cnautofans.com, they carry some very similar name brand items . I just ordered/installed a rear spoiler from them, it fits and looks amazing. Search around though, ModeCarbon, RW Carbon and some others have really great items.

Putting a aftermarket tune on my ECU won't hurt my CPO Warranty? can't they tell after you mess with the ECU?
No they can't tell at the dealership. I have never read about engine failure or denial of warranty due to a tune either. Eurocharge has a handheld that comes with the tune. If you are really paranoid, you can always flash it back before going to the dealership (takes about 5-10 min). Eurocharge also offers a warranty on the engine after you apply the tune, it's pretty awesome.

False, the dealership can definitely tell if u have a tune or not regardless if u flash it back to stock or not. They won't care or search for it unless u have a warranty claim related to the ECU.
What kind of engine warranty does Eurocharged offers? That's news to me.
I always say "gotta pay to play" & be ready to deal with problems if smth goes wrong.

You are correct, I was trying to ease OP's mind since the dealer would never even think about looking unless there is an issue, like you said.

Pretty good except that I bought my car from owner with tune and he just got it put on a few months ago and this says the warranty doesn't transfer to me... Ehhhh
Please for the sake of god...RESEARCH your mods, don't just run into a EC V5 tune and all this other crap...just because little joey makes 450whp+ with a tune and some other basic mods doesn't mean you will..do research on the best tune for your location and same with other mods they all perform different in different enviroments
And get a LSD if you don't have it as the first mod.
EC's engine coverage is a load of ...., I blew up 2 intake manifolds running ECs tune..within 12 months too...and i know it was the tune because I ran V4 for over a year no issues, then V5 cames out... 2 blown intake manifolds. I doubt my car just randomly decided to blow up 2 intake manifolds within 12 months all on its own. I probably maintain my car more then anyone on this forum too..it has an issue, it goes in that week to be fixed, i don't let things just sit
EC is still a good tune but be careful and make sure the tune AFR etc is all set proper for your location because some cars might run to lean or rich which causes issues

Wow, yeah I'm pretty much good with the power the car has now . The only thing I would consider doing is a exhaust. I use my car to go to work which is about 70 miles a day. Im just enjoying it right now , not planning on beating on it just take care of it and enjoy it. I found a carbon fiber lip that mod bargains is selling that I'm considering.
My next car I have is currently in the shop , I had a 2006 bmw m5 It was garage kept bought it with 39000 miles and it has 43000 on it right now. I was coming home from work one day about a month ago and was stuck in a bit of traffic when somebody was driving recklessly and rear ended me the car sustained great damage . Im currently waiting 3 weeks later to see if their going to fix the car or total it. Everytime they examine the car the find more and more damage.
