Hello all!
this forum has been awesome and given me a lot of motivation to finally pick up a bucket list car. 2011 C63 sedan, low KMs and in good shape. I was hoping for some info on a few parts. My car came with diy smoked tail lights, heavy on the dark and not my cup o tea. I dont think im ready for all the hassle to try and fit OE LED tails so im hoping to get some feedback on these depo tails. Had depo tails on my e46 M3 and they worked fantastic

Also, does any know if the 507 shifter boot and knob fit the prefacelift cars?
And last but not least, im looking for a brake pad suggestion. Car is a yearly DD along with the odd autoX and lapping day. I noticed right now my car lacks a lot of initial bite.
thanks !

Depo's seem to be the way to go for most of the swaps. Welcome though riteoff, be sure to post pics of the beast .
If you do consider doing the swap - https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...val-diy-s.html

As for your question on the 507 shifter boot yes it can be retrofit on a preface lift or facelift non 507. I did it ony 09 sedan.
Congrats on the cat and enjoy in good health!

Thanks for the kind words and guidance! Got the wheels sorted for summer. Also had my body shop paint the front markers body colour. My bumper is in pretty bad shape so a Euro bumper is on the list
Also, these taillights are fantastic if anyone is on the fence. Cleaner look, bright and with the amber turns gives that German nod.
