Just a quick update,
JNA diffuser installed,
For this install I removed the bumper and I am very glad I did. There is just no way to properly install this without removing it, I don't care what anyone says. If you want a proper install, flush look, REMOVE your BUMPER.
It takes literally 15 minutes to remove the bumper. In total, it's total of 4 bolts, 4 screws, and 4? tabs.
Now if you have an expensive diffuser with OEM tabs etc... this of course does not apply to you, you lucky *******.
This is the diffuser I installed. Notice the "tabs". Well once you insert these, you're supposed to bend them from the inside. yet, there is zero room to work with, hence, REMOVE your bumper.

Yup. Looks nice. Would rather take the extra time to take the bumper off and do it right, than just slap it on and hope it stays there. Good decision.

Soooo I’m back.... this time with a 2013 FL with 39k miles. After selling my 11, I ended up playing around with other models. E55 and the E63 bi-t was fun but for some reason nothing could make me smile like m156 did.
I have been on the search religiously for the right FL c63 for last 2-3 months. I almost bought one in CA that was posted on here but it sold before I could get to it.
I looked at few locally but were all trashed, or had high miles with price tags mid 20s.
Finally, I came across a 13 with 39k miles, call it 40k. Based on what’s out there I jumped and bought it within days. She will be delivered sometimes next week. Pics for now.

Very cool interior, I also have the black and white interior in my 507 but they do it a bit different, black inserts are MBTex and leather is white so seats look the same just MBTex in the middle but the doors panels are all black on mine with some MBTex inserts. My car is also Polar white with black wheels - killer look!
Yours looks great, never seen that interior on another car, congrats!

I bought this car again based on what engine is in it. I doubt we will ever see another one like it. So I’m undecided on going supercharged.

For starters I want to do full paint correction. Buffed, polished, and ceramic coat. Then add some cf goodies and change out the wheels. Performance wise, same as my old one: LTH, mid pipes, x pipe, EC tune. At this point you have one option, FI. Which I’m still debating.

yeah as much as I like the idea of a blower. The blower cars need tremendous cooling. Don’t want to Frankenstein this car.

Nit much to update these cold days. But I did take her in for an oil change, rotors, brakes and showroom detail.
Currently looking to source used MBH headers and weistec SC stg1/2. Going with new units in spring if nothing comes along.
