I'm caught between "whoa that's amazing" and "why the heck would you do that?".
Originally a 2009 C63 Touring, Iridium Silver (as I've heard).
Thought of sharing this project with you guys. This car is in Brazil.
Although I'm more of a "stick to the OEM" car guy, I admit one must be brave enought to do such work. Not to mention the $$$ involved in buying all the parts and all the elbow grease.
Well, it's looking fierce. It's a pretty massive coffin carrier indeed.

It is funny how much work and money went into it but I see a bunch of things that lack detail - mesh in hood and fender grills is wrong, side emblem is wrong, wheels are wrong, they didn't paint the brake calipers red, the front bumper left and right side inlets are cutout very oddly leaving a funny area that should have been cut out further, fender grills are not in the right place and molded a bit different than oem, front grill fitment is terrible and diffuser fitment looks to be off also. Lack of obvious detail always means what you can't see is probably lacking even more detail in the workmanship.
A ton of work but a few loose ends as noted...... but as someone who always craved an RS6 Avant that Audi never decided we needed, I can get it....... and appreciate the effort.

Looks better than the sedan Black Series conversion IMHO.
^ Agreed.
The car is finished, and it’s already with the owner. Apparently, no work missing to be dome or redone. I also agree there are a few issues here and there, small details that could have been done more carefully.. But on behalf of the shop, it must’ve been a hell of a difficult job, trying to adapt all that wide body..
Well, it’s not my cup of tea, but most respect to the crazy guy who made it.

Fair enough.
