Got my exhaust installed today. It's a TopSpeed catback for a c63, had to adjust the mounts on the mufflers a little bit, simply because the tips were sitting a bit low. Also installed the CF diffuser I picked up from John on this forum. I'm liking it, try to get a soundclip up soon.

I think you might want to have the driver side adjusted a little, it looks like its slightly slanted where as the passenger side is not.

Is the sound much different? I look forward to sound clips.

New sound is great, much deeper/throatier sound at low rpm, not too much louder at higher. I took one video, wasn't thrilled with the audio and haven't had time to get another yet. Link to the not so good sound quality video below:

Got the H&R springs installed yesterday, 17mm spring pads in the rear to even out the wheel gap. Wheels powdercoated brushed bronze. Really liking this color, because it is effectively a candy coat over brushed aluminum the color of the wheels changes under different lightning conditions. Chrome side molding removed. Washed and waxed her today. Will be putting gloss black vinyl over the rest of the chrome trim soon.

Thanks! got all three used from a member here (john1c). Front lip is a godhand style, spoiler is a "big cf trunk lip spoiler", both are plentiful on ebay. I was told the rear diffuser was a production prototype, so not many out there. I've never seen one like it for sale. Revozport style one is very close, also available on ebay.

All chrome bits on the grill wrapped in gloss black, silver bits dipped matte black. Rear chrome trim wrapped in gloss black, emblems dipped and glossified. Window trim will be wrapped in gloss black (had to order longer strips of vinyl...) And will either wrap or dip the led foglight trim depending on what looks to be easier this weekend.
