Had this oem E63 diffuser sitting in my garage for a while. Finally installed it today. Perfect fit and 30mins tops. I really like how the larger diffuser hides all that airmatic stuff in the rear. Quad tips will be next, and maybe same time as remote cutouts.

how does look with the stock tips? Looks like the cutout is too big.

The stock tips would definitely look awkward in those openings. The E63 openings are wider, taller and angled differently towards the middle. I chose to run with no tips until I get these installed.

Nice. Was it just unbolt and rebolt with plag and play easy? How many Bolts inside the trunk ? Video diy? Thanks.
I"m sorry I didn't see this post. Yeah plug and play with no error messages. If i remember correctly, there's 3 bolts. It's very simple and once you do the first one you'll fly through the next one.

I finally had the E63 tips installed. Came out great.
Now to rebadge....just kidding!
My Edition 1 side stripes arrived. But those will be last to go on after the new wheels.
G'day all, this is my 2012 E350 Australian-delivered Avantgarde V6 Sedan with AMG pack. It only had 29,000km when I bought it a month ago.
I have fitted 20x9 (+32mm with 245/30 97Y) and 20x10 (+40 with 275/30 97Y) Koya SF11 semi-forged wheels, Megan Racing Euro Series coilovers, RW Carbon DTM spoiler and some other styling mods incl. the all-black grille and star emblem delete. I'm a vehicle spray painter and own a bodyshop (Paintwerks) in Melbourne so the other day I decided to paint the roof gloss black. Really happy with the look.
I'll also be spray tinting the taillights (not too dark), refinishing the brake calipers, debadging the Blue Efficiency emblems and I have a Godhand carbon front lip on order. Thinking of also painting the chrome strip between the taillights and the DRL surrounds in gloss black. I could also do the lower door strips in gloss black but if not, I'd still leave them on in chrome because I like them. Thoughts?
Might black out the headlight surrounds too. I love modding....it's an affliction!
Cheers,
Sime

Sorry...I'm confused. The strips look bad in black? The DRL surrounds? Care to elaborate please?
...the black grille, the black star emblem, the gold wheels, the carbon fiber spoiler, the slammed stance, the fake pano roof...and last, BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST, the AMG badge!

Need I say more?
Oh well, thanks for your brutal honesty. Each to their own if you're not a fan....you're entitled to your opinion.
In any event, I wasn't 'trying' for a fake pano roof. I simply like the gloss black roof look. And my car does have the factory AMG pack.
