My New g63 with night package retrofit
Hi I would like to thank this forum for getting a 2020 Designo Graphite g63 at MSRP. Love everything about the car and would like to share some pics of my night package retrofit!

Looks great--out of curiosity how hard was it to remove the two pieces of trim on the rear bumper? I assume they are just stuck on with adhesive?

They were never removed, they were painted black.

Makes sense--I researched doing the same but could never figure how to best do the rear trim, so I just ended up ordering the night package.

Nice job. I see you blacked-out the rear reflectors, as I did, but I also blacked-out the back-up lights in the middle of the tail lights. Also, you can black-out the polished edge on the wheels, which really looks good.

Bob, thanks for the advice. I was planning on doing the tail light as well.

I see you did your exhaust and running boards as well, did you powder coat it?

The exhaust is powder-coated satin black and the running boards are vinyl wrapped in the same color.

There are pics of what I did in this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/g-class-w...pics-mods.html
