is the fender flare of the ML63 an attachment only or its part of the fender itself. say you want your ML (non-AMG) to look like the 63, of course you have to get the AMG Package but it doesn't have the flare on the fenders. if you want to have that, do you replace the whole fender or its only an attachment where it has its own part#, order it and install it.

Interesting observation. I didnt notice that.

I'd love to get those 20" AMG wheels and the tires as well. My configured ML350 is already $65k before taxes, etc. At some point it might be cheaper to just get the ML63

SL%%

You have a good point there but is it really worth it to get a ML63? I mean gas mileage alone will already rip your account unless you're earning 6 digits a year NET

Vik888

Actually, if I wanted to spend that much I'd probably just get a SL55 or SL550 that I was about to buy last year. Decided to buy this instead and use the rest of the money towards another plane.

The Fender Flares are an add-on. You should get them if you already have the amg package.

SL%%

So just get the fender flares and the 20" (Is that 20" on the stock ML63?) and good to go?

Vik888

Funny thing is .. if you click on the AMG Sports Package for the ML, it shows the fender flares in the picture ...

Or am I seeing things? Or are they showing people a ML63 hoping they'll drop $4.5k for the sports package?

SL%%

Vik888

It does have the fender flares but what I'm trying to point is the "EXTENDED FLARES" that the ML63 have but not present with the AMG SPORT PACKAGE for the 350, 320CDI and 500. Refer to the image and I encircled the "Extended Flares" as what we may call it hahahhahahahaha

Vik888

Ah I see what you mean. Good job w/ the MS Paint

Definately gives it a wider more aggressive stance. Now I'm curious too. I might want them

I just found out they sell 19" 5 spoke AMG wheels on the ML63 in Europe. I wonder if I could get those wheels on my ML350. Its the same design as the US ML63's 20" but they are 19"

SL%%, if you find out how much they are, the part #, cost and cost for labor, I'd be interested to know. Thanks.

SL%%

Vik888,

Sadly, I don't own a ML yet (planning to get one and want it to look like the 63) so I really don't know what the part# is but then, there is always the dealer (overpriced as usual to some) and this forum (anyone who knows the part#) who can always help us. hey, you might end up getting it first and hopefully would share the part# to us and all the other cost (labor, paint, installation) that went into it.

Really want a ML63 but guys like me who is more of a budget and practicality in terms of a SUV, the ML63 is way too much for me. Its a nice SUV, its fast, but I think the CDI is a good buy for me than the 63. anyway, that is for me, my opinion.

Vik888

I'm with you there. Its overkill for my use. I want the ML as a daily driver, so the ML350 w/ AMG Sports Package will do. If I had the money for a ML63 AMG I'd probably get the E63 or SL550.

Sadly, no CDI for me. I'm in California. Regardless, the milage on the ML350 of 17/21 is pretty good for such a heavy SUV.

Vik888,

If you're not really in a hurry, wait like a year the most and I GUARANTEE, somone, somewhere around US, he/she will sell his/her ML63 rims. Just wait and check out ebaymotors once in a while. I've seen a couple of SL55-030(PP) rims as well as for the SL65 so one way or another, someone will sell their rims. Bright side is, you get it cheaper (I hope)

BruNo

if u want part#s of amg parts for ML....goto www.mercedes-amg.com , you'll have all the numbers you want.

btw, anybody installed 20" ML63 rims on regular MLs with no fender flares? im curious if it would fit flush, or would go beyond the fender wells....

SL%%

BruNo,

Thanks, kababayan Also, checked the website, and yes they've got it but it doesn't particularly point out on the flares alone. The No. or shall I say code is (U49) which consists of the ff:

1.) AMG Front and Rear Aprons
2.) Flared Wheel Arches (which is what we are looking for)
3.) The 20" rims found on the ML63

So I guess it's better off to get any ML w/o the AMG Package from the dealer and order it separately so we can get (U49) so it would include the wheel arches, great. hahahahahahahaa

Vik888

I'm sure someone will create a kit of just the flared wheel arches. Should be in demand and I can't imagine them being too costly.

I'm curious too if the 19" (Euro) or 20" wheels for ML63 stick out if you don't have flared fenders.

BruNo

SL%% Kabayan,

AMG Wheel-Arch Flaring B6-603-6229

Another question, is the rear AMG Apron separate from the rear bumper just as the regular non-AMG bumper has a lower and upper part, or it it a one piece assembly?

Vik888

sweet, thanks Bruno. Now to see once I get my ML350 if the dealer can order and install it.

SL%%

Kababayan,

thanks for the helpful info. with regards to your question, the way I Look at it (I'm guessing here). it maybe a one piece assembly OR if its a two piece, it might be considered as one Part#.

I just base my own conclusions to what I observe and it may be true or false.

SL%%

Vik888,

you got the # and hopefully you can provide us with pics once you get one and installed

Just sharing what I found and you might have seen this already, just in case you haven't

Vik888

Great!! Thanks.

What is Interstate? That's the AMG accessory brochure. Is AMG marketed by Interstate in the Netherlands?

SL%%

GregW,

Interstate, as of what I noticed in the website, MIGHT BE a distributor in Netherlands. Am not sure but as to what you might have noticed, they also carry ALPINA for the Bimmers Lorinser also for the MB's. Maybe sort of a Tire Rack version in Netherlands. I'm just guessing here

Anyone from Netherlands here? Need Help translating here

Hey guys,
Are all the part numbers universal? So if I go to my MB dealer parts counter here in Canada could they order all the parts and pieces to complete a AMG body kit?

Also, anyone have any idea of cost for all the parts?
