2014 E63 mods, lowering, paint wheels, calipers?
I am new to the online forum and I'm really excited to interact with all of you experts. This is my first Mercedes having owned multiple BMW in the past. 650 convertible, 328 convertible, and 750 Li among others. Loving the e63 but I think it needs a little spice. Just tinted the windows so far (will post current pics later but here is pre-tint). Any thoughts? I was thinking to change the caliper color to red and maybe powder coat the wheels a gunmetal or black... I'm not sure about lowering the car after reading in the forums about the rear airmatic. I guess I would only lower the fronts and that seems to be kind of a waste and I'm not sure I want to affect the ride quality either. Thanks in advance for your help!

Welcome to MBWorld. If you're going to powdercoat the wheels, I'd suggest wrapping the window trim as well so you get that continuous blacked out side profile. Personal aesthetics though.
Lowering will be a pain due to airmatic. I know some who have just scrapped the air suspension and gone back to more reliable, predictable, and cheaper to maintain steel suspension.
