Updated S63 pics enjoy...

I finally had a chance to take some current pictures. I am interested in feedback especially on the wheels. When I first got it I had them polished and painted white. I liked the look but could not keep up with the brake dust so I decided to have them powder coated black. I really like the way it turned out.

That's the perfect combo to have with a pano roof. The wheels look great and really go well with the pano roof and tinted windows but at the same time gives the classy clean vibe

Thanks for the comments.
I ordered the key pad cover while I was waiting to take delivery on the car. It really looks good especially with the black wood. Some of the other things I did: ECU upgrade, lowered, integrated radar detector, rear spoiler. the car is so fun to drive.

I remember the white wheels looking great, but I don't doubt your hustle with the break dust.

The black ones are great too but the rear spoiler is not my thing. Great car
