Looks GREAT!
I like the lights both ways, red or smoked. Maybe even the smoked can match the pano roof better...but havent seen pics of that combo..

nice car.... but you wont with some reall crappy rims no offense.

why would you go with such a high spoke wheel design to hide your Sick brake calipers???


those rims are disgusting.... i would have went with 20's like the Sevas Forged R55 or 360 forged rims especially on a s63 or any amg vechile period.


nice car by the way... just ditch the rims

The wheels look great on his car, and if you had ever seen them in person you would know that you can still see the brakes through the wheels. To go as far as calling them crappy or disgusting, especially when you are driving a 2003 S500 4Matic...that's comical.

Albert, it looks great. You have both, a CL63 and an S63? I am thinking about one or the other for my next car. I would appreciate it very much if you could post a comparison. Thanks.

thats not very nice but definitely comical though.

Thanks for your comment people. Yeah i m definitely smoking my tail lights now

Yeah I got back the CL from the workshop but the S is back in the workshop for taillights and tire sensor monitor problem. I had a bit of an accident with the curb last december and to cut the story short I got screwed when I repaired the car on the place where I bought it, ROYAL MOTOR in BH. To begin with the car was worse than when it came in. They Used the car for about 2000 miles, claiming they tried to take it to far far away dealerships to do the repairs even though i know for a fact they used it. It went in with 1500 miles and was there for 2 months because of parts and they did such a horrible job that I had to take it again to Lucent Motor and pay them extra $3000. What they found is bent control arms, missing Cover from one of the brake and They even charged my insurance company for new headlights even though I did not even touch the headlights during the accident Please take this as a cautionary tale and anybody should never do dealings with those scumbags.
I am contemplating of suing those B@$#@RD.

I would not hesitate to sue them if what you stated is accurate. That is beyond unacceptable. I would maybe even take time off of work to soley make it my business to get compensated in every way possible as well as alert all auto forums if they did that to my S63.
