Just my 2c, you blacked out the window trim, now the rear is darkened, I feel like that trunk chrome beltline needs to get blacked too - it just seems very bright - and might as well debadge the s63 and amg too

Thank you, Jenz.

I considered blacking the rest but decided against it. I like the contrast.

It also seems I'm one of the few people who likes the AMG badge. Symmetry requires the S63 stay too :-)

The next set of changes will come when spring arrives and I switch to new Pirelli P Zero summer tires and probably new wheels from David.

Can you share a picture of your car? It'd be interesting to see what you did and how it looks.

Happy Holidays,
Dan

You'll see my bias

The black forged wheels are on it now like yours for the summer, use the silvers for the winter - I'm late doing the swap this year

I see what you did, Jenz, it looks great!

Elegant and tough at the same time.

Thanks for sharing!
