Didn't think about C63 at all, too aggressive for my taste, just wanted that simple factory look, and still different from the normal C300. If you know what I mean.

Caution!!!
I ordered those from eBay. Came fron China. i thought I might give them a try since they were only 20 bucks. They came with their own adhesive strip. Looked really good for about 4 days. Then it was a mess. Apparently (it happened after I drove the car while raining) the adhesive could not handle the heat and started dripping a yellowish brown residue which then hardened. had to take the whole exhaust tip out and after a couple of hours trying different cleaning agents and then polish (with a lot of elbow grease) it finnaly came out. Here is a pic of the right side but the left side was worse.
i don't know if this could happen to you.

You need to make sure that you use high-temperature adhesive to glue on. The glue I used can withhold temperatures up to 250C, and it was clear like silicone, so I've had it on for over a week now, with no issues.
