The headlights are stock (that picture was just really blue for some reason), and the eyelids are error-free LEDs off of eBay ($30-ish for a pair - the "white" ones match-ish the headlights and the "blue" are pretty close to the color in the pic).

To continue again...

I think I'm the only C63 to have these:





AMG Mobil 1 Sticker on my GL:



Normally I say no XXX, no badge, but since my car has unique improvements, I thought this Special Edition Plaque would be at least partially justified:



Custom OE Arctic White front license plate with 3M Di-Noc CF vinyl wrapped frame:



Gotta be a fan of MBCA (told them about my new toy & got $1,500 to spend at any MB authorized dealer (this promo is still going on I think)):

Not the only C63 with Illuminated Doors sills

Had these installed here in Europe 2 months ago. I kept the standard AMG lower sill plates as the lower plate that came with illuminated sills was simply blank and just did not look tight. Sorry for poor quality pics. A little over-kill on AMG branding, but what the hell. I also had CF door lock-pins installed as well as RTW airboxes all done at local MB dealer. More mods coming such as CF Front Diffuser, CF/Alloy Gear Shift, and others. Will post pics when done.

Awesome!

Yea - I was kind of thinking of finding non-AMG metal plates (the non-lighted AMG part), so there wouldn't be quite so much AMG everywhere. And awesome - definitely post pics of those other mods!

Painted the airbox (high temp Rustoleum and LOTS of masking tape) & got a new helmet!

Which engine do you have in the raptor? Sweet ride - does it jump like the Ford ads?

I got the 6.2, fully loaded - had all 4 tires in the air the morning after I picked it up! It's a sweet ride!

Loving the 63. You used that 3M DiNoc right? I may have to get some. I have been debating it for a while to do some small stuff on my Evo.

LOVE the CLS!
