2007 E63 AMG

New member from San Diego; currently in SF

Hi everyone,
I haven't formally introduced myself. I got my 2007 E63 about 6 weeks ago after having owned BMWs for the past 6 years. So, without further adieu here are some of my pics. Enjoy.

Stage 1 mods: 50% Formula One Pinnacle Series tint, custom Radenergie R10 (Diamond cut with chrome lip) and three-star badge delete

Stage 2 mods: Renntech Lowering module, charcoal and resonator delete, blacked out front grill, smoked taillights and body colored side reflectors

Some pictures prior to HIN Night Shift Pleasanton. The BMW behind me in this first pic below use to belong to me.

Some more from JDM Theory in San Jose

Random pics of my E63 and my buddy's M5.

Funny you should mention racing the black M5. We have been planning on doing a few spirited runs. Just a matter of when. And, when it does happen you can bet there will be a vid of it.

Wow great looking ride. Where did you get the black-out grill done?

My 63 is silver but not sure a silver grill would work

Is it lowered?

I have a great paint shop in Santa Clara that does all my paint work. Here's how a silver grill would look. And, my car is lowered with Renntech Lowering module.

I'm not sure to the exact weight, but the wheels are too heavy. I think the front is about 28 lbs and rears about 32 lbs, +/- a few pounds.

Yeah, but one of the best looking wheel for the E55, i think.

Just noticed this thread.

Great looking car,and yes these wheels are heavy.Also please check the all the bolts on your wheels,there has been a few members here have the bolts come out or loosen up on them.You definately dont want to have this happen.
