Carbon Fiber Pkg 1 : $2950 Pkg 2 : $1750

I have a 2019 E63s on order. Color Magno Gray. I am thinking of adding the Carbon Fiber packages..

How desirable are these exterior Carbon Fiber pkgs offered from Mercedes?
Is this a nice option?
Is it worth getting carbon fiber on a Magno Gray?
Does anyone have pictures you can share with the CB exterior pieces?

My car is magno grey. When I built my order I did not get the CF trim package with the mirrors and rear spoiler. The mirrors would have been OK as they're already black with the night package, but the rear spoiler is not. So, to me it felt like adding the CF spoiler would look like tacked on bling, i.e. trying too hard.

I've since seen a few with it, and they do look nice. I think if I had gone with that trim package I'd be totally fine with it.

The other exterior CF trim is all down low and blends in very nicely with the night package. I'm really happy with it.

I felt that the CF engine cover was not worth the cost. Having seen one, I'm pretty much still of that opinion. If the price were about half, then maybe . . .

I got mine with everything because you end up spending that much might as well add a few more $$ to get the way you want it so you don't regret anything in the future. I have with carbon fiber engine cover also but thats not a requirement just something if you want I guess. But Carbon 1 and & 2 definitely make the car complete.

Thanks guys.

If anyone can post some pictures of these carbon fiber pieces on the car that would be awesome. For now changing my order to CF 1 and 2.

My selenite magno grey wagon has both packages. The interior looks so much better with it as it has plenty of carbon in it. The outside could def use more carbon, pieces are nice but subtle

Here's a walk-around of my car on delivery day in Germany.

So you can see one without the CF mirrors and rear spoiler, but with the lower CF package.

Was just notified now that:

I added CF pkg1, but CFpk2 is backordered (mirrors and spoiler)

I guess i am not able to get the mirrors and spoiler because of back-order

Thank you! Looks like i will not be able to get the mirrors and spoiler after all because that package is on back order... so might end up looking just like yours...

I'll be happy to take some pics. I just have to use my sir camera as iphone x pics have not detail. As you can see on the other poster's walk around video, carbon pieces are subtle and less conspicuous on selenite magno but still worth it imo. Sorry to hear they are on backorder now but I'm sure you can add those pieces later on

I have Selenite Gray and ordered both carbon fibre packages. I was wondering how the carbon fibre would turn out on gray. I am very happy with the car, the carbon fibre especially pops in the sunlight.

Carbon mirror caps only come with the package, which also includes the carbon fiber rear trunk spoiler, this package is back ordered, so no you cannot just get the mirror caps..

Does anyone have a wagon order outstanding that allows for the ordering of the carbon mirror caps?

I’m wondering if the supply contraint is the caps, the sedan spoiler, or both...

Did your order lock already? When is your scheduled production date?

Supply issue until 2/2019 seems crazy!

Has not locked yet but will soon.




Production is scheduled for the first 10 days of July. We don't have anymore allocations for the rest of the year at this point. Hard to say if and when the next few cars will get built with carbon fiber package 11.

that’s the answer i got... 🤷*♂️

So the system deleted your request for Carbon Fiber Package 1 then? Or the request is on your allocation, but no one knows if it'll actually be put on the car? Ugh. Nightmare.

I understand this as simply "no more available Carbon Fiber Package 1 until further notice from Germany.."
