Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
I talk about my favorite cosmetic modifications for the W204 C63, most of which I have installed on my own car and made installation videos for. While some parts are specific to the facelift C63, there are plenty of options for the pre-facelift as well, and even the non-AMG W204. Check out the links below for the parts I talk about along with my installation videos! Let me know if you guys like this kind of content and what else you may like to see!

De-Chroming Certain Parts

Updated Black/Chrome W205 Hood Emblem
Due to how many fake versions of these are sold online, I decided to just put the part number below for you to buy the part from the dealer. I would definitely not want you to unintentionally end up with a "fake" part.

Tail Light Tint
Cut the following to size and you should get a similar result to me. There are several options for how dark you want to go, so check out the comments and look at the real pics people post of the vinyl.

12mm Spacers
Any brand of spacer will work, as long as it is hubcentric at 66.6mm and 5x112 bolt pattern. Only use hubcentric spacers, others types are not safe. Typing "12mm Mercedes spacer" into Amazon will get you a ton of results that already have the correct center bore and bolt pattern (double check of course). If you are not doing a stud conversion, be sure to get the correct length bolts. I have linked H&R spacers because the brand is well known and respected by most people. 12mm is the widest I would go with lowering springs, although I believe 15mm is doable with stock suspension.

Lug Stud Conversion
The length I have here is the perfect combination with 12mm spacers or less. Any wider spacers will require longer studs. Be sure to select the 5-lug R14 nuts.

Dude I have A white 507 and you literally just solved all of my issues in term of lowering springs and spacers. Your a legend. And we basically have the same taste. Thanks

Another one for this comment!! Was that 12mm spacers you said tho?
My 63 is black and I totally followed what you said about the classy look to it, I left my window sills and emblems/lettering chrome. I do want to get a full chrome grille over the 507 one that I currently have. Also went ahead a paint matched my side markers and it looks so clean 🤙

Yeah dude exactly! Love the classy chrome look on black cars, just suits them so well. Crazy how much of a difference changing up the side markers makes. Never one way of doing things with this type of stuff!
Great vid !! What did you paint your emblems with ?
Looks awesome! Did you have to do camber correction bolts when you installed the H&R springs?

i can’t find a blacked out front grill for my 2015 edition 507.
Will those exact wheel studs and spacers be good on stock suspension p31 multispoke wheels?

Yep, same wheel offsets. Only difference is it may not look as flush as your car isn't lowered, but it will still be an improvement
Shockingly I'm still on stock shocks and springs. It's about time to make a change. You referenced using koni or Bilstein shocks. As far as I know, no aftermarket shocks are available for the c63. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'd love to do an aftermarket shock with some h&r springs.

All this time I thought a Bilstein B8 existed for our cars but apparently not anymore. Just asked a friend who told me he had them but they went out of production severeal years ago unfortunately, who knows why. Koni appears to have their Yellows "sport shocks" available for W204, but they don't mention anything about the 63, so I might have to email them. If I don't just end up buying the same oem struts when the time comes, I'll probably get KW V3 coilovers.

@@SamAbraham I think it's a bit of a missed opportunity that koni not Bilstein have anything for us. I actually thought about getting the shocks for the w204 and just giving it a shot. I know kws are the obvious choice but I tend to prefer shock and spring combos. Coilovers can be annoying on a daily

@@the_canyon_carver Yeah definitely strange there aren't any popular or well known options for us. Believe it or not the KWs are pretty much just as comfortable as the stock suspension but superior in any performance setting. Great levels of adjustable dampening, buddy of mine has them on his C63 and its like magic
