Hello all, today's write up is a solid black C63. The car received a 2 step process that took over 2 days to complete. I spent around 14 hours total. The protection is Opti Guard, the professional version of the ver popular Opti Coat. The wheels weren't terribly dirty, and the color doesn't really show dirt, but I cleaned them anyway. Wheels before: During: All cleaned up: Exhaust tips cleaned: I then foamed the car down with a strong mixture of soap and all purpose cleaner to strip existing protection, this also lets me see the real condition of the car: This is what I found after I stripped away the protection: The next set of photos are after polishing but prior to cleaning up and Opti Guarding: This last set of pictures are after cleaning up and coating applied: Thanks all everyone, thanks for looking!
agreed...we've had a couple of these cars get traded in at work.....my god that's a bad mamma jamma when you get behind the wheel.
Thanks guys! The owner told me which buttons to press so the car will "let loose", then he proceeded to tell me "feel free to take her to 150", lol.
Holy bajeezus!! LOVE that "flat bronze" color of the wheels. Dig the hell out of it. WOW. You crushed it bro, great job.
I think he would have to ask his father in law to build him more shelves...at least that's what I remember hearing where they came from Haha Very nice work on the paint, looks shiny and swirl free
Love the C63s. Shockingly so many people at the university next to mine have these... Ballers. A friend of a friend has a 2005 Gallardo and hes a student. Poker player on the side... The things I'd do to own these cars. The C63 should really have a manual though!
Yeah, first off you yeah its a AMG, but its still a C class in my book and Forgestar wheels are on par with Enkei, not to say that there is anything wrong, but IMO that wheel and tire combo is a step down from what AMG puts on it from the factory. Falken tires? No comment, the fitment is off too, but that is just me.......... im sure the owner loves it.
costco, for 120.00 you can get some really nice strong metal industrial rack shelves......... or have the old many come do it. EIther way, the crap on the floor, sad. Mike you should hang that picture too, your wife I KNOW is breathing down your neck over that one LOL
I was hoping to save some money for gladiator shelves in the garage, no thanks to ugly metal shelves from Costco, lol. As far as the floor..... We'll get around to do epoxy sooner or later, it looks much better than the beat up concrete that was there before, lol.
If you can find a guy to do pebble tech, it looks bad ass, very solvent resistant............ looks better then epoxy IMO. Yeah, the real way to go would be lockable gladiator type shelves and cabinets, knowing what happened last month. Try the KOBALT brand, just as good, but less
Mike, stellar job on the Benz! Ugly friggin wheels...I totally agree with Ken on that. Even the wheels nuts with 2 different colours?? Totally gay. Butt reaming gay. And, boy, do ever get ripped on over here, eh??
