This is the current look on the coupe

From the beginning...

not so hot when it was stock

The first two mods I purchased were the clear side markers and the Bi-Xenon Headlights.  The headlights had to wait since I had to find someone to re-program the car to accept them

So I installed the sides markers along with the 05 shift knob I ordered shortly after.

Next was the first (and currently only) performance mod, if you could call it that since yiled is +/- 1hp.

I had a good little start, all these were done Aug. 07, last mod for the month was debadging the car. The following month was AMG belt pads, matte black grill, AMG Pedals, clear 05 mirror blinkers, and ding the armrest black. Month after finally found someone to do the Xenon = Present on the car, 10k bulbs.  Lights have clear bra to protect against the evil rocks and debris on roads. I also painted the flat hood emblem black leaving the star chrome, So far I haven't seen anyone else like this, some are pained all. Also smoked the tails to get rid of the pinkish reverse.

The mod bug was put on hold for several months, found a set of 18" Brabus Monoblocks VI wrapped in Pirellis. By November 2008 I finally had 20% tint installed and I also added moleskin.  AMG valve caps, AMG door pins, and Amg lanyard was purchased as well.

Dec. 2008 - 05 aftermarket 3 Slant Grill (currently first and only with this grill) 05 Euro Tails tinted

Custom black fogs, the gray interior part painted.  Dashboard dyed black, center consol and pillars wrapped in black vinyl.  Chroms slants on grill also wrapped.  I took out the factory plastic mesh when I installed the bi-xenons but never put in the new mesh.  Finally did, the same mesh used typicall on bodykits, similar to the amg but not as thick.

Thanks for the comment bro, appreciate it. Have you seen the C-Class Coupe Wide Body Conversion I made on my Garage? If you haven't please check it out. I've just sent one set to a customer in UK for the Gumball 8000 Rally there. Let me know what you think, thanks.
