My new C63 - loved, vandalized & repaired
I received my C63 in Jan. After an exhaustive search to find a great car that would fulfill my requirements for speed, comfort and "practicality" I decided on the new C63 and I have to say I still think it was a great decision.
A few weeks ago I decided to get some of the accents/trim painted. The day I was to bring it into the guys at ACG in San Diego to get painted my driver's side door was keyed by some cowered in a parking lot next to my gym. This person also had the audacity to leave me a note under my wiper chastising me for the way I parked and that I deserved to get my "nice car keyed." [FYI the parking lot was empty as it was 7am, on the passenger side was a cement pillar and to the left was my girlfriend's car, which was untouched]. I guess it was irony that it happened the day I brought it in to get painted.
Beyond that snafu, here are some pics of the work the guys at ACG did.
Here is all that was painted:
Chrome Grill - Black
Chrome Fog lamps - Black
Orange Side reflectors - Black
Scratched Driver's side door - repaired
Chrome Door trim - Black
Tail lights - Light smoke
Red Tail light borders and in between the red-white-red sections - Black
Chrome trunk accent - Black
Cheers,

Gorgeous. I have a white one and have a similar setup. I plan on de-chroming it and painting the grill black as well. i posted up a thread with pics a few pages back if you have some spare time and want to check it out 
Again, excellent choice in mods. I wish i got mine in black :/
And congratulations!
