Another new project! Mercedes C55 AMG W203

Thank you! 🙏

I was hoping no one would spot the position of the badges 😆
You are right, they're not in the correct places but at some point, the previous owner removed the badges and then the AMG one was added on again but in the wrong place :doh:. It should have been put slightly higher and more to the left. As I didn't want to mess about with it just in case there was any imperfections behind the AMG letters, I added the C55 same position as the AMG one
I’m sure it would be fine behind the badges, gentle heat and they’ll come straight off.

Would literally bug the hell out of me 😅

Come on Mr. OCD get the hair dryer out! 😂🤣:)
 
Hi everyone

The project is all done now.
I took a few photos now that the car had paint correction completed and here is the end results



























Lovely job, and great cars too. Well done 👍🏻
 
Two stunning cars mate. But do you actually drive them after all that hard work. I must say, I’d be very reluctant.

I drive them but not every day and if the weather is bad, I avoid taking them out as so much work and effort goes to the underside, I feel bad to get it all dirty again.

I did use the C55 yesterday and today I used the S63 for a car meet in the morning and then drove the C55 as it’s gone to have some more work done to it…….. it will all be revealed soon :)
 
Just checking in to say hi on here, as I was browsing the forum to try and find a heated seat fix for my C55 and realised that a) I spoke to you via eBay last week regarding putting this car on my "C55 Register" and b) I am now double annoyed as I seem to have missed you at MBW on Sunday, but I think I saw your lovely S63!

Hello Max!
Yes we did speak last week regarding the C55 register :)
I realised now as I was reading your thread that it was actually you I spoke to through eBay and the estate C55 was your car.
I was actually explaining to my wife at the meet that someone is trying to find how many C55’s are out there and that the guy I spoke with had a C55 estate. I said, imagine if this C55 belongs to the guy I spoke to!
It was actually you 😆
Shame we didn’t get a chance to meet but I’m sure there will be other meets :)
Thank you. I wanted to bring the C55 as well but I couldn’t find anyone that could drive the other cars
 
Be nice when it's finished.....you missed a bit.

The valance part below the windscreen should be darker , mine too is dulled and grey (bit like me) , I took it off buffed it up with some black bumper shine, old product I found lying around in the garage.

Didn't last long , gone grey again.

What it needs is someone like you Sam to find the right product for the job and share it with us on here ;).

Sorry to take advantage of your good nature and attention to detail for my own nefarious benefit.

PS. I am only jealous , my C55 is no where near as shiny :banana:

Someone on here recently used Gtechniq C4 trim restorer

C4 Permanent Trim Restorer - Gtechniq

I think in the past, I saw someone use C5 ceramic coating as well in another thread. Maybe on the now grey plastic on the top of the wiper arm stud covers.
 
I can vouch for Gtechniq C4. I put it on about once a year, :thumb: but obviously dependant on usage or if the car is garaged or not.
