TRANSFORMED! My C63 Black Series in Launch Spec!!

#AMG Solarbeam Yellow C63 Black for #Eid!! So guys welcome back to RBR! Many years ago, I fell in love with a certain yellow car on Top Gear. It was the then new #C63 AMG Black Series coupé being manhandled by Jeremy Clarkson and The Stig, and it’s an image that was etched into my mind!
Sadly, when the car itself was released to customers the launch spec both inside and out was not forthcoming to customers, unless you were ready to pay an additional £50k while having your car stripped apart!! Disappointment for myself and many others. Another colour from launch that i loved was Magno Night Black, also on a press car but this time the UK one, its even still on fleet to this day! That was a colour available to customers, but had very low uptake as people back then were nervous about matte paint.

So when I bought the car of my dreams some two years ago, I decided beforehand that I would transform it to the Launch Solarbeam Yellow spec eventually. And this is Stage 1 of the transformation!!

Now a colour change can be done in quite a few ways these days, the best of which is of course a full respray. But AMG would charge around 30k for this, and independents probably half this, meaning you need Bruce Wayne monies. Next best option is car dipping, with peelable paint but again the costs are very high, around a 5 figure sum in the UK!

So that leaves us with Vinyl! What’s great about this is we can protect the original paintwork and leave this project as 100% reverseable. Vinyl has also come a long way, and with Dub Customs I was able to create a colour vinyl wrap match based on the paint of AMG Solarbeam!
