Absolutely love these videos! Not filled with junk, quality work, you show a good amount of the work also not just finished products. This channel is amazing. I will continue to like every video you put out and support 👍🏻 best quality channel I’ve found on TH-cam !
I love your attention to detail. And I'm learning lots of tips along the way. Using a heat gun to improve the 3M VHB tape is a great idea. And reaching for a piece of rubber flooring instead of grabbing knee pads is genius. Thanks for the content.
Agreed! How does he know everything he knows? And it's not like he's familiar with one type of vehicle, he know how to work on multiple cars, old & new, German and American...
I remember the solution i came up with while restoring my 95 Mustang. I wanted the cobra center caps, but they only come black with a chrome snake. I needed the call to be white with a cobra snake. It took me a while to figure out how to make these caps for my TSW wheels. The mustang is white, my wheels are white and i have my white cobra caps. The red calipers are dope. Another good color option could have been Brembo gold💪
@@ChrisSullivan69 it looks good bro. Good job💪 what my boys and i used to do (in our ricer days) is get the red paint in florescent red paint and paint the calipers with that over some high temp caliper primer. Talk about bright at night👀
@@ChrisSullivan69 hi one year after durable? engine? how many miles you drove with that model? if true e models durable. few cls55 amg also it looks good and cheaper
I did the same trick with my C8 center caps over to a set of Vossen's over the winter. I hit them with a heat gun and to logo part separated from the clip and used VHB tape like you. Have driven them maybe 500 miles since then and still one there nice and secure
So your E63 Series has motivated me to get my 2007 E63 back in shape. 220Kmi, all me. Started getting the dreaded valve tappet sound caused by the cam slapping the lifter. Even set off the knock sensor to give me a check engine light. Can't pass inspection. So, my list: Replace Tappets Replace Cams ($3K - ouch) Replace the Lock plates (likely get the stage II like it seems you did) Replace air suspension pump Replace steering fluid Replace transmission pan (Weistec $700, but now I can change my own transmission fluid) I'll skip the cosmetic items. If there is any way to add tightening patterns and torque specs from the time you replaced the lifters, would appreciate it!. You have about 50% in the video.
Hey man ! Just a Kid from NYC. Been watching your videos since the 99 ss. Love your videos and hope to be as nice as you are with the cars man. You truly inspire me. Not sure what you do for work but you’re probably good at that too man. Recently having problems with my heart at 21 y/o keep the videos up it makes me feel better fr
I know this is old brother but man, switching the steering wheel imo was just incredible, that old looking odd shaped one had to go, now inside and outside just… just F*** beautiful, I never thought a stock “ish” Mercedes would sound so nasty! It’s intimidating lol love it for sure, can’t wait to see more of this beaut
Man, I'm surprised at the quality of the finish using spray paint on the calipers! Lays down really nice, almost like powder coat. Car sounds incredible btw
Wow, Chris awesome video and the car is amazing!!! I have had a few AMG cars. Always enjoyed them. They are sleeper cars, the average person has no idea about the performance of AMG cars. Your car is a perfect daily driver car and I learned a few things from watching you. I liked the lift technique to help get loose the harassing bolt. Great effort on the center caps and the caliper paint job. Came out just like OEM. You do great work and you seem to own all required tools (belt sander) included!!!! Thanks for sharing and teaching.
Really cool daily! Love the calipers, wheels, tires, rims and center caps! My OCD noticed that the center caps off. One wheel is correct and the other three are off. I believe its the passenger rear is good...
Man I wish I had your mechanics skill and infrastructure. If at any time my cam adjusters start to rattle or my cam lobes are worn I am f**ked 🤪 love what you made out of your car and how you‘ve documented all of it! Also, probs for going with silver wheels, they look so damn good 💪
Chris, the e63 AMG looks great where I agree no need to add anything else! I've done similar things to my '06 SLK55 AMG and have added another tune that eliminated the Park rev limiter!!! Vrooom... Steve
Bro! It’s gorgeous! 😍🥰 I have a black on charcoal W211 E55 AMG with a pulley and some cooling mods that I daily’d until I picked up a W210 E430 so I could finish the mods on the AMG! I have long tube headers and a looped fuel rail sitting in the corner just waiting for some new injectors and 82mm TB to arrive. I’ve already done all of the maintenance and replaced wear items such as thrust arms, motor and trans mounts, flex discs and I replaced the AirMatic with BC Racing adjustable C/O and with a new set of Conti Extreme 2’s it does not feel like a 20 year old car! I have always had an itch for an E63 and THAT is exactly what I would have built for myself. I just discovered your channel (sub’d) and it appears you have 3 more of my dream cars in your garage. I think we may have been separated at birth… 😂
@@ChrisSullivan69 I just found your channel a few days ago and I have plenty to catch up on! You have a great collection and your content and camera/editing work is top notch. I see great things for your channel!
Great episode, as always 🙏 The only thing I would try to change would be another headunit, to use (in my case) Apple CarPlay. But that would be the only thing I would change if I had such a great looking W212 E63 with the M156 in it 😍 With best regards from Germany 🇩🇪, Philipp 👋
Im so jealous you get to take stills and exhaust clips on a road without cars. It's impossible to do that in cali...every road in this state is full of traffic. Awesome builds!
Couple things I noticed, but maybe just quick cuts from your video, and I'm sure you know this. 1. Never use the same wash mit to clean your wheels as you do your paint. Rail dust will kill the paint. 2. Also for ease of install, once you take a wheel off, wire wheel the hubs and apply a bit of anti sieze to the hub. The wheel should come off a lot easier next time.
Awesome car, Chris. I almost bought a mid 2000s AMG (E55 or E63/C63) this past winter. Off topic - I'd love to see you build an early 2000's Lexus IS300, or an early 2000's 350Z/G35, and build the heck out of that. Please consider building any old school (650 hp to 800 hp) JDM with a big turbo.
@@amgtrnd2245 - I almost didn't post my comment above because nobody who runs a TH-cam channel wants to be told what to do. But I really respect Chris's work and taste in cars, so I thought I'd give my $0.02 in what type of build I'd personally like to see. Regardless, Chris always finds great cars to build, and what he does with them (mods, upgrades, repairs, etc.) is always top shelf, so I'm happy to continue to see all of his amazing builds, and whatever he has in the pipeline.
The amount of attention to detail and care he puts into his work is amazing. Love the content keep working bruh
Could not agree more! Love this channel!❣️
i agree, i admire it so much honestly. Wanna get to this point of being able to work on my own car to this extent.
Absolutely love these videos! Not filled with junk, quality work, you show a good amount of the work also not just finished products. This channel is amazing. I will continue to like every video you put out and support 👍🏻 best quality channel I’ve found on TH-cam !
the facelift taillights would look absolutely insane on this

Been sharing your channel with all of my car buddies, by far my favorite automotive channel. Some how underrated. Keep doing what you're doing Chris!
These cars aged so well
awesome video as always! Those older AMGs sound so good and now yours has the look to match with those red calipers - very well done
Absolutely marvelous. Chris i know your working hard to fix this thing. Please please don't disappoint 😢
Older video but it’s nice to see 100k plus views. Chris is finally getting the love he deserves!! Keep up the great work Chris!
I literally went back and watched all the E63 videos please make more vids on this car like dyno test and other fun things. This thing a beauty
21:55 thank you for this. Such a beast of a car, sounds and looks amazing!

Brembo gold was a close 2nd choice. Decided to go tried and true red though

That's what I'm talking about. Drive it like it supposed to be driven! It sounds amazing! 🇺🇸
Drive it like you stole it ! Always enjoy your videos. Great attention to detail.
That things clean as a hounds tooth. And for its age, how clean it is makes it insane. Very nice sir.
Love the content Chris! Keep it coming man.
In all my years wrenching, I’ve never thought to put the jack stands on the jack instead of making two trips
Me either. Just kind of came to me in the moment lol
Its safe to say that washing your car thoroughly will add 20 hp and make it sound better! Love the content!
I second this
awesome work, pure detailing here :D
I gave this a thumbs up purely for the sound coming from that car. That thing is sweet!
Shame that streetspeed and itsjusta6 have hundreds of thousands of followers and you don’t. You’re going to blow up. Quality work.
I did the same trick with my C8 center caps over to a set of Vossen's over the winter. I hit them with a heat gun and to logo part separated from the clip and used VHB tape like you. Have driven them maybe 500 miles since then and still one there nice and secure
Good to hear!
Nice video. Nice job with the brake calipers not to mention all of the previous work you have done to the E63.
Love the new 80s vibe track added to the rotation!
Synth wave FTW
So your E63 Series has motivated me to get my 2007 E63 back in shape. 220Kmi, all me. Started getting the dreaded valve tappet sound caused by the cam slapping the lifter. Even set off the knock sensor to give me a check engine light. Can't pass inspection.
So, my list:
Replace Tappets
Replace Cams ($3K - ouch)
Replace the Lock plates (likely get the stage II like it seems you did)
Replace air suspension pump
Replace steering fluid
Replace transmission pan (Weistec $700, but now I can change my own transmission fluid)
I'll skip the cosmetic items.
If there is any way to add tightening patterns and torque specs from the time you replaced the lifters, would appreciate it!. You have about 50% in the video.
Out of all the cars that you have the AMG is my favorite. And a big thumbs up 👍 on the beer choice. 🍻Got to have the Lite. 🍻
most underrated automotive youtuber, love the content!
Like the red calipers Sully! Looking sharp!
Those center caps really change the look of the car.good job❤
That car sounds beautiful. Simply music to my ears 👌🫡
Steering wheel is looking sharp !!!
This is my favorite AMG. Nice video man.
Good work dude, I’m going to the oil field in 2 weeks, hopefully I’ll have one by the end of the year

The absolute need for an AMG just went up a notch.

It’s intimidating lol love it for sure, can’t wait to see more of this beaut

What a car, fantastic looks and sound , the summer rims came out amazing, black with silver wheels, old school 😉top job
Man, I'm surprised at the quality of the finish using spray paint on the calipers! Lays down really nice, almost like powder coat. Car sounds incredible btw

Great to see you getting that beast to it's full potential!
that wheel setup is bbeautiful
Great Idea for the center cap; You always find a great solution To fixing a problem
That thang is mean!! Luxury and sporty AF
AMG LOOKS DOPE BRO... LOVE WHAT YOU DONE TO IT....
I love all your videos. This is the cleanest E63 by far the best quality work you put into this fast 4 door.
Us Texans are thinking... "what winter tires/wheels?!?". 😄
Nice work as always. The E63 is an amazing EDD.
Chris! If you hold the shift lever to the right on + it will auto jump to the drive again when in Drive-manual mode
Damn good tip. Never knew that
@@ChrisSullivan69 yeah its easier than shifting up with the paddles. Just holding the upshift on the gearlever engages drive instant
That car ages really well
Really cool daily! Love the calipers, wheels, tires, rims and center caps! My OCD noticed that the center caps off. One wheel is correct and the other three are off. I believe its the passenger rear is good...
That Mercedes kicks ass, sounds Awesome Dude.
Looking great my brother, really surprised you didn't go with your favorite blue on calibers.
Chris is a DIY Warrior
Man I wish I had your mechanics skill and infrastructure. If at any time my cam adjusters start to rattle or my cam lobes are worn I am f**ked 🤪

Stellar job painting those brakes
👌
Great episode, as always 🙏
The only thing I would try to change would be another headunit, to use (in my case) Apple CarPlay.
But that would be the only thing I would change if I had such a great looking W212 E63 with the M156 in it 😍
With best regards from Germany 🇩🇪, Philipp 👋
The W212 is ABSOLUTELY my favorite E-Class! I drive a 2014 E63 and fell in LOVE! I'm still looking for the perfect E550! 🥴
That AMG is a Beast!!
Absolutely love these cars just a thug in a suit and outside a Lamborghini one of the best sounding engines full stop. Love the videos
Thug in a suit i love it lol.
I really love the silver on the center caps
Calipers turned out beautiful!
Bro he deserves so much more subscribers
Im so jealous you get to take stills and exhaust clips on a road without cars. It's impossible to do that in cali...every road in this state is full of traffic. Awesome builds!
YOUR MERCEDES HAS SOME POWER & LOOKS GREAT ! KEEP UP THE GREAT VIDEOS CHRIS !! JESSE VIA LAS VEGAS
Chris's attention to detail is 2nd to none😳
Couple things I noticed, but maybe just quick cuts from your video, and I'm sure you know this. 1. Never use the same wash mit to clean your wheels as you do your paint. Rail dust will kill the paint. 2. Also for ease of install, once you take a wheel off, wire wheel the hubs and apply a bit of anti sieze to the hub. The wheel should come off a lot easier next time.
Good points. But I never use the same mitt for wheels and paint. Two different mitts, two different buckets. Good advice though!
Miller Lite! Another great video shows how to have patience
Your part of New Hampshire looks an awful lot like my part of Illinois. Very sweet car, reminds me of my M5.
Did I see borders on those window tints? You need to sit your tint guy down for a conversation. With that said, the car is just awesome.
Awsome job, I love settled sports sedans.
Love this car! Always enjoy seeing it on the channel.
Great work as usual!
Bring back the chrome trim with those wheels it'll look sick
I love the videos! What detailing products do you use? I love that showroom quality that you produce!
Looks fantastic
Thanks!

@@jonnnybfly I definitely like when people give their opinions on my Chan I’m super indecisive.
my C63 is on the lift waiting for new cams. This video made me happy but also very sad haha. cant wait to rip it again
Calipers came out nice. I sprayed clear over mine to protect the decals.
will have to save this for later, like some good desert!
That 2nd launch was rowdy sounded soo nasty too!! ❤lol
Looks sick sounds sick! I’m in the hunt for a w211 or w212 amg wagon. Keep the content coming 👍
Just awesome Chris, looking sweet great touch details.
Chris I love your content.. I saw you replaced a lot of mechanical parts, I came a cross this today. Hopefully it helps. Be of luck 🍀
brakes came out looking awesome!!
Terminator Z06 and E63 sheeesh good shit bruh
Keep up the good work Chris!
👍🏼. You have good taste. Subscribed. Black tinted German sedan in my driveway with big brake kit as well. Tuned. Og daily
You need one of those large Amazon detail mats they’re awesome!!
Dude, we need a restore video series on that mini-bike.😍👍
Most underrated TH-camr that I've seen. Now that I said that can you bang out my 2005 CTS-v for me? No lift and no garage .... Please
my favorite channel bro!
love your content, from france.
Bonjour
Looks killer 🤜🏻🤛🏻🤘🏻
You have great taste theses rims look amazing!
