Forza game enthusiasts and Mercedes-Benz aficionados know the thrill of driving the C63 AMG Black Series in the virtual world. However, some players have noticed a visual discrepancy in the game’s rendering of this iconic car. Specifically, the chrome trim around the windows, a signature design element, is conspicuously missing in the standard in-game model. This detail, while seemingly minor, significantly impacts the overall authenticity and visual appeal of the digital C63 Black Series.

One dedicated player, frustrated by this oversight, took matters into their own hands to rectify this visual flaw. By leveraging the game’s customization tools, they embarked on a mission to restore the missing chrome trim to its rightful place on the digital C63 Black Series. The solution involved a meticulous process of applying custom paint and decals to recreate the intended look of the vehicle.
The correction process began with painting the car in a chrome base coat. This provided the foundation for the reflective trim. Subsequently, colored decals were strategically applied, carefully maneuvering around the window areas to preserve the spaces intended for the chrome accents. This step demanded precision and patience, as accurately recreating the trim required a trial-and-error approach to ensure perfect alignment and coverage. Finally, small black masking details were added around the windows to further refine the appearance and complete the chrome trim restoration.

The results of this dedicated effort are visually striking. The corrected C63 Black Series now boasts the complete and accurate chrome trim, significantly enhancing its in-game appearance and bringing it closer to its real-world counterpart. Furthermore, the player discovered nuances in the game’s paint system, noting how different metallic paint tones affect decal reflectivity. For instance, achieving a shiny decal appearance on a yellow C63 required using polished aluminum paint. For the C63 Horizon Edition, replicating the original matte black finish involved utilizing semi-gloss aluminum paint and black decals.
For Forza players seeking to enhance the realism of their C63 Black Series in the game, this custom paint solution offers a valuable fix. Players can search for the gamertag “fporto” in Forza to find and apply this corrected yellow C63 paint job to their own vehicles. This demonstrates the dedication of the Forza community to visual accuracy and offers a simple way for others to enjoy a more authentic digital representation of the Mercedes-Benz C63 Black Series.
