Why Zhang Wei decided to customize his Mercedes-AMG G 63
Why Zhang Wei decided to customize his Mercedes-AMG G 63
My name is Zhang Wei, I am from Shanghai. This Mercedes-AMG G 63 was never meant to be a personal car or daily transportation. From the very beginning, it was conceived as a project — a vehicle designed to attract attention instantly, stay in memory, and create an emotional response at first glance.
There was a clear reason for this approach: preparation for Auto Shanghai 2024. In such a context, the mindset changes completely. It is not about meeting expectations, but about shaping them. The car had to look bold, confident, and modern, while remaining a recognizable G-Class with a strong character.

Why I chose LARTE Design
Why I chose LARTE Design
I was already familiar with LARTE Design dealers in Shanghai. This was a partner project, and from the start we worked as a single team. From an ownership perspective, LARTE Design stood out as a brand capable of executing a full-scale Mercedes-AMG G 63 body kit project at an international level. Their experience with exhibition builds and attention to concept integrity made the choice obvious.
We immediately decided to move toward an unconventional color solution. That is how the gradient wrap was born: clean white at the front, gradually transitioning into a cool blue at the rear. This transition emphasizes movement and direction. On the stand, the car literally pulled people in.

A complete concept, not individual parts

The carbon body kit from LARTE Design became the core of the entire look. It enhanced the shape of the G 63, added structure and visual clarity, while remaining in harmony with the color concept. The hood and rear section stand out especially — this is where carbon creates the right balance between aggression and exhibition presence.
We also paid special attention to the interior. Together with LARTE dealers in Shanghai, the cabin was fully reworked: materials, details, and signature LARTE branding. It was essential that the interior continued the same story as the exterior. Not just a show car, but a cohesive, finished project.

Precision fit on a G-Class

After the carbon body kit installation, the focus was on precision and visual balance rather than daily practicality. Once the carbon kit was installed, every element aligned with the overall concept. Looking back, the installation experience proved that even a show-oriented build benefits from engineering accuracy and real-world fitment quality, especially for public exhibition use.

Presence over motion: experience a fully customized Mercedes-AMG G 63
Presence over motion: experience a fully customized Mercedes-AMG G 63
Experiencing a customized Mercedes-AMG G 63 is not about motion, but about gravity. In real-world conditions, the vehicle feels deliberate and immovable, as if it sets the pace rather than reacts to it. From a practical standpoint, the experience is defined by distance — how the car separates itself from its surroundings. Living with a modified Mercedes in this form reinforces the idea of authority without display, presence without explanation.

Nearly a year behind the wheel
Nearly a year behind the wheel
Year after installing the carbon body kit, the Mercedes-AMG G 63 carbon body kit continues to function as part of a larger concept, not a standalone statement. The carbon kit remains visually stable and consistent in real-world use, particularly in public and professional settings. Looking back, this configuration aged as a symbol, not as a trend — retaining meaning rather than novelty.

At Auto Shanghai 2024, this G 63 became one of the most talked-about vehicles. People stopped, took photos, asked questions. The car performed exactly as intended — as a visual and emotional statement.
For me, this project confirmed that the right team and a shared vision can create more than just a car. They can create an impression. And that is what truly stays in memory.
