Nissan GT-R R35 is probably the Nissan that everyone tries to modify. The car looks really well as a stock car but with serious improvements it’s a reputable racing car. The guys from Zele have created a special tuning kit that is made from a lot of carbon fiber accessories. The exterior body kit is made from the front bumper, side skirts, rear spoiler, a modified front grill and Rays rims. I’m not really impressed with the car’s color but i’m sure you could order any paint you want. They’ve also worked at the car’s performances and the car is faster now with an upgrade at the engine cooling unit. They car’s speed limit was also eliminated and it could reach incredible speeds now. Zele also installed new exhaust system made from titanium and this car will have a warranty of 1 year. Clients could choose from wet or dry carbon elements and most elements cost around $1,000.

Lorinser ML Black & White
We have all seen black & white movies and even though we felt that there’s a need of color there, the black & white combination always looks good. The latest modified car from Lorinser has this lovely combination and it’s called Sportservice ML Black & White. They modified a Mercedes-Benz ML 320 CDI and tried to turn it into a more agressive and sportier car. Those 22″ black rims look really great on the car and that black grill and black windows add a great contrast and a misterious look to this car. The new body kit has aerodynamic elements like: front and rear bumper, side skirts and new exhaust. I’m pretty sure that when you’re driving this car your self confidence will be really high. The white color makes this car look really peaceful but this car is a speed demon because the guys from Lorinser modified the car’s engine too.
