At the exterior level, a couple modifications consist of a new racing chassis and 20-inch alloy wheels from OZ measuring 20×8.5 in the front, and 20×10 in the rear.

GeigerCars increased the power to an incredible 810 hp from the 3.3-liter compressor, which is able to develop 1.6 bar of pressure through the 5.4-liter V8 powerplant.

Carlsson C25
The German tuning firm Carlsson announced earlier this month of their latest sports car project dubbed the C25. This came prior to the Geneva Motor Show, where we all got to see the Carlsson C25 masterpiece. From the front view of the car, you can describe it as dynamic and aggressive, with trapezoid shapes for the large air inlets. Typical Carlsson styling if you ask me, but if you look at it from the side, it confirms the fact that we are looking at classic GT-proportions, with a front centered engine. The rear view is just as impressive, and even holds a highly visible aerodynamic functionality.
CFC Hummer H2
CFC, which stands for Car Film Components, is a German based tuner who decided to pimp out this Hummer H2 with several chrome accessories. They claim this build to be pretty sexy, but honestly I could only see popular rappers such as Lil Wayne or Drake driving a car like this. Their tuning firm decided to wrap the Hummer H2 SUV in chrome vinyl, and black out the windows with tint before adding the CFC stickers on the side. The most attracting feature on the vehicle are definitely the huge 28-inch light alloy chrome wheels from TunerShop, which come wrapped in 325/35 R28 tires from Kumho. Moving to the interior however, CFC went over the top on this Hummer H2.
