Wheelsandmore does it again! This time the German company hooked up a Mercedes-Benz CL 45 and proved that they are one of the best custom wheel companies in the business. But they didn’t just stop there, they took car tuning to the next level. The power from this Mercedes CL 45 is for the most sportive drivers much to less. So Wheelsandmore decided to create a tuning package for this sports coupe. With the v-max ability they were able to get performance gains up to 450 hp at 575lb-ft of torque. A special exhaust system with 100cells sport catalysts, 4-in-1 manifold and a valve controlled rear silencer with end tips combined with an ECU update is responsible for this increase in power. With their LowMaXX electronic lowering module the look of the car and the suspension setup is getting as sporty as the power upgrade and wheels.

MyCar Mercedes CS500

In the world’s oil capitol there are many luxury vehicles and the tuner MyCar is challenged a lot in order to make an eye catching ride there. Ever heard of the Mercedes CS500? We haven’t heard either but the guys from MyCar went really far to create an all new Mercedes.

FAB Design Mercedes McLaren SLR
FAB Design is a tuning company that loves to modify expensive rides and we’ve recently seen a lot of news about them. The Swiss based company tried to make their own version of the popular McLaren SLR and they made a brand new body kit and an insane spoiler for this sports car. This radical SLR was spotted at FAB Design’s headquarters and with extreme extentions and a new front bumper the car looks like an aggressive monster. The new exterior kit makes it look lower and wider than it is already but this modified SLR lost that Formula One impression and that’s not a plus for us. The new spoiler is strange and a lot of people call it a TV antenna that has nothing to do with this SLR’s cool design.
