Without a doubt, sex sells and is one of the reasons many enthusiasts out there spend so much time and money tuning their cars. The guys from Inden Design have used this method to promote a new package for the sleek Mercedes SLS AMG with German model Katja Runiello. For the true car fans, the tuning kit is modest in the performance department with a minor boost for the 6.3-liter V8 powerplant. After the ECU optimization, the Mercedes sports car now puts down 614 horses, a decent jump from the factory 563 horsepower.

INDEN-Design Mercedes-Benz SL 500
The lastest work from the well known Mercedes-Benz and Ferrari tuners at INDEN-Design shows a new tuning kit for the Mercedes SL 500. Receiving a completely new body kit from the Mercedes SL 65 AMG, the SL 500 has a more sporty appearance. The car was hooked up with large custom chrome wheels measuring 20×10.5 in the front, and 20×11.75 in the rear wrapped in 255/30/20 and 305/25/20 high performance Pirelli tires. The stance of the car was important to INDEN-Design, so they installed a ABC-sport suspension kit that can lower the vehicle up to 50 mm. The new SL 65 AMG body kit on the Mercedes SL 500 really transforms the car with the new front spoiler, rear bumper, carbon fiber diffuser, side skirts, rear spoiler, and aftermarket rear lights.
Inden Design Ferrari F430 Spider
German tuning company Inden Design has taken the Ferrari F430 Spider under their wing, enhancing both looks and performance. To improve the aerodynamics, Inden Design installed a modified front spoiler to redirect airflow, keeping the car stuck to the pavement. The customized side vents, both lower and upper contribute to better aerodynamics while adding to the sports car look. In the rear of the Ferrari F430 Spider is a carbon fiber diffuser and rear valence to increase the balance and stability of the vehicle. Larger lightweight rims measuring 20×8.5 in the front, and 20×12 in the rear were added. High performance tires were installed on the wheels, and they measure 235/30 R20 in the front, and a massive 325/25 R20 in the rear. These additions, not mentioning the performance upgrades yet, aid in allowing this Ferrari F430 to reach a top speed of 300 km/h.
Inden Design Mercedes SL65 AMG
The White Angel is Inden Design‘s latest upgrade package for the Mercedes SL65 AMG. The car is based on the 2005 SL65 AMG model and it has been redesigned to look just like the new 2008 SL model. Inden Design installed new front and rear aprons, new headlights, a new bonnet and a carbon rear diffuser which gives this vehicle a race car look and feeling. The exterior look was also improved by installing a new exhaust system made from stainless steel and eye catching 19″ rims. Under the hood, the Inden Design Mercedes SL65 AMG has an improved turbo charger, a new intercooler which is more powerful than the one from the stock car and an extra gear oil cooler. The car tuners also re programmed the car’s engine cooling unit and after all these performance modifications their SL65 AMG could deliver 680 HP.
