Car Tuning
The car wrapping specialists at CUT48 have given the Mercedes SLR McLaren a whole new look with a bright blue foil wrap. While this sports car remains very expensive and highly sought after by collectors due to the brand and history, pricing from the tuners remains affordable. For this project the blue and black gloss car wrap was stretched on for €4,350 or $5,800.
A slew of tuning companies showed up to resurrect this Mercedes SLR McLaren and turn it into one of the world’s fastest. The package uses body parts from Mansory, with tuners RENNtech, Exotics Boutique, Platinum Motorsport, and MACarbon bringing it all together. The kit on the exterior of the SLR is called the Renovatio from Mansory, and the supercharger comes courtesy of RENNtech. The transmission was also upgraded by RENNtech to handle all the extra power.
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.
ASMA Design is a car tuner from Germany that designs unique body kits for Mercedes and they recently unveiled their latest project based on a Mercedes SLR McLaren. They called their custom car “Perfectus” and it was originally developed for the Royal Family of Abu Dhabi but it will soon be available for any SLR owner. The car has a slightly different look with a new front grille and front bumper, new side sills, extended rear fenders, a new rear bumper with rear diffuser and a small boot lip spoiler. The ASMA Mercedes SLR McLaren Perfectus is equipped with a 5.5L supercharged engine which delivers 700HP and has a maximum torque of 855 Nm.
About 15 years ago, McLaren F1 was declared the best car in the world and a lot of people believed that you can’t do anything better than that. But the years have passed, the “silver arrows” – as McLaren are called in Formula 1 – managed to win a couple of world titles with Mercedes and they have proven that they’re really good at creating sport cars and racing. A couple of years ago, they’ve decided to take a new step and create a great sport car again and this is how the Mercedes SLR McLaren was created. The car is fabulous with a supreme design and performances that make you tremble when you’re driving one. The price might be really expensive for most of us, but those the feelings you’ll have when you’re driving a Mercedes SLR are priceless. Read More →
