Last week we saw the German Special Customs new performance and styling package for the Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG 740hp (750PS) and 1,150Nm (848 lb-ft).  This week, we have the latest offering from Canadian tuner, SR Auto Group, titled the Stratos.

The Stratos is based on an older generation Mercedes-Benz CLS that starts its transformation by dropping the original black exterior by two shades resulting in a smoldering grey finish. A set of bespoke LED DRL systems were mounted in the lower section of the bumper resembling a feature from its bigger brother; the 2012 CLS63 AMG. The center grille and surrounding emblems were then painted gloss black to match the roof and mirrors. And, last but not least, a carbon fiber front aero lip completes the exterior overhaul.

Moving on to SR Auto Groups speciality, the wheels. Consistency was very important in this build, with the exterior featuring such sharp and clean attributes, the wheels had to follow suit. SR Auto Group selected a set of PUR 4OUR monoblocks in a high gloss black finish, tying in perfectly with the gloss black exterior accents, which created a cohesive bond between the entire car.
