MEC Design, know for unusually ostentatious styling – anyone remember the 2FACE Bodykit for the CL-Class – is at it again. This time MEC Design tuned the old Mercedes SL (Type R230). Their latest design for the Mercedes SL is very in your face and daring, definitely pushing the envelope. Perhaps MEC wanted to sent the no longer produced R230 off in style, and they did just that.
The kit comes with a multitude of options and you can pick and choose what details you’d like installed according to your taste. You of course get the standard bumpers and wide wheel arches, but you get to choose the front spoiler; big lips or small, carbon finish or not. It’s totally up to you.
There are also new side openings, which again you can have in carbon or not. Around at the back, you get MEC’s diffuser, optionally in carbon, with MEC exhaust’s tailpipes. They also offer a diffuser that matches AMG’s stock tailpipes. Another feature here is lateral fins right and left. A rear spoiler is also available, and yes, it can be had in exposed carbon fiber.
MEC will only create 15 units of this kit, which additionally offers a unique wheel/tire combination for, 11×20 with 285/25 ZR 20 + 14×21 with 375/20 ZR 20.
