Lorinser Lorinser to Unveil Mercedes SL Facelift Based Model at Automechanika

[PanterroR]

Instead of revealing its newest tuning proposition based on the recently facelifted Mercedes-Benz SL at next month’s Paris Auto Show Lorinser has decided to perform the world debut of its beefed up SL at the 2008 Automechanika Show in Frankfurt that runs from the September 16 to 21. The Automechanica show is an international exhibition for automobile parts, repair shop, service station and garage equipment. Lorisner hasn’t given out any details whatsoever on its interpretation of the Mercedes roadster but expect to see the usual mechanical and aesthetic upgrades.

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is without doubt one of the most handsome cars on the market but with a few subtle mods the svelte roadster can be made much more appealing. The latest styling kit from German tuner Lorinser proves this proposition, with little more than a complete bodykit for the facelifted SL range and a custom wheel and tire package.

New pieces include an aggressive front bumper with three oversized intakes, custom vents located behinds the wheel arches, a set of side sills and new rear bumper with an integrated diffuser. Also up back are a custom quad-exhaust system and a small bootlid spoiler. The final addition is Lorinser’s trademark RS 9 forged alloy wheels.

All additions are available in high-quality carbon, including the unique front apron designed to reduce lift on the front axle and allow for improved cooling of the engine.

Inside, Lorinser offers an F1-style steering wheel with carbon gearshift paddles, additional instruments and extra carbon trim.

When I scrolled down I thought the front fenders were disgusting.............until I saw what the diffuser looks like.

That is awful, the diffuser looks like a sad face but then again you would have one with a diffuser like that

Petitions fans, why don't you start one to ban some tuners from runing cars' looks?
