ACG San Diego // Prior Design R230 WIDEBODY! pre/post facelift conversion

Prior Design is a German company. All the pieces are made in Germany and they are TUV certified. That means the quality is absolutely top notch.

This particular kit will work on a 2009 + SL R230 as a simple bolt-on.

It will also work on a pre-facelift R230 but you will need:
OEM Hood
OEM Grill
OEM Headlights
OEM Headlight Treys

The MSRP is $20,000. Call us with any questions: 877-422-4736

Enjoy:

to be honest i like the bs conversion better (ONLY ON SL65)
this definitely looks good but mario offers everything for 40k

here one would need to buy all the things that were mentioned in the post...and the lights are def not gonna be cheap + installation + paint + rims

i just dont see the reason to go for this over the bs which in my opinion looks amazing

Here are the parts needed to complete the facelift conversion of the SL if you have a pre 2009 model. The kit now includes a hood, that is simmilar to the OEM but is a little more aggressive. I will get you images of this soon.


Original AMG front grill (with or without Disctronic)
facelift headlights
Xenon balasts
front aluminium carrier/beam
headlight cleaning injectors

If requested also:
complete facelift mirrors
AMG facelift brake lights
AMG facelift break lights
AMG Exhaust or PRIOR-Design Exhaust




At the end of the day this should run you much less then $40k. I will give you guys some more #s on how much is to install the kit including the price of all the pieces you need.

I don't mean to hate, but are there 2 flaps that are missing from the top angle picture on the rear deck? I like the look of the front, but I prefer the sl65 bs rear
