SL65 Black Series Bodykit for SL55

Hi - Anybody know where I can get hold of a SL65 black series bodykit for a SL55? I am quite tempted to change my existing bumpers etc to the new facelift style but would really prefer to go down the black series route to achieve the best look.

Thanks

There's a co. selling the upgrade you seek for a simple $27,000.00 in parts alone, NOT including paint or install lol!

Hey, the link to the company is, http://www.goeckel.de/mercedes_benz_...iftBlackSeries

It's a German company so their website is in german.

I'm trying to find another company who'll produce a complete conversion kit for much cheaper than $30k.

That price is Euros. That means $43K USD. You have to really love your car to do that, and plan on keeping it for a long, long time!

Are those functional or aesthetics? Where is this from?

Looking at it, I assume it's a Goeckel conversion...

I think I've seen that car on their website.

There seems to be some confusion here, he said SL65 Black not SLR.
I posted something similar recently, it was a company called Project X seen
in Pistonheads making a body kit for SL to make it Black edition.

I remember seeing a post from someone, from Japan I think, that made the parts off of reinforced fiberglass/plastic for a fraction of the price but it was for the 09' SL63 conversion. Dont know if he has the BS parts

ah man that makes this 3 times as poser hilarious.

Why would anyone take a sl500, spend $40K ish to put a Black Series body kit on, and then not only rebadge, but rebadge wrongly.

And Goeckel does not ship outside of Germany. I have been in touch with them and they will allow you to arrange your own international shipping (they agreed to this reluctantly and after many, many email pleas!). They have the most extensive custom inventory for SL upgrades in the world...just surfing their site takes hours to take it all in (be sure to have a google translation option as it is in German)!
