Thats why I said black inspired. They did alot more then just widening the fenders they also had to widen the bumpers to flow correct with the wide fenders.

For the conversion of the old SL style including Headlights and the Full Bodykit is around 14.000 Euro. PRIOR-Design offers the kit without headlights for around 9.900 Euro.

If you are interested I can put you in direct contact to the owner of the car and he can help set up the purchase for you. Just to make this clear I am in no way associated or benefit from this. I'm looking to do my own 65black conversion and I thought this was a different cheaper alternative.

wow, I couldn't look at this at work, but it looks veeeery impressive. any time I see someone making a widebody kit I assume it will look horrible, but this is the same styling and quality of look that you could find on a merc.

Looks good, but I would realy like a 'half-wide' body kit. Like an inch less or so. Still a lot of €/$/£ for a bodykit.

Don't know what really comes in the conversion. I would assume Hood Headlights Fenders all needed to convert the old round headlight style front end to the new one.

All i know its 14k euro if you got the older body-style SL and 9k euro if you have the new style.

Last year I asked my dealer what the cost was to replace the 2 headlight units because mine are a little foggy on the inside. Price of 1 unit : 1800 € + 21% tax.
I said : no, thanks..
