ACG San Diego // Prior Design Aero Kit for R230

Just wanted to introduce this brand that has a body kit for SL-Class R230. Prior Design is a German company. The parts are made in Germany and they are TUV certified.

The fitment is great, the price is fair and the availability is 3-5 weeks from placing the order.

Let me know what you think.


More Info







And with the normal grill:

Why waste a perfect shaped R230 body ? Those shark fenders are Fugly and the nose and the side skirts and the rear Sorry, not my cup of coffee. Their wide-body looks way better.

Front bumper

Hi,
Does the front bumper on the car in the showroom fit directly onto a sl55 or do you need to get the fenders as well,i think the front bumper looks awsome,not keen on the fenders.
Looked on the main site,the company make some very nice body kits for various models.
If you have any more photos of the front bumper in diffrent colours,please post

happy motoring bc brit

The bumpers are a direct fit. The fenders are not required. I also like the front and rear bumpers of this kit the most.

I don't care for it either, but I'm conservative and love the lines of the stock R230.
