looks like a stock SLK320 that has been rebadged to me... the SLK32 come standard with drilled rotors, and different wheels..
I personally do not care for the "rice burner wing"...

'02 SLK32 AMG
In all honestly, here's what I think:
BAD
1. AMG Badge. Normally, I don't mind when people put an AMG badge on their car. However, they usually have some other AMG parts (body kit or wheels or wing or exhaust or springs etc.) on their car. In this case, I see no other AMG parts and no reason for the AMG badge.
2. SLK32 badge. It's not an SLK32, so don't badge it as such. The people who know what an SLK32 AMG is will not be fooled. Everybody else will have no appreciation for it anyway.
3. The rear bumper apron looks bad because it's bent to allow space for the dual exhaust tips.
GOOD
1. The exhaust itself looks good. Dual chrome tips are a nice touch.
NEUTRAL
1. Red calipers. Normally, bright-colored calipers draw you to look closer and see that they're something special, like Brembo, AMG, etc. I don't see the point in painting stock calipers, but there's nothing wrong with it.
2. The wing. Looks OK. Is it genuine Lorinser or a copy?
