Body Kit - Styling

Has anyone ever styled an SLK? I am looking to have the Rieger Body placed on mine but just wondered if anyone had any reasons why i should or should not do it?

Many Thanks

I want to but have not yet.

I personlly like the brabus kit. And it come painted and ready. From what I understand the Reiger Kit is not painted yet. And has to be fitted to you car.
Also I would check out the expression kit I like that one too but it does not come painted either. You can see it on the proformace product website.

The kit makes the Benz look too "Honda-ized".

SLK Rieger Body Kit + Spoiler

Recently added a Rieger Body Kit to my SLK. Thought you might all like to see what it turned out like in the Sunny old U.K

Thumbs up

Very nice. The whole car has been transformed. Looks like an exotic. My question is: is that a Rieger spoiler?

Every spoiler I've seen so far I haven't liked, but yours looks great! Also, yours doesn't look riced . I think the comment about "honda-ized" about the silver one, was because somehow the eyelids pushed it over the top.

Kit was fitted by www.Autovogue.com and they also supplied the mesh. They have a good website so might be able to advise if you give them a call.

Spoiler is Rieger i believe, again purchased and fitted at the same time.

***THE CAR IS UP FOR SALE ON AUTOTRADER AS OF TODAY***

Please pass the work to any people who might be interested. It might have the kit but it has been treated nicely
