The bigger wheels and drop really fill the SLK out. Looks so agressive. Only thing I still dont like is 4 brabus fog lights, but still it looks crazy good. Is the carlsson one p-shopped?

Just proves how difficult it is to improve on the improved looks of the R171. I would take the AMG appearance/sport package on the SLK350 over what Carrlson and Brabus are offering.

Don't let the photoshop fool you. A black MB in person looks better than a silver car anyday. There's nothing like a "just washed" black car.

I'm not digging either of them, the Carlsson rims look kinda awkward on a silver car.

I want to see what RENNtech lips are made for the front.

I dunno, these pics make the SLK look too cutesy to be aggressive. I really hope this new SLK doesn't become the chick car that its predecessor was.
