One of the most emblematic vehicles in Mercedes-Benz range is undoubtedly the G-Wagon. The model was introduced back in 1979 and since than it made an uncompromised mark in the automotive industry.
Many tuners have taken the challenge to make this machine even more stunning. The tuners at SR Auto Group have also made a contribution to the world of modified G-Wagons with their take on the AMG G63.
At first, they have equipped it with a complete Brabus Widestar Kit, which includes Fender Fla

Well, here's something different. VANSPORTS – which are, apparently, a derivative of Hartmann Tuning – have turned a normal Mercedes-Benz Citan into a hotshot delivery van. It's a bit like a senior citizen wearing trainers and a side-ways baseball cap.
So, most of the modifications are courtesy to this “MetroStream design programme”. It consists of a redesigned front grille, new front bumper with sporty vents on it on it and a splitter, a rear diffuser, and side skirts even. Behind the curtai

It's not easy making a break in the aftermarket niche. It takes time and determination to build a good image. Only then will the majority of people will feel secure in handing in the keys to their prised stock-mobiles.
All that being said, we would like to wish good luck to the young, up-and-coming tuner house from Germany, Loewenstein Manufaktur. Here's their latest creation which started off a as Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG.
“457 hp”, they must have said, “not nearly good enough.”
Thus, we

Here it is in the flesh: the world's most powerful “series-produced four-cylinder engine”. It's the Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG and it's fast. Like, 4.8-seconds-to-sixty-miles-an-hour kind of fast.
So, despite the tiny engine (2.0-liters), the GLA – AKA, the latest of the “Compact-SUVs” – offers 360 hp and 450 Nm of torque. How have they done that? Well, a twin-scroll turbocharger with a maximum charge pressure of 1.8 bar, and an air-to-water intercooler might be partly to blame. AMG engineers h

Seen enough of JMS's minimalistic approach to aftermarket customization? Well, too bad. Here's a Mercedes-Benz W176 – or, in other words, the latest A-Class – with a slight visual upgrade.
JMS are calling it a kit but we are not so sure about that. It's just one piece really. A front lip spoiler with an “integrated central diffuser”. You can bolt and glue that thing on the stock bumper A-Class for just 289 Euros ($394). Oh, and it doesn't fit the AMG variants.
Will you gain something in te

The tuning specialists at D2Autosport have recently prepared a D2Edition program for 2014 Mercedes Benz CLA250. They have optimized the exterior credentials of the car and it now looks more aggressive and powerful than ever.
In the beginning, the refinement started with the breaking down of the car. Then they have added the elements they had in mind in this project. For the front, the tuners used piano black color lower bumper insert, grill, grill surround, and headlight surround.

2015 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG has been rendered by Khalil B. and published online. The performance saloon is expected to be unveiled sometime in the end of next year.
Earlier this month, Mercedes-Benz has announced the AMG Line for the new C-Class (W205), so we can expect some of these elements in the C63 AMG. However, the author has envisioned a more aggressive look featuring a lowered sports suspension, a quad exhaust system, more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger air vents and typ

So, the guys from the German-based Famous Parts company took a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster and touched it up a bit. And trust us on this, a very tiny bit. It's strange actually, since they clearly lament the past glory of the SLR which is now being upstaged by cars such as the LaFerrari and the McLaren P1.
Anyway, what Famous Parts did was to put... ugh... new wheels on the open tot. Four forged ADV.1s were used measuring at 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the back. Their desig
