A joint project between Piecha Design and JMS results in this Mercedes-Benz E-Class. It's called the “E-Class GT-R” and it's base is the pre-facelift W212 models.
What we have at hand here is a kit that comprises of a front piece with very design-specific “flicks” which accentuate the LED daytime running lights. Then there are the side skirts which are even compatible with the E63 AMG model. Last but not least: a Piecha rear port diffuser that

For around $9.434 you can have the complexly named Prior Design Black Edition V2 widebody aerodynamic kit on a Mercedes S-Class (the old W221 Merc). It's black (duh), road-sweapingly low, and kind of aggressive. Just look at the space – or rather the lack of it - between the tires and the wheel arches (that space, by the way, is called the dead cat hole). To be honest, though, the freakishly big wheels are not mentioned in the brochure so that mi

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 compl

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

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

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 have fiddled with a 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
