Maybe some of you will be disappointed, but there are no distinctive changes on the exterior. Yes, some changes were made, but nothing big. The bodykit is called VenomAero and includes some plastics of the facelift.

And the front part includes the modified elongated and skewed front bumper to improve air flow and aerodynamics. It’s not very visible change at first sight, but it’s effective. The lower part was lifted to create a small, but functionally diffuser to regulate air flow under the car.

Also the already massive side of the car was enhanced with extended side sills and side diffusers, openings for hot air off take from the front brakes.

The rear part passed only one change, but the change is extraordinary. It’s a sporting wing VenomAero Daytona that isn’t small?. It’s the perfect sporting spoiler that matches the car and i think it can’t be better. Also this makes that required double sporting character.

The safety is provided with a special five-point safety belts system.

The center of everything is a 8.2 liter V10 power plant producing 506 hp. Remember the number 506.

A whole modification is called Venom 1000 Twin Turbo Engine and the main goal was to change compress ratio to final 9:0:1, volume extension to 8.6 liter, two Garrett turbochargers and new bigger engine cooler.

Chromed pipes and leads, engine cover plus many other nick-nacks in combination with furious black cylinders enhance the overall sporting spirit.

The engine changes required also safety improvements including extreme sporting differential upgrade, more powerful and bigger Brembo brake discs and K&W lowered suspension with 2-way adjustable stainless steel coil over shocks.

Hennessey Venom 1000 Twin Turbo Dodge Viper SRT
If it’s not enough, eye-catching two-piece 5-poked alloys with a black center and chromed rim called Hennessey Venom 7R. Their size is 19x10 in the front and 20x13 in the rear. High speeds require high-quality and steady tires. In this case the car is booted in low-tires Michelin Pilot Sport 2 (275/30YR-19 front and 335/30YR-20 rear).

And they did a great job! The maximum output is now 1000 hp (735kW) at 5000 rpm and the torque is monumental 1490 Nm at 3800 rpm yet. Our favorite 0-100 km/h run takes only 2.9 seconds!

And the top speed? Take a long, deep breath...410 km/h!

Overcrowded packet for this mustang will attract above all with its beautiful bright gray paintwork, which is also known as 1950’s Porsche 356 Speedster.

Almost perfectly white – but after a closer look you’ll find out, that it’s not quite white. Contrasting with black, that covers a decent amount of cars surface, this look really great! Carefully adjusted front part with modified front grill, headlights and front bumper shows us, that less can really be more sometimes. Elaborate front mask is now decorated with black grill with typical logo Mustang. Modified front bumper can pride with additional carbon spoiler, a pair of complementary headlights and of course with a black grill.

The side of the car remained untouched, only an old-school two-stripe label was added under the door. On the contrary, the roof was radically changed. This is now panoramatic and all vitreous, provided by Webasto. It‘s ending is decorated with a decent listel made of carbon and the third brake light with LED technology.

The exterior of the car is truly enriched with distinctive orange under car neons at the rear bumper and the fender aprons. After opening the doors, also the side sills are enlightened. Many would argue, that this is not appropriate for a car with such a history. Real delicacy is hidden inside the car. It is the expressive brown leather from sixties, with diamond patterns embedded on seats, central panel and as a door cushioning. This is well harmonized with orange top gear lever MRT. On the contrary, the dashboard is painted with dark color, more concretely - Mauna Loa Ash Mica. The overall impression is intensified by modified three-leg steering wheel and additional oil temperature, voltage and pressure gauges positioned above the radio. In order to preserve the FMJ style, gauges were made with chromic borders and showy blue illumination.

The modification would be incomplete without audio set. Tuners have chosen real big-time manufacturer, the favorite of many motorists – the brand Pioneer. Whole thing is managed by main unit Pioneer Premier DEH-P880PRS (DVD + mp3), with three amplifiers - 2 x 600 Watt Amp– PRSD2000T and 1 x 1200 Watt– PRSD1000M. All this set drives 12-inch subwoofer and a pair of powerful speakers TSC720PRS. The antiresonant filling and cabling was provided by company Scosche. The driver will be satisfied.

To make this car work accurately, also the bottom parts had to be rebuilt. The tuned Ford Mustang was given new sporting suspension from company H&R (dampers and springs) with adjustable clearance height and stiffness, H&R stabilizer bars – 36 mm in front and 24 mm in the rear with support, H&R regulating screws for top-down wheel gradient setup and chromic arms + suspension welds. And finally, form maximum safety and handling, professionally cut disc brakes Baer with brake-wheels Extreme Plus 15” in front and EradiSpeed-plus-2 14” in the rear.

We shouldn’t omit the luxurious discs OZ Superlegger III with black central part , with dimensions 9x20 in front and 11.5x20 in the back. Contact with road is secured through high-performance tires Pirelli Pzero Rossi 275/35R 20 in front and 315/35R 20 in the rear. Moreover, new extending supports with thickness 5 mm both in front and rear.

The first part that has been improved is a front bumper. It can’t hide its massive dimensions and also the monumental central opening can’t be missed. Very nice element is a dark glossy line on the upper edge.

As its filling, a popular dark perforated sheet has been used. A sense of details is noticeable on the upper part of the bumper where we can see beautiful lines in a nice harmony with curves of the headlamps and front grille. We can’t forget about a pair of side openings with integrated fog lamps.

The fanciest thing on these openings it is its shape that has a character of engraved lines.

The tuners have also played with side sills. Now they’re maximally simple, but in their rear part we can find a pair of smaller spoilers. These spoilers are very sporting and improve my overall feeling about this ride.

The last stage of this voyage is the rear bumper. It’s typical with the massive black part similar to something like a diffuser. There are three elongated openings filled with a black perforated sheet and with red fog lights. In addition, the left opening includes a stainless exhaust tips.

To achieve a luxurious sporting feeling; the designers have installed a sporting roof wing attached on three legs.

Fiat Grande Punto is a pleasant small car with powerful engines and particularly elegant design. A proof that this isn’t any doughface is the choice of two petrol and four diesel engines. Surprisingly, the most powerful choice is a 1.9 liter V4 common-rail diesel engine producing very nice 130hp (96kW).

The Belgian company Carzone Specials has made tens of stock car’s modifications no matter what’s the model. Maybe the best work is with new, unseen cars as the today’s Fiat is. Their complete bodykit is waiting for its new owner.

This beautiful bodykit includes also a beautifully created front bumper (for 3 and 5-door version) and front mask in one compact unit. It’s characteristic with many rounded cut-outs that are inside the bumper and connected with many details. The dominant is a big central opening for an air-intake to the cooler.

Fiat Grande Punto Tuning
Next to the opening we can notice a pair of teardrop openings and a pair of cut-outs for cooling the front brakes.

So this everything together creates a beautiful entity and straight sporting accent.

In the packet we can find also side sills only for 3-door version. Regarding the overall simplicity of the car, the side sills are quite extravagant. Distinctive shapes improve their image and the innocent Italian is now a brave beast.

The main part of the bumper is a diffuser with a pair of rounded openings and we can’t forget about a pair of elongated openings behind the rear wheels. Punto looks now more dynamic.

Italians have their own style as well as British have. Italian passion, sensuality and temperament lifestyle was translated to their cars. Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, Fiat – these are cars full of emotion with a decent amount of immutable charm. Italian sensitivity reflected on every single vehicle, that was made.

There could not be such a human that wouldn’t know the „snaky“ car company Alfa Romeo. Cars famous with their typical expressive front masks, which evoke only one feeling – perfection. Present model Alfa Romeo 156 represents this unique Italian style. Elegant, comfortable and fast, these are probably the most characteristic words for this sport car.

The offer of engines is really varied – the owner can choose from among five engines, two of which are petrol engines. However, the most powerful among the offered is 2.4-litre Diesel 5-cylinder, which cooperates with powerful turbo. The maximum power, which can be produced by this system is 175 horse powers (129 kW) and torque 385 Nm. Outstanding performance and bloodthirsty design make of this car a high placed individual.

The Exterior
Such over-elaborate modification of exterior of a production car could not be seen for a long time. First to catch the attention is shifty white-red paintwork complemented with plenty of stickers of sponsoring and tuning-engaged companies. The character of race is fully present here. Massive front bumper with integrated robust opening of interesting design make us feel, that purpose of this modification is profound. The filling made of black expanded metal is a matter of course. In connection with braking efficiency improvement, at the sides of bumper were implemented openings a la shark gills – their function is to bring the air to rear brakes. In the lower part of bumper is located a large diffuser, which handles the correction of flowing air under the car.
The rear part of the Alfa Romeo 156 is not worse than the rest of the bodywork. Huge dark diffuser implemented into the rear bumper strikes the eyes and indicates, that resemblance with DMT cars is not an accident. Two more openings were added to take the hot air away from rear brakes. Pleasantly shaped bumper really fits the robust rear part of the car. the cover of the trunk is characteristic with adjustable razor wing, which is known from various racing cars. Certainly, it‘s not there just to show off.

All these parts of the body kit (the bumpers and side sills) continuously interlock with the aid of extended fenders, thanks to which the car gained 10 cm at every side. That’s not bad. In order to give the whole the final jazz, the popular system of vertical door opening (aka Lambo Style Doors) was installed. Do you need anything more?.

Tuning Alfa Romeo 156
The whole is finalized with stylish racing 17-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels shoed in low-profile tires Yokohama, behind them are disk brakes with holes TarOx B350 with 348x26 mm in front and 340x26 mm in the rear. The last ingredient is the sporting suspension, which consists of springs Eibach and dampers with shock-absorbers Bilstein. This system lowers the clearance height by nice 35 mm. This is professional attitude!

Interior
Also the interior was Italian-affected. Its modification is work of native specialist Simoni Racing, which really enjoyed the interior adjustment of this beau. Red and black colors (mostly leather) are dominating the whole interior. This pair of colors can be found on adjusted sporting seats Simoni Racing and three-leg sporting wheel X-Race and on the gearshift lever handle made by the same manufacturer, and there are also new carpets. This two-color combination is supplemented by chromic elements – gear lever, pedal set and fire-extinguisher.

The love between the tuning scene and BMW vehicles may has no limits. More and more frequently we can see new models and tuning cars from all over the world. The BMW cars are real symbols of elegance and distinctive lines, so that’s why majority of tuning companies remain this hidden potential intact. But the Sinister Six isn’t conservative.

Alpine Sinister Six BMW 645i Showcar
The dark Sinister Six is based on BMW 6 Convertible car. The BMW 6 Convertible is an elegant, retiring car that is attractive wherever it moves. Its stylish design attractive for everyone hides also another secret – a 4.8 liter V8 engine producing the maximum output of 367hp (270kW) and this power can boost the car to 100kmph in 5.7 seconds.

It’s not very visible for the first time, but when you look closer at the wheels...and there are other doubts. I can hardly find appropriate words how to call this thing on four wheels, but it’s a car. But it’s undoubtedly something we can’t see every day. Ladies and gentlemen, please meet the showcar Alpine BMW 645i Sinister Six aka Mr. Furious.

Confess, that nobody expected so radical change of the stock car. The complete rebuilt of ordinary BMW 645 to this mad masterpiece consists of exterior and interior changes. It’s a completely reworked stock car. And now you can see the result of many hours spent in a workshop of two guys from the Alpine USA team.

Alpine Sinister Six BMW 645i Showcar
They had accepted the will of their management and built a company showcar to be famous on the stage. So they took an ordinary BMW 645i Convertible (price $82.000) and started to make something unique.

But what attracts first? It’s a futuristic design in Aliens style that’s really elaborated. As we said before, all body parts were removed and only skeleton remained. And then the time for really mad bodykit made of glass fiber came. The car is now wider for about 23cm on each side so something big happened. Again it’s very hard to find right words, because there is many details we can find on the car.

The front part has a typical BMW mask, but a little bit stretched and filled with a grey perforated sheet.

Between the mask and original headlamps we can see a pair of fancy openings in the bumper. But more interesting part of the front is a pair of big spurs with integrated cut-outs on the bumper’s sides to cool down the front brakes. I think there’s no more massive BMW?. Because the core is the BMW convertible, the roof was erased and now it’s a convertible forever. Additionally the frame of front windows was lowered so the glass too. Fluent lines continue from the front part through the broader bumpers to elaborated sides of Mr. Furious.

But we can’t talk about some side sills installed. There are only some decent, but visible shapes of this part. Their main characteristic is four very nice shaped openings with blue illuminated Alpine signs. The elements like these are sometimes a perfect glitter to a car’s design. But the most shocking feature of the side is doors. There aren’t. We’ll talk later about this aim. So now there are two pairs of cooling openings for the brakes. Of course, the dark perforated sheet can’t miss.

Seidl Tuning and Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 is a very nice partnership. Seidl used to tune especially German cars, but know they’ve decided to beat this sharp Japanese.

Because the engine and suspension are up-to-date, they made only bodykit modifications – front bumper, side sills and rear bumper.

The front bumper comes from original lines and it’s slightly modified. There are vertical bars in side openings and both sides has small lollypops now.

The most distinctive change is in case of new paintwork of central part. Now it’s black and it looks very interesting. They continued in the sills and now we can enjoy extreme ones with sporting image.

The rear bumper was next and it consists of three big openings with exhaust tip in one of them. Overall, this bumper looks nice; it’s simple but has nice details. The way of German tuners.

Mercedes-Benz SLK continues in the legacy of smaller luxurious sport convertibles that started in 1954 with the model 190 SL (W121). I think you know this SL and it was very successful. Why not, it has not only unique design, but also handling far better then other cars in that age. 14.5 seconds to 100kmph was something unbelievable in that time for any car. They built 25 881 SL vehicles since May 1955 till February 1963. But Mercedes redeemed this legend in 1996 in Turin when introduced the SLK model (R170). It was face-lifted four years later and the newest model is available since 2004. Design of the newest model is inspirited with features of Formula 1 racing vehicles. That reveals its sporting and elegant character.

Beautifully shaped curves as the excessive top of the front part, wing profiles in the mask and double exhaust tips definitely assign the SLK to the sporting family. Double exhaust

Thanks to the long-time research of aerodynamics; the Mercedes SLK has the lowest coefficient among all convertibles.

An ordinary, not interested man could say that the car is almost perfect and there’s nothing to be improved. But tuners like us know what’s good. And Rieger knows it too.

Rieger remade the big bear to a little chicken. No, it’s not a child toy, its strong characteristic remains and we can play with the very aggressive chicken.

Rieger started with a front bumper. It’s connected with a front mask. Front maskTo change the whole look; Rieger changed the front hood too. Also the front mask isn’t divided to two parts, but it belongs to the front bumper.

But something is missing in the front. Yes, there’s no three-spoke star on the edge, the logo of Mercedes-Benz. There’s only a big chromed circle with the logo on the front mask. You can obtain also a circle without this Mercedes Benz logo. There are quite big eyebrows on the front lights in same color as the body. I think that’s all about the front.
