Wald International has fired a barrage of new body kit packages recently, such as the E90 3-Series, BMW M5 and Mercedes C-Class. And now their latest release, is possibly one of their most important. Wald, in our humble opinion, can be hot and cold with their designs, but it seems they've got a winner with their GT-R Sports Line kit.
Perhaps not as radical as the purpose built GT-R GT500 race car for the Japanese Super GT race series, but Wald's initial design, which is still in development, shows a menacing track-prepped look particularly with the rear wheel arch flairs, rivet clips included. Also in the kit are front bumper fascia, lower rear bumper fascia with integrated diffuser, side skirts, upper rear wing extension and lower lip spoiler on the deck lid - both in carbon fiber.
The front and rear bumper fascias at first glance appear over-styled with excessive air ducts and prominent non-functional rear diffuser, but still somehow manage to compliment the GT-R with just enough restraint without going too far.R
[UPDATE 09.08.2008] - Wald has sent us hi-res versions of the four beauty shots plus six new photos of the GT-R's interior accessories. The beauty shots are not showing the finalized design and will change slightly. Also, Wald informs us that the GT-R Sports Line kit deliveries will not begin until end of 2008 or beginning of 2009 due to high volume of orders.
