Looking for a new look for your CL-Class? Japanese tuners VITT Performance have unveiled a new widebody kit for the Mercedes CL-Class coupes. In VITT CL-Class Super Wide Edition form, the curvy but conservative CL gets the supercar treatment, with dramatic reworkings of the front and rear fenders and side sills. The bulging fenders are complemented by a choice of new front and rear aprons and a spoiler package. The new front bumper includes quad foglights. VITT also adds a roof spoiler and a vented hood.

20-inch wheels and a stainless exhaust comprise the bulk of the mechanical upgrades in this appearance package.

Pricing for the full VITT CL-Class Super Wide conversion is set at about $20,000.

Doesnt suit this type of car (luxury 2 door) but I think on the road it must look menacing...depending on the point of view, it looks either like ass or like a goddess...

To be honest, I really like this kit. Looks great on both the white and grey colours.

Hell yes! I'd have this kit on a CL Black. I love the (IMO) tasteful widebody kit and the rims look great on there. It looks mean.

I'm sure people will disagree with me, but I think this car looks ugly both Modified and stock. Ugh.

While this doesn't change my mind about Japanese tuners, I am glad to see that, despite such heavy bodywork modification, the overall finish is still relatively clean looking. There are odd creases and vents I don't care for, but overall, a good product. But for goodness sake, can someone tell the Japs nobody likes the word "super" here in the west? It is tacky, like most of the tuned rubbish from the East.

This reminds me of the sort of wide boded white Mercs that were "popular" in the 80s: vomit inducingly hideous but a mast-have for sheiks. So little has changed it seems...

Big Mercedes-Benz Coupés have always fallen prey to tacky aftermarket body jobs. I remember some shockers on the otherwise elegant 1980s SECs.

Yeah i still kick myself in the ass for not picking up a 1988 560 SEC in Cali with 7,000 miles for 14,500$. It was absolutely mint, red on tan leather. I will never forgive myself for missing out on that one.

The CL 65 AMG is a gorgeous beast, this thing is ugly.
