German-based tuner MEC Design has released a sporty new body kit for the Mercedes S-Class that offers a variety of different options to suit a potential owner's unique taste.
Up front, the kit comes with a "2face" front bumper system which allows customers to choose between having the air intakes filled with driving lights and fog lights or just mesh. At the rear, the company offers a choice of either an "elegant" rear diffuser or the "sport" version which is pictured. Regardless of which diffuser is used, a specially designed stainless steel quad exhaust system is part of the package. Once again potential owners have a choice of either an "Earthquake" version for maximum sound or a more discrete setup for blending in. Rounding out the other key changes are aggressive side skirts which can be outfitted with optional LED lights and three piece MEC Design alloy wheels that measure 11x20 front and 13x20 rear.
Inside, virtually everything remains the same as the only changes are the addition of a new sports steering wheel and leather floor mats.

MEC Design show off some real S-Class Bodykit
European tuning experts MEC Design are pleased to show off their new bodykit for the Mercedes-Benz S Class.
The MEC Design S-Class bodykit is a 2face system which allows the customer the choice of having the front bumper with driving lights and fog lights or with just mesh. At the rear the customer can also choose between having the sporty looking diffusor or to go with the more refined elegant diffusor. The side skirts continue the beautiful lines and are available with or without LED lighting (5 per side) which is linked up to the internal lighting. The spoiler on the rear trunklid rounds off the rear end nicely.
The MEC Design sports exhaust system is manufactured from mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing, stainless steel resonator and muffler. The sounds that it produces are pretty amazing; the featured version is called "Earthquake" although it is available in a quieter version. The delicately placed embossed MEC Design logo on the quad oval chrome tips are the perfect finishing touch.
The interior features the MEC Design sports multi-functional airbag steering wheel. The distinctive ergonomically designed handles and its precious wood inlay and leather make it a pleasure to grip. The footmats are made from precious velours and feature Nubuck leather embroidery again with the MEC Design logo.
The alloy wheels are also designed by MEC Design and are a 3 piece design. The forged centre piece is high gloss compressed and has stainless steel outer rims. The front features 11x20 with 4,5 inch outer rims and 285/25 ZR 20 Hankook tires, whilst the rear has 13x20 with 5 inch outer rims again with 325/25 ZR 20 Hankook tires. The front axel has 10mm spacers and the rear axel 19mm spacers. All the bodywork has been done without the need for painting or lackering
