Berlin-based tuning specialist MEC Design has released details of its options for the R231 SL-Class model by Mercedes-Benz.

Visually, this SL 550 version wears a pair of AMG-style bumpers and is fitted with a new exhaust system culminating in quadruple trapezoidal tailpipes, with flap control allowing a choice of two acoustic levels: ‘Daytona’ and ‘Earthquake’.

The two-door grand tourer is brought closer to the ground thanks to MEC’s Electronic Lowering System (ELS) module, which can provide a drop of around 55 mm, while a set of the company’s three-piece mecxtreme I alloy wheels, measuring 10 and 12 x 20-inches and wrapped in 255/30ZR20 and 305/25ZR20 Continental tyres, complete the look.
