Following on from its Audi TT RS project, Folien Center has released details of a recently completed Volkswagen Passat CC R-Line owned by one of its regular customers.

Externally, the company has applied a matte Marrakech Brown foil to the bodyshell with raised R logo on the C-pillar, while the radiator grille, mirror casings and roof have been painted in high-gloss black. The multi-piece Bentley Mulliner wheels, which measure 9 x 20-inches, feature matte black centres and wear 225/30 Nankang NS-II tyres, while the ride height is reduced thanks to an adjustable KW coilover set-up.

Moving inside, FC has left the R-Line-equipped cabin relatively untouched apart from wrapping the aluminium sections on the dashboard, centre console and door panels in body-coloured foil.

The performance upgrade was handled by SKN, who fitted their Stage One software upgrade to the 2.0 litre TDI engine, which saw output from the dainty oil burner climb from 127 kW (170 hp) and 350 Nm of torque to 157 kW (210 hp) and 400 Nm.
