A few weeks ago, we have featured the new SLK R172 that’s been fitted with Brabus tuner parts (link →). The owner of that SLK has chosen to go through the classy and elegant route of modification. It was black in color and the whole setup of the car, including the photo set, resembles a multitude of luxurious senses. Today’s SLK has been set up to go through a completely different route. The owner has magnified the SLK’s inner sports car soul, with a red body and a set of matte black BC Forged wheels that has turned this SLK into one very seductive beauty.

The SLK has always been intended by Mercedes Benz to be their representation in the compact roadster car market. Ever since the early designs, Mercedes Benz has managed to properly balance the three major elements of the car: sporty + luxurious + compact design. It was then up to each owner’s preferences as to which elements are to be amplified through modifications.

Wanting to differentiate his SLK from the rest, the owner has chosen a black-and-red theme for his ride. Tailights are tinted, wheels are matte black, and carbon parts are added; all to provide the sporty black accent on this beautiful red car.

In this current setup, a set of BC Forged wheels has been chosen for the car; but, the owner has actually been in his waiting period for a set of ADV.1 wheels. If BC Forged can look this good on this SLK, I believe a set of ADV.1 wheels would have blown it all off the water.

Apart from the ADV.1 wheels, the owner has also been working on the installation of AMG big brake kit for both front and rear.
