Those are great looking pics, but I don't think it's a black series. Yes it has the front (or replicated) fenders. However, the front bumper should have carbon fiber vents and not painted 2-slot vents. In addition, the interior seems to have the standard 55 seats.

Of course, that doesn't take away from the pics. They look great.

It's just a cover for the Euro license plate. Probably put on just for the pics.

Yep.

And it is not the black series. The car just has a painted roof, headlights and custom fenders made by us The wheels are custom painted 19 inch KAHN RS-V.

Thank you all for the replies and kind words.

But Congrats!
I disagree. I think the SLK55/SLK350 with amg kit looks just as good in person. I think the standard SLK280/350 looks soft and less aggressive especially in the flesh.

Just another comment regarding pics vs reality. I think the Z06 looks okay in pics but pretty damn good in reality.

I didn't notice the black roof before. I think you did a great job with all your mods. Very nice indeed. Also, I like the motion pics the most. I bet all your pics were done at 1-3am in the morning to get enough time and little disruption in setup. Those pics take some dedication.

Wow, that's the most agressive looking SLK I think I've ever seen. I like how you painted a single spoke on each wheel.

Oh ya, pictures are okay
