There was the Mercedes G-Class, the Porsche Cayenne II, the Range Rover Evoque, and now this: the Prior-Design PD5X Widebody BMW X5. It's a pretty serious overhaul, albeit, we are talking about an exterior job. The kit's called the PD5X Widebody, and alongside the usual suspects – that is, the new front bumper with a spoiler lip, side skirts and rear bumper with a diffuser attached – there are ot

JMS Upgrades For The Common Volkswagen Golf VII

Those of you that are stuck with a Golf VII that's not a GTI or an R will be pleased to know that JMS has this small enhancement pack which might bridge the commons with the performers. Maybe. It certainly doesn't sound glamarous. The pack employs a frontlip spoiler “with an integrated diffuser” that is supposed to be screwed and glued on the stock bumper – quite DIY if you as us. There's also a color-coded diffuser at the back, which again – we suspect – has to be bolted onto the stock rear. There is, howeve

Vorsteiner Mercedes-Benz CLS 63 AMG Photo Shoot

Vorsteiner's Mercedes-Benz CLS 63 AMG came out quite some time ago. Apparently, customer response was good because the project is still alive and kicking. Hence, this gorgeous photo shoot of a black CLS 63 AMG wearing the same Vorsteiner suit. Actually,  "suit" is a massive overstatement. Maybe its the discrete nature of the thing that made it has made it popular among gear heads. There isn't much on the CLS apart from the front add-on spoiler, rear diffuser, and decklid spoiler. The exposed carbon-fiber is a ni
