PP Exclusive has put together a mild tuning package for Mercedes-Benz SL-Class R230 facelift. Without any performance upgrades, the modifications consist mainly of stylistic enhancements. Starting from the ground up, the SL-Class has been fitted with PP Exclusive's Majestic wheel with the front wheels sized 11x20 inch (with 3.5 inch outer rims) and the back wheels are 13x20 inch (5 inch outer rim) fitted with Dunlop tires of sizes 255/30R20 and 305/25R20. The Majestic wheels are available up to 23-inches in size. The wheel set combined with an electronic module which lowers the suspension by up to 100mm provides a scraping look that's literally down to earth. As a result, the wheel arches had to be extended with additional sheet metal grafted onto the existing arches to widen them 25 mm up front and 55 mm at the back. For the exterior the final touch includes a stainless steel exhaust system with catalytic converter and four oval-shaped tailpipes. Inside, the driver and passenger seats have been finished in white Nappa leather with black stitching. The wood trim of the dashboard have been replaced with matching white pieces while the sun visors and the roof interior have been finished in black Alcantara. The SL steering wheel has been replaced with a smaller unit which has a flat bottom and is finished with Alcantara.
