Exciting Aerodynamic Design
Attractive bodywork design in optimal harmony of forms: FAB DESIGN® makes the new Mercedes Benz S-class (W221) even more exciting.

“The face in the crowd” is the motto of the aerodynamic parts by FAB DESIGN® complete bumper for front and back of the car. The bumpers can be easily exchanged from the standard bumpers thanks to the use of the standard fixing points.

The FAB DESIGN® front spoiler energically cuts through the air stream and gives the luxury limousine a new face with its round shape and the large air intakes for cooler and brakes.

The FAB DESIGN® side skirts make the Mercedes look visually longer and lower.

The new FAB DESIGN® rear bumper does not only make the back of the car look more attractiv, but it also has a cut-out in its lower wing for the FAB DESIGN® quadruple-pipes sports exhaust system made out of stainless steel.

The individual look can be furthermore accentuated with the 6 hole spoke design, 3-piece forged FAB DESIGN® type 6 Evoline alloy wheels at the frontaxle 9J x 20 ET 32 with 255/35 ZR 20 and at the rearaxle 10J x 20 ET 36 with 285/30 ZR 20 Dunlop high performance tires.

FAB DESIGN® can offer to customer the FAB DESIGN® FK 5.0 K Supercharged Engine. The 5-liter V8 engine is equipped with a FAB DESIGN® supercharger. At 5500 rpm the engine heaves a whopping 540 hp onto the crankshaft. The FAB DESIGN® supercharger found its rightful place between the cylinder banks. This location provides the sport induction lengths necessary for superfast response times. The FK 5.0 K reaches its torque maximum of 750 Nm at just 4,000 rpm. Thus equipped the S-class accelerates in just 4.9 seconds from 0-100 km/h and is not satisfied until the needle indicates a top speed of 296 km/h.

i am liking the kit...and not lking the wheels.

Definately like the kit. The rear looks more aggressive and sporty. The wheels are a little to techy for me; not elegant enough fot the S and not sporty enough for the kit.

Its an okay kit. Wheels are ugly, so is that rear fender outlet and that huge roof spoiler. If subtle is your thing, stock AMG kit is the way to go.

LexLaw

Dump the wheels!!! Otherwise I could do that.

Gojirra99

Yup, the AMG kit's still the best, & yes those wheels are

Richie

Not a bad looking kit.

i like the wheels.....

It looks okay, but I would dump the rear roof spoiler, and go with different wheels.

i am not really liking the kit myself, and the exhaust looks too big in the back?

the wheels..... no....

TheRupp

Agreed, and I'm not feeling that kit or wheels either. Especially that open area behind the rear wheel well

Kit is ok, I really like the roof spoiler though. I agree with Henry, the exhaust looks too big in the rear. For some reason I cant get past the fenders, but I have seen a few of these in person and the fenders dont really stick out to me as much in person.
