Default Wald International takes on the luxury/sports car world with new aero kits and looks

Tuners typically roll out one package at a time. When a big tuner show like SEMA comes around, maybe a couple at a time. But Japanese tuning firm Wald International is launching five body kits for some of the most desirable top-of-the-line luxury sedans, all at the same time.

Included in Wald's plans are aero kits for the Rolls-Royce Ghost, Porsche Panamera, Infiniti M, Jaguar XJ and BMW 7 Series. Throw in a Quattroporte, Mercedes CLS, maybe a Bentley and the Aston Martin Rapide in there and they'd have the whole kit and kaboodle covered. Not much in the way of details available as of yet on this quintet of modified luxury wheels, but from the looks of it, each has been lowered and mounted with new front fascias, side skirts and big ol' alloys. Check 'em out for yourself below.

Should have been a 2-door. Would have been a nice large shooting-brake, thats for certain. Its a nice kit though.

One thing I have a feeling someone in UAE is going to turn this car into a station wagon lol

I think wald makes great kits. I know some dont like them or think they can be a little aggressive but I think they look amazing including the Panamera
