CLR X650 BMW X6 by Lumma

Tuning companies are catching on to the all powerful teaser image, and German tuner, Lumma Design, have issued theirs - with the controversial BMW X6 model. Love it or hate it, the BMW X6 Coupe Crossover is an interesting car and Lumma's CLR X650 is no different – yet in a different character.With a beefy front bumper fascia, which contains no less than 6 air vent openings, the entire kit gets a dash of aggression with side skirts and quarter panel leg vents plus revised mirrors, however, the added attitude comes from the 40mm suspension drop with the 23-inch arch filling black dished wheels.As one of the first tuning companies to put together a dramatic styling kit for the X6, the CLR X650 takes the whole X6 hatchback coupe vibe and molds...

Volkswagen Fox by RDX Racedesign

The Volkswagen Fox may not be on the top of your list for an aerodynamic make-over, but RDX Racedesign caters for a niche market of Fox fans. RDX designed a new front spoiler with integrated grille, side sills and a new rear apron to give the rather conservative small car a brand new look. The RDX badgeless front end lends the Fox with a Golf GTI-look while the new Audi S6 daylight running lights are an optional extra. The side sills and rear diffuser match perfectly and RDX has left the rear bumper without tailpipe cut-outs, leaving that to the discretion of their customers. The body kit is fully TÜV certified and approved and costs just over Euro 6...

Audi Q7 Street Rocket by JE Design

JE Design has issued their second interpretation of the Audi Q7. The Q7 Street Rocket represents a toned down less obese looking body package compared to its Q7 Wide Body predecessor, just without all of the bulbous overhangs such as the wide body fender flares. Looking closely between the two kits the Street Rocket sheds the excessive wide body fender and quarter panel wheel arch flares. As a result, the front bumper lower spoiler gets redesigned to fit the new width dimensions of the body and the rear bumper gets simplified as well in the same fashion. However, the overall design details of the front and rear bumpers remains the same. Gone are the roof spoiler extensions which extend down the side of the D-pillar. Sporting a brandy wine...
