RevoZport Volkswagen Golf VI GTI RZR

A new styling kit for the Volkswagen Golf VI GTI has been released by RevoZport, called the RZR package. It should be available around February 2010 from the company who specialize in producing carbon fiber and special composite material products.

Several other cars that RevoZport customizes include BMW, Lotus, Ferrari, and Mercedes. The latest tuning kit for the VW Golf VI GTI includes a new front bumper with LED lights, front splitter, vented bonnet, side skirts, fender flares, rear bumper, and a spoiler extending from the roof.


The company’s mods change the face of the car by adding a new front bumper, adjustable splitter, and LED lighting. Fender flares fit to the stock sidesills. A new rear bumper, with adjustable diffuser, is also available, as are carbon mirror caps and carbon rear spoiler. When not using carbon fiber, RevoZport engineers used Pultrudeed Fiber Reinforced Plastic, all helping to save weight.

Dacia Duster comes in from the cold

Renault’s low-cost sub-brand reveals production version of its compact SUV in the form of an ice racer

Dacia is anticipating a frosty reception for its latest model! Underneath the racing livery and bulging bodywork, this is the production version of Dacia’s low-cost BMW X1 rival, the Duster, first seen as a concept at the Geneva show in March this year




The car shown here has been specially adapted to compete in the Trophée Andros ice-racing championship in France, hence the alpine setting. And the car will be driven by none other than four-time F1 champion Alain Prost.

Renaultsport modifications include narrow snow tyres, a 3.0-litre 350bhp engine and a stripped out interior keeping weight down to just 950kg, while a six-speed sequential gearbox feeds power to all four wheels.

There’s no official word yet on when the production Duster will be revealed, but judging by the readiness of this competition car’s bodywork, expect it to make an appearance at the Geneva show early this year.

Nissan GT-R Official by Tommy Kaira, photos and details

Previously Tommy Kaira announced their initial renderings of the new aero kit for the highly sought after Nissan GT-R. Now we have the official pictures of the body kit set to display at the Tokyo Auto Salon. The new kit is called ‘Wet Carbon’ from Tommy Kaira, and features several new body pieces.



A new front bumper with lip spoiler, side skirts, air ducts all around, rear bumper, trunk spoiler, rear racing diffuser, and fender flares for the rear give the Nissan GT-R a fantastic look. Surely this will become one of the most popular body kits for the GTR, and many will try to duplicate the quality work by Tommy Kaira.

Two kit choices are available, the first being a very comprehensive one while the second just works on the front end. The full kit consists of, among others, a wet carbon front bumper, a front grille cover, lip spoiler, under diffuser, side ducts and side skirts.

The rear also features wet carbon in the form of a racing diffuser, a rear wing and rear fender extensions. The AVS Model F15 Platinum black wheels are shod with Pirelli P-Zero 255/40R20 and 285/35R20 front and rear tyres respectively.

In terms of small class cars, the competition is high. Each automaker is struggling for “absolute supremacy”, releasing on the market models that are more and more attractive, both in terms of design, the engines or the facilities.

Renault UK has brought back to life version “S” of the little one Clio, which includes, in addition to the design elements, three engines more specific and more “green”: two petrol engines of 1.2, one 75 hp and another turbo 100 hp and a 1.5l diesel, which generates about 86 horsepower.

The interesting part is the design, of course, because it is the first to draw attention on the special edition of “S”. What’s new?!? Well technically not too many decals can be found in the topic model for front bumper lip white, white wheels on 16″ special model – “Polar”.


The interior is matching the exterior: trim is sewn with white thread, with the logo “S” embroidered on the headrests, send links to theme sites found on the side decals, leather steering wheel and a few other details.

Renault used by the line “S” between the 90, currently, little Clio is only available for UK market, the price of 13,000 Pounds. We we`ll have to wait more…
