The Mercedes-Benz CLK (C209) was the second and last generation of the CLK nameplate, so in a way you can probably call it special for ending a (very short) legacy.

Despite us being on a Mercedes-Benz blog, we're pretty sure that most of our readers are familiar with the work of Rauh Welt Begriff, which is a Japanese bodykit maker specialized in air-cooled Porsche 911s.

Akira Nakai's nuts and bolts style has made him famous all over the world, but he is not the only Japanese bodykit maker that is using this “rough” approach to body styling that mimics racing cars.

Rocket Bunny, for example, are known mostly for their Toyota and Nissan bodykits, but recently they also concluded a Mercedes-Benz CLK (C209), and we have to say that the end result is pretty spectacular. Everything outside and inside the model makes it look like it's a full-blown racing car.

Unfortunately, it isn't a racing car and the only part that has been left completely untouched is its rather unflattering 2.6-liter V6 engine, but it seems that an engine swap is in planning. You can check out the full article on the car on SpeedHunters.
