Wald International Teases SLK R172 Black Bison Bodykit

As we were mentioning on their last two teasers, the S-Class W222 and the E-Class W212 facelift, we're starting to think that Wald International has a completely different team of bodykit designers now than it had a few years ago.

We say this because we were used to flamboyant spoilers that look like the mouth part of an insect, but things have definitely changed in 2013.

Today, the Japanese bodykit specialists released a teaser for another Mercedes-Benz model they're working on, and this time is the rarely-touched-by-tuners SLK R172.

Keep in mind this is a rendering and the final product might differ a bit from what we're seeing here, but it doesn't look half bad if you ask us.

As usual, the kit sports the Black Bison moniker, despite having little to do design-wise with the original one from a few years ago. We're now also waiting for a redesigned Black Bison bodykit for the A-Class and the CLA, as they are the only 2013 three-pointed star models that haven't been touched by the Japanese so far.
