Chris Thompsen

Chris Thompsen saw the Suhorovsky Design widebody kit for the SL500, and immediately fell in love. So in love, in fact, that it prompted the purchase of the 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL500 to fit it on. With spoken plans of an unconventional swap in the future, the modification of this bad-ass looking machine has only just begun.
