URBAN WHIP GLK BUILD PROCESS
Click on the thumbnails to view a time lapsed journey of the GLK Urban Whip transformation
from start to finish. With over 3000 man hours jammed into 47 days it was a wild
but rewarding ride to the finish line.
Day 1 – We received our totally stock 2010 Mercedes Benz GLK350 and had it stripped
to bare metal within 2 hours!
Day 3 - We removed the roof and pillars to start the transformation to the ultimate
speedster with reinforced panels, etc.
Day 14 – we received the body kit pieces and began removing them from the molds
, some came easier than others!
Day 21 – the stereo installation began with running wires and making fiberglass
molds for the subwoofers that would be installed in the doors
Day 22 – custom rear seats were crafted as well as a custom center console
Day 17 - Suspension modifications were made to custom fit the 26” wheels and Pirelli
tires
Day 26 – body kit fitted
Day 38 - body kit painted and installed
Day 40 speedster cover assembly designed
Day 44 interior installation
Day 46 stereo amp rack
Day 47 – DELIVERY! After our party we put the GLK on transport headed for MB USA
Headquarters in NJ, where we wouldn’t see her again until the reunion in LV.
