Two demo cars of note were picked up from the WALD booth at OAM2024

WALD, one of the long-established aero parts and aluminum wheel brands, had a booth that stood out from the crowd at Osaka Auto Messe (OAM) 2024. Here we introduce a demo car with a bold customisation.

The Mercedes-Benz GLS with bold over fenders is a mature custom

WALD is a well-known brand for VIP car users of the past and is also known for releasing high-quality items such as aero parts that are adopted as genuine options by car manufacturers. Toyota Land Cruiser 300, Alphard/Vellfire, and other popular luxury vehicles were on display.

One of the most notable exhibits was a demo car-wearing item for the Mercedes-Benz GLS, which is rare for a domestic aero manufacturer.

The aero parts designed for the sporty design of the AMG line consist of a front spoiler, rear skirt, over wings, rear wing, and duct cover. The design is as natural as the genuine AMG line, but with a taste that is different from the stock parts, giving the car the appearance of a customized car for adults.

And yet, inside the over fenders, which are 20mm wide on one side, are WALD GENUINE LINE MB-001 wheels, 24″ x 10J in size. Furthermore, spacers were added to the wheels, which was a surprise.

New aero and wheels installed on the famous Celica XX of yesteryear

While preparing items like this that are perfect for moist luxury models, the company has also released a brand called WALD Classics, in collaboration with Speedforme, another aero manufacturer.

A60-series Toyota Celica XX (Supra) was on display at the event, fitted with the brand’s front spoiler and over wings, as well as an irregular 8-spoke alloy wheel named Octopus Racing, which best matches the old car.

The style of the car was designed to produce a sense of speed while retaining the classical atmosphere of the old car, and although the company has not yet decided on future variations, one can’t help but hope that the finish will be horizontally expanded to other old car models.
