235 exhibitors, 152 clubs, ten halls and almost 100.000 visitors; Tuning World Bodensee once again showed what will be hip on cars upcoming summer.


Four days of tuning highlife in Mai? This must be the time for Tuning World Bodensee in Friedrichshafen. Exactly 87.000 came this time to see shiny chrome jewels, the latest tuning trends and hot girls.


Dotz showed itself upfront with a new booth. One of the higlights was a DS3 on 18 inch Rapier, tuned up to 190hp by Germans Musketier.


Dotz took care of a load of action at the booth during the days, cause the tuning brand brought everything to Friedrichshafen, which makes up the brand: as are Dotz girls Dani and Steffi,...


...the latest custom finish and clothing collection,...


...Dotz teamrider Peter Riedel with his airbrush and the Dotz branding for his girls and, of course,...


...the complecte rim collection.


Clearly an offer like this attracts a lot of demand; the Dotz booth was jammed on a regular basis during the days.


But this surely wasnt it regarding the Dotz universe. Next to the cinema trailer, which was shown and which runs in front of Fast & Furious 5 actually, three of the teamriders brought their cars to Friedrichshafen. Like Werner Hirsch, whose Ford Mustang V8 Premium GT with the 20 inch Tupac was placed prominently next to the main entrance.


Next to another entry Jazz „Lostboy“ Williams drove by. His Nissan Skyline, nicknamed „Diva“, has just returned to Southern Germany from the opening drift race in Norway.


After this load of work there was time for some chill-out with Dani and Steffi.

But still, this wasn´t all: Dotz teamrider Katrin Jörg drove her Polo 86C coupe with a brushed Freeride Peak to Friedrichshafen and stopped at German Maestro, where lush basses and high treble was dominating during the Car & Sound-fair, which was held at the same time as Tuning World.


But also the rest of the programm was worth while. Team Horn Motor Sport brought a SLS AMG GT3 to the fair. The wing door car took fourth place at first race of the long distance championship.


Panzani meanwhile tunes up a Jaguar. This S Type with a mighty diffusor comes with 395hp and 541 Newton meter.


The clubscene once again showed a lot of holistic concepts. A BMW White Pearl oder...


...a 250hp strong Renaut Megane RS with an all over spider costume.


Love to the design was shown like the finetuning...


...under the bonnet.

Next to the clubs also the big producers seem to realize the increasing relevance of the Tuning World. Skoda and Citroen came to Friedrichshafen like BMW, who showed its Performance Parts-series.

Within the Car & Sound-fair Rockford Fosgate took care of the most volume. Simply with the audio system in this Toyota Scion from 2005 the whole fairground was rocked.

But others where not far away from that target.


And the supporting programme was worth a visit for itself. The Glam Girls danced a few shows a day, fire and hypnosis shows alternated with the dancing cars of the Lowriders.
