McLaren Sport Series buyers now have even more options available to personalize their cars.

McLaren Special Operations has extended its range of MSO Defined options, adding a new Black Pack, Titanium SuperSports exhaust, extended carbon fiber sill covers, and the choice of black or McLaren Orange painted ignition keys.

The Black Pack offers 570S Coupe or 570GT buyers the opportunity to specify exterior body parts to be finished in black, as a replacement for the standard Dark Palladium gray components. Those exterior body parts include: front splitter, front aero blades, side skirts and side air intakes, door inserts, rear diffuser, rear spoiler, and rear bumper. Included on the 570S Coupe Black Pack are the waist finisher, rear deck, and service cover.

There’s also a Nano Black exhaust finisher that complements the Black Pack for those that also opt for the Titanium SuperSports exhaust, instead of the standard Nano Clear exhaust finisher.

The Titanium SuperSports exhaust is available for the 570S Coupe, 570GT, and 570S Spyder, and weighs 11 pounds (5 kilograms) less than the standard Sport Series exhaust. Along with the weight savings, the new exhaust system provides a “cleaner, crisper exhaust tone that has a pronounced crescendo above 5,000rpm and peaks at 5dB louder than the Sport Series system,” said McLaren.

Pricing in the U.K. was announced with the exhaust costing £4,750 ($6,550 USD), and the system will be available for retro-fitment starting mid-2018 as part of McLaren Aftersales.

Those that love carbon fiber can opt for the MSO Defined extended carbon fiber sill covers with McLaren branding in satin finish visual carbon fiber. The carbon fiber sill covers are available on the 540C and 570S Coupe, 570GT, and 570S Spider.
