Pennsylvania’s eXoMod Concepts has just unveiled its latest and perhaps greatest upgrade package for the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, turning it into a carbon fiber-bodied lookalike of the 1968 Dodge Charger.
The company goes to town on the Challenger to ensure that even owners of original ’68 Chargers are envious of it, referring to its latest creation as the Black Velvet. Indeed, each of its builds takes roughly 1,500 hours and the body of Black Velvet is made entirely from lightweight carbon fiber.
Every body panel of the Challenger is replaced as part of the transformation. The front fascia is particularly impressive with hidden headlights just like the Charger, a new hood, and gorgeous squared front quarter panels. What’s particularly impressive about the car’s transformation is that the proportions are quite close to an original Charger, despite the car actually being a modern-day Challenger.
As it stands, eXoMod Concepts has only built a single example of the Black Velvet but will build more, depending on customer orders. Behind the gorgeous carbon fiber body panels, the car benefits from a black pearl paint job as well as two stripes that run horizontally across the rear decklid and quarter panels. The Dodge also sits on a set of custom Smoke wheels from Forgeline that measure 20×10 at the front and 20×12 at the rear while wrapped in 315/35 Nitto NT555 tires.

While you could be excused for thinking that the new body only benefits the aesthetics of the car, they will actually aid in performance as they reduce weight by a massive 400 lbs. Given that eXoMod Concepts doesn’t mess with the car’s standard 6.2-liter supercharged V8, it also retains the original Dodge drivetrain warranty.
