no, never, bad, sad, wrong, cheap, grow up, have some respect, get out of here, delete, not worthy.

Some people just don't get it do they.

So wrong in so many ways. Like dressing Kristin Scott Thomas in pink.

wow! surprising response.

What's so wrong about it? To me it's no where near as vulgar as the Vantage V12 or the DBS.

I usually hate aftermarket wheels but these work.

Oh C'mon!!! Halfords!!! You're talking out of your arse. This is what you describe: http://www.egmcartech.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/... not even close to what I posted.

FWIW, The DBS is covered with more creases, scoops and vents than most cars featured in MAX Power.

Also, Compare the original pic I posted to this:

i`m sorry mate but i`ve just looked at all three in quick sucession and the only conclusion i can draw is that they are all as bad as each other(although the air scoops in front of the rear arches on one of them just made me lose my will to live)i just do not get this need to fk something up that is so beautiful to begin with.i imagine it`s a bit like convincing a supermodel to marry you but then insisting she gets all sorts of weird tattoes and piercings all over her face.

wasn't keen on the original ASTON wheels,the split rims are a improvement quality wise I'm sure, not my style but we all see things differently that's why Therese so many styles available,
i like the White kit pity they don't do one for the Vanquish as i'm looking to mod mine. firstly new 3 piece rims 20"x11" possibly carbon fibre (just need to decide a style) 315 tyres if poss for the Wide look, and then int mod to get rid of the nasty cheap looking plastic.Ive seen a nice carbon splitter somewhere
Dose any one know of any body mods for the Vanquish? bumpers sills and boot spoiler may be?

Personally I think the v8 vantage is stunning in standard form without any bodykit modifications.

However if I were to change a vantage I'd opt for 2 mods. I'd go for a set of these wheels



and clear rear lights like those on the n400/vantage RS.



But I wouldn't change the shape/style of the body as it is perfect the way it is.

I must say i like clean lines of the vantage boot and slim tail lights lots better than the Vanquish.
Are the clear lights a after market part or Aston Martin only?
The lines of the 1-77 tail lights are verry nice i would like to find a company to Max mine to leds and 1-77 style.

found the Mansory kit ,just got the catalogue and price list today.(ouch)
dose any one know the manufacturer of the clear n400 rs tail lights ? are they led?
could any one be so kind as to trace round a tail light in paper as id like to see if its possible to body mod my vanquish to take a pair , if i cant get some similar made.
any contacts any one? who makes the one-77 lights?
Ive got the kahn wheels,(but want to uprate to some pieces of "art")and twin flashes,lowered suspension and now would like to tidy up my "non s" dated looking ass end a bit,lights,boot bumper and under skirt.
then id like to let Khan tidy up the interior.has any one changed there dash console?

Cheers Rick is that for the pair?
I need a paper/card pattern off one,to see if Vanguard to Vanquish is feasable,do you have a light you could draw round?
I hope to start rear end work on my vanquish tomorrow and would like to know if these lights are possible with slight mods to the rear (in the form of removable filler panels around the light and bumper)
Are the boot lids much different profiles could i mod a boot and bumper? the Vanguard has much less cellulite in this area. thank you John

they are produced in Canada - was written on the lights when we installed them wink
