Just looking at the widened sills bodykit on the N400 in the classifieds and I think it spoils the simplicity of the design on the v8 whereas I love them on the DBS - what do people think ?

I actually really like the N400 sills - more so than the sills on the V12 Vantage, in fact I've asked my local dealer for a quote on supply, paint and fit for them smile

I think it's because they make the V8 look even more butch - and as that's its aim in the range I think it works. It's all so subjective though...

Agreed it is totally subjective - I just think the standard Vantage shape is the best looking Aston ( even though I have a DB9 ) because of it's right first time simplicity and purity and personally I would leave it alone .

Very interested to learn what you're quoted.
