I'm not a Tim Westwood pimp my ride fan, especially when Astons are involved, but I do enjoy a subtle tweak here and there.

Can you see what's changed? Answers on a postcard...

Yep true but that was done a few months back.

Something else has been changed.

A couple of stones on the drive appear to have moved.

Assuming it's an older V8V... clear rear lenses?

Juan King is closest - the visual affect is that the rear bumper has been smoothed - In reality the rear reflectors have been sprayed Onyx Black!

PS that Megane is not mine!!!!

You have had the small red reflective lenses in the rear bumper replaced with paint color coded solid inserts?

Bought a new set of reflectors from the dealer, sent them to a bodyshop I know of to get prepped and sprayed, had Aston put them on for me during last service. I do have a replacement original set and I can use a magnetic reflector in order to pass the MOT.

You're right, I use Hagley AM and my car is frequently there!

That looks great, so the reflectors have to be in place for an MOT?

Yep - reflectors are a requirement for the MOT
OP where are you going to fix the magnetic ones?
Bumper is plastic & boot is composite?
