V12 - Carbon fibre side strakes

[JohnG1]

Has anyone got a V12 Vantage Carbon edition? Do you have photos of the side strakes? I'm thinking about retrofitting to my V12 to go along with the splitter and diffuser...

P23 of the Aston Martin Photo thread has a good photo.
Sorry, don't how how to link that....

I'd be interested to know the cost of fitting these too.

If I recall correctly I think I saw £699 plus fitting on some performance accessory site recently..

[Adam2S]

wow, £699 is a lot for such small items. Cant you remove them, cover them in a CF wrap and then refit?

[JohnG1]

I've been quoted £500 supply and fit by a main dealer.

I'm sure you could buy some carbon fibre in sheet form and wrap the chrome but it's probably going to look crap!

Ouch!!!

Although they do look good.......

Hi JohnG1,

Thanks,

really ,intresting as they cost more than that from the factory, let alone fitting , which is'nt as easy as you would think.

List price or what a dealer actually pays?

John - thread revival, but here's a picture of the strakes fitted!

Well, you didn't write that but they are lovely. My V12 is mako blue so I think I may knock up a photoshop special mockup to see what they look like 'in-the-flesh'.

You Sir are a man of taste.

Damn!!
I thought I'd got these out of my system!!
