New to this scene with a purchase of a beautifully loved DB9 Volante
Question really like the rear under valence of the S so my question is has anyone performed this swap or add on ?
Also would the “S” lowered suspension be compatible ?
Smiles per mile 😊

The rear valance requires the rear bumper also that fits, but does not align with the rear wings that require flaring to match the bumper width ideally. The front top edge of the DBS bumper is also slightly short and does not align with the sweep of the arch, so needs extending and shaping to suit.



















Yes, the S suspension will fit.......at a cost. You can install lower springs, uprated to deal with the soggy Volante suspension and install the DBS front and rear anti-roll bars, the DB9 has all the same mounting points and as standard, does not have a rear roll bar AT ALL.

Hi seems I have sport springs already so I’m Uber happy
Good work there on the rear bumper
I’d love to remould that so they can be manufactured, that’s what I do 😉

I love the look of the S as well, but do you worry about devaluing the car when doing these extensive mods?
Between loss of value and cost of doing it(assuming your paying to get done), would it cost less to just upgrade to a DBS? Or is this just done on a Volante because there isn't a DBS volante-sorry i don't know if that's the case.
