Jesus, Aston Martins really take my breath away. The body kit does nothing for the car; doesn't make it look BAD, but doesn't make it look better either. The wheels, on the other hand, are gorgeous. That Vanquish... *drool*

thats one brave designer to make a body kit for Aston Martins... i like the wheels but the bodykit adds too many lines to an already perfect design.

That body kit is hideous. Looks totally tacked on - look at that side molding. Ugh.

Wheels look nice, although a bit too big (too little tire) for me.

Car is stunning.

Very subtle body kits. It keeps the lines of those Astons gorgeous without being too lavish.

I'll take all of them, please...

Not feeling the bodykit at all.

It's like eating a nice steak with ketchup.

I agree with you dog certain things you don't touch and putting a kit on this car messes it up.

The front and back panel looks good, but the side one is a little too much.

Even in Cali ? I'm surprised, even I have seen the Vanquish a couple times, a gray one & a light blue metallic one.
