No, it's already got some, they just don't happen to be "go faster" ones. hehe

nope...looks great as it is

I think the sills n diffusers, lips etc all look better on a coupe, if you prefer that look

No... It looks awesome.. I put sills on mine.. Already had splitter and diffuser and as nice as it looked I always looked at Vantages without them thinking they seem to look more shapely and why the hell did I add them!

I did the sports pack alloys and N400 sills....however mine is a coupe, but I think both would look good on your car. But be warned, once you start to put nice things on your car, you will want more......and more....... and more biglaugh

I would, yes.
I put N400 sills on my coupe but with that... I'd look at the V12V/V8BS sills and a 6 slat grill. It's already got the best wheels IMO.
Beautiful colour by the way!!

Keep the lines clean and keep the look original, IMHO.

Strange mix of views, but mostly of the "leave it alone" variety. Which is odd, because when someone shows pictures of carbon tat, or awful looking lipstick, or even a whole body wrap in some gopping colour there is a veritable frothing of masturbatory compliments.

But sills? Oh no. Leave it alone, you'll ruin the natural lines. Ho hum.

I know where you're coming from but I judged the sill question in connection with that car.. the colour and wheels to me give it a different character to the blacks and grays and different wheel design. To me its about the combination and balance. I also can't imagine that car going sideways around a track and that's not a criticism.

I'm having a problem here thinking to whom you are referring,I've checked with Mystic Meg and she is seeing a pond.
What is a "masturbatory comment"....
A) is it good fun?
B)is it legal?
C) do you have to be Welsh to do it ?
Going back on topic,I believe that posters are saying that the car looks swell as it is and does not require the addition of sills to make it look sweller,remember "less is more".
That's not to say that the newer Vantage with sills doesn't also look swell.

The difference is we were aasked for an opinion before adding sills. When people post up modifications I don't like, I just don't respond. So you generally get people posting positive replies to carbon 'tat' etc. Those of us that don't like, say nothing because it would just look mean spirited.
