However, using a mac and trying to upload pictures on here is a nightmare (Unless anyone knows an easy way ??)
No problem at all uploading pictures on a Mac here. At what stage are you struggling? Save file to desktop, adjust size to less than 2MB (using "Preview") then upload using the "Upload an image (beta)" link on here. Works fine - example …...
Hi guys,
I've always been into my BMWs and this is my first Aston. Its just had a load of work done to it recently including a full respray in white. Managed to locate some really nice carbon parts in the UK and a set of 2014 Aston Vanquish Wheels to finish her off. What do you guys think?
Are there any good meets local to Milton Keynes coming up soon? Would be nice to meet some members as I'm new to the Aston scene

IMO it would look fantastic if it wasn't for the black bonnet.

Looks fantastic mate. Good to have some variety in Astons. I'm afraid mine if boring grey, feels like it needs to be spiced up I've always been into my BMWs and this is my first Aston.

I think someone forgot to paint your bonnet?
Personally I think it's horrible, and pretty much the opposite of what an Aston should be (classy and understated), but thankfully I don't have to drive it.
You're mellowing George.Personally I think it's horrible, and pretty much the opposite of what an Aston should be (classy and understated), but thankfully I don't have to drive it.
I was looking forward to you posting with much more vitriol, come on matey you can do better than this.
Looks like our friend Mr Gould is taking over your mantle for extreme criticism.
I will not comment adversely other than to say "less is more".
To the OP,welcome to the forum and enjoy your car.

Thanks for some of the nice comments i did think it would be a required taste
I was unsure on painting the bonnet seemed such a shame covering it up but i can always paint it at a later date
You're a good bloke Ben,generous in your acceptance of a little joshing on your choice of mods. I was unsure on painting the bonnet seemed such a shame covering it up but i can always paint it at a later date

I have seen those bonnets and I bet to myself they would look beautiful, but wouldn't put it on an Aston. Now I've seen it on yours and first impression was that you'd effing ruined a nice car.
Then I kept looking, it's fascinating. Still kept looking, and now I want to see it in the flesh. It's got something, I'm glad you've done it. Quite brave.
Astons are not meant to be brash and chavvy, that doesnt mean they cant be unique. So if you do something as individual as this, you need to do it with flair and style. I don't think you've nailed that quite yet.
Might I suggest that you don't stop there, that you make the feature blend. Perhaps you have lost the lines of the car and one suggestion is you wrap the roof in gloss black/or other complimentary dark colour. The carbon starts with the Oya splitter all the way to the diffuser on the back apart from the roof.

Perhaps black the rear panel like the V12Vs aswell to match the theme with the carbon light inserts.
The calipers are a departure from the colour scheme too.
Otherwise, I think it'll be awesome!
