Hi All
I have just bought my first Aston! Loving it.

I am considering a front splitter and was wandering what the options are?
any photos of the various designs would be appreciated to help decide on the best look.
Thanks

Congratulations on the purchase.

Before considering splitters there is some housekeeping to be done. Pictures please!

IMO there is no point putting a splitter on unless you put the sills on, too.

Wow stunning colour and spec, and far less than I paid for my slightly older example! I love the Grigio exterior, but have only seen it with Caspian blue interior - which is too much blue for my personal tastes - odd as I like blue. I think you have a cracker there!

Nice car :-) prodrive upgrade sounds cool.

Would love to know options for the spliter too, already damaged mine and only had the car a couple of months. :-(

This seems a good deal.....

And I'm sure you could find a willing buyer for the side strakes if you didn't want to fit them... wink
