That is a lovely colour! I'd even be tempted to go for the same on that car, although I've always though a V12 in Toro Red would look stunning too ....

Love the colour, but that photo makes it look quite a flat, solid colour. Can you get wraps with depth and fleck to it like Aston's paint?

Don't think so Georgeous, though I'm happy to be corrected smile

Wraps are essentially temporary in nature so this doesn't really cause an issue......and I'm warming to them a lot !!!!

Btw, this is one of Rich's previous threads -

Just buy a DBS in a non boring colour instead of a wrap! smile

The solid colour puts me off them, it's quite obvious it's a wrap when looking up close.

The thing is Georgio....I'd get bored with any colour after a few years, including green, white, red, orange etc, not just black or silver.

Wraps seem to offer a solution in that they give you temporary respite until you are happy to return to the original colour.

Not sure about the potential for damage upon removal though frown

That looks fantastic. George - I don't think you'll get away from the flatness until someone comes up with double layered wraps. Some look more flat than others though and these features aside, the question you have to ask is "does it look good", if the answer is "yes" then job's done afaic.

So folks. Db9 volante. Mines currently tungsten. I'm thinking cobalt blue with clear lenses. What do you think?
I'd love that orange but not sure it'd suit a db9.

yes Stunning colour, much more a burnt orange than the vibrant one above.



I think Cobalt blue would look good Slarti, what colour stitching do you have just out of curiosity? A colour that would match that would be nice. I'm still not convinced that it would look as good as Cobalt though without the sparkly effect.
