I obtained this from 6speed Aston Martin Forum, I hope it helps.

"I've done it on a V8V S..same thing, engine front undertray is coming off..take both front wheels off and pull back inner fender linings.

You'll notice, think 3 bolts per side near the ends to the mid-center of the splitter.. there are also 2 nut+bolts near the highest section of the splitter at both sides of the center grill(lonnnng fingers needed here!)..you will also see spring clips along the edges near the center to remove and refit after. The obvious are the lower nuts and screws that will need to come off which are in sight..

None of the bolts are really easy to remove for there all inverted with the heads up(you'll see what I mean), I managed to replace it without removing the air boxs nor bumper..some ppl remove the air boxss..and some go the extra yard as to removing the complete front bumper... if just tackling the splitter and not removing the air boxes nor bumper, parking sensors are not any of your concern ..if you remove the bumper, there is a bulk head connector for the front bumper sensors to disconnect..

You can remove it without a lift..on stands(nice high 6-ton stands would be good), remove the undertray + air boxes and you should be able to tackle this"
