Which livery for my DB12 S?
Discussion
I think you need to choose yourself, because we are going to select our own favourite specification.
If you really do want to know my choice, the theme might be considered boring. Traditional and understated.
No stripes, no lipstick.
Chrome grille, body colour mirror caps, silver wheels, silver calipers and rear script delete.
What are the two black dots beneath the rear number plate location?
Presumably cameras, otherwise if parking sensors they would be body colour.

Will play safe with the livery, as I plan to wrap it to have an option to get rid of it, when I don't like it anymore or when the car is better to sell in a more conservative colour scheme.
Also, I don't want to pay a fortune for getting it done by Q.
The 2 black dots should be sensors.
The rear diffuser on the DB12 S comes in black as standard, so they're painted in black. Not possible to cover them with Carbon.
I would get it in plain silver.
You can add any of those treatments by going to a high end PPF shop. The benefit here is that you get to enjoy whichever look takes your fancy, switch it around when you want a change and then come resale you will have a spec that is not polarising at all.

As you asked , none of them.
I much preferred your original spec ie the plain paint.
Your spec included the subtle pinstripe round the bottom edge and the mirrors were a personal touch - neither will particularly limit your buying audience.
That said I’ve never specced a brand new car for the next buyer so go with what you want.
Let’s be honest it’s going to depreciate whatever you do !

As you asked....
Any of the above look as though you're trying to make a 2+2 GT look like a GT3 racing car (and yes, I know the DB9 went racing - but it didn't take long before the Vantage became the weapon of choice).
To my eyes you risk making the DB12 look like a fat man in lycra on a bicycle of a weekend imagining he's Tadej Pogačar. But, as ever, it's your car.
