Beautiful car in a very striking colour combination.
The pearlessence shows particularly well in the pics you have taken and is very attractive.
No doubt a fellow PH'er called George will come along to add his compliments. smile

Thank you all,

Glad to be a part of the AM forum. Yes this color is one of a kind, especially with some carbon fiber.

I've only done some minor mods:
Dark Charcoal Wheels
Carbon fiber lip spoiler
Carbon fiber side strakes
Carbon fiber front grill
Carbon fiber side mirrors
Carbon fiber rear diffuser

Happy driving.....

Nice car, I'm also in Dubai with a V8V but a roadster. It's definitely a nice change from the Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, etc that are surprisingly common!

Anyway, if you have any Dubai specific questions regarding the Aston Martin just let me know and I'll try to help.

All the best, and enjoy!

Nice car as well, defiantly different front a Ferrari, having owned one in the past. To me Aston Martin is about a statement.

Regarding Carbon Fiber, I know a very well known automotive custom shop that only works with high end exotic and luxury vehicles, they specialize is Carbon Fiber and Interiors, they can make and turn anything into high quality CF, as well custom design parts, spoilers etc...

If anyone interested, let me know.

Cheers,

I'd be interested in a CF rear diffuser and front lip.
Is this well known custom shop based in Dubai?

I'll PM you.

Check it out. http://www.spectrumcardesign.com/

They custom mould and fabricated my front lip spoiler and it’s a perfect fit. They had to use the measurement form the original lip for size, then they extended the lip out by aprx 1" and rounded it off on the corners. For the rear, they changed the original diffuser to CF and custom made the shark fins below. Same thing for the side mirrors, they used the original covers and changed them to CF. I also had them change the front grill into CF and it looks great.

I'm not aware of any AM clubs here in Dubai (but I haven't really looked).

What sort of price was the carbon wrap? I was considering some interior mods but didnt want to pay a small fortune for it.

regards,
Andy

Hi,

It’s not a foil wrap, its real Carbon Fiber that can be done on any part on the inside or outside and because they will use the same original parts, example "mirror cover" it will cost you half of what you would normally pay if you order on line or from AM.

I will attach some close-up pics of the Carbon Fiber.
