Hi Legends,

So, I'm missing the plastic trim at the bottom of my front bumper. Got the car like it.. Absolutely silly money from Aston's to replace. Has anyone seen anything or put anything else on their car?
I'm looking at a Maxton Design Gloss Black which is advertised on Ebay.

Bearing in mind, I'm in New Zealand... Suggestions, thoughts welcome.

Cheers,
Regards,

I haven’t got the maxton front but do have the side skirts which I’m very happy with. Sort of underlines the car without changing the curves
I do have a different front splitter but will probably get the maxton so they all match
Can’t see why you’d be unhappy, especially for the modest price

About £160 + vat for the genuine splitter from Aston Martin Bits - doesn’t seem to be horrific value for money

Not bad i know but thats about 400 New Zealand Dollars by the time it gets here..
I can't help but compare the pound, being an ex Essex lad. It's so frustrating lol..

For the extra $200+ I've now ordered the Maxton one.

Thanks lads.
Regards.

Thanks Quad,

I have fitted my Maxton one and the fit is horrendous. I've made it work, but i was disappointed with the fitment.

I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

Cheers,

Hmm
I’ve got one here that I ordered after your thread reminded me.
I have a different one at the moment that came from a smaller supplier making small batches. I’ve never been totally happy so had in my mind to change to a more mass production item. Hence the purchase.
I’ll have a look when I get chance.
