Well after much deliberation I have decided to take the plunge and today Kermit has evolved into Killer Kermit, with the addition of the factory AMR Aerokit.

I've been down and visited the V12VS demo which JCT600 have just applied the AMR Aerokit, AMR Wheels and AMR Performance Pack to more than once in the last couple of weeks and each time I have been blown away with just how good it looked in the flesh, and on Monday this week Kermit was booked in for "the op".

I was almost as nervous going to collect today as I was 10 months ago when he was delivered brand new... "How will Kermit Green actually look on a V12 Vantage" and "Have I made a mistake" where the questions then, today replaced with similar questions about if Aerokit would look as good on Kermit as it did on the demo car.

Well I am pleased to say it looks EPIC! I am really blown away - really suits the bold green and I am quite sure I have made the right choice in keeping the whole sills in full CF to show off their glorious finish. Really finishes off Kermit and looks even more aggressive and sporty.

The team at JCT600 Leeds made the whole collection feel like collecting a new car all over again. On arrival he was parked in the showroom in the prime delivery slot, fully valeted and polished and fully covered with a black sheet ready for an unveiling! A huge thank you to Rochelle (Service Manager) and Danny (Service Tech) at JCT600 Leeds for both doing such a sterling job in making it happen so perfectly.

I would like to say that Kermit is a Happy Bunny too, but right now he looks more like a Very Angry Frog! wink

The CF sills work beautifully on your car in ‘that’ green. Stunning car.

Looks much better on Kermit than the demo.

The green really compliments the aggressive aero

Cheers guys - I keep venturing back into the garage to take another look at him (well and fiddle with the newly patched AMi III - see my other thread).

Congratulations Adam, clap the whole kit really suits the kermit green, a mad car gone insane. biggrin I really look forward to seeing it at some point in the future. Have you noticed any difference in performance or road holding?

Cheers! No noticed performance changes as yet, but I literally picked it up in my lunch hour, drove it home (2 miles) and then walked back into work.

To be honest unless you are on a track I doubt there will be any noticeable difference. I would imagine it should have better road holding at very high speeds, but a lower top speed and maybe worse consumption from the air drag - as if we care about that with a 6ltr V12 tongue out. Anyway I didn't buy it for any of that, was purely an aesthetic choice for me.

I can confirm that the new full CF sills are LOT lighter than the old ones, so even with the addition of the wing, bigger front splitter and dive blades (all of which also weigh almost nothing) I would be surprised if there wasn't a net weight saving, but as I say - that wasn't my key criteria.

Stunning Adam! Love the colour contrast with the green and the CF.

Definitely an aesthetic success. Who cares about fuel consumption :-)

Be careful with that splitter yikes

Do they recalibrate the front parking sensors?!
