The ruined Vantage's thread...
To those with a strong stomach....Case Number 1:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FULL-MANSORY-PACKAGE-LOADED-MUST-SEE-/220911761200?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item336f5df730 They advertise 'full Mansory package!!!' in the item title as though it's a selling point. The side sills are particularly horrific.
Case Number 2:http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Aston%20M...1115101047209/ Have a look at the 22-inch rims. Now with your approximately 400 pounds of unsprung weight and half an inch of suspension travel, you can look really 'fly' crusing down the street.Also, the awesome ICE install in the trunk that's reduced trunk space to being insufficient to holding a kleenex and also the install looks like it may have cut into the floor of the trunk. That'll be awesome for resale value!

The 2nd car with the 22 inch rims looks like a caricature on profile. One of the worst I've seen (if not the worst). How anybody could drive this down the road w/o a bag over their head is beyond me.

I actually wonder if the 22's have screwed up the dampers....

I cant find one item on either of those cars that I prefer to the factory options. I have an 2009 Vantage Roadster and do admire most of the components on the vantage s and v12, but the aftermarket just looks desperate.
The 22 inch wheels lift the car a few inches, raising the center of gravity quite a bit. I can only imagine how poorly that car drives.
It is fun to see what people think looks good.
Thanks for the post.
