Vantage collection

Anybody use the vantage collection for carbon fiber products?
Are they over priced or worth it?

Nick is a great guy, and their products have an excellent reputation.

Last year I bought a Vantage Collection CF splitter through Stuart (above) in conjunction with some other goodies. Absolutely perfect finish, and perfect fit. V8V. Highly recommend.

Hey Dr. P, I'm getting rid of new OEM carbon fiber pieces that I never installed... other pieces were sold already, but I still have the front spoiler left

Whatever you order:

1.Make sure that you don't pay for "expedited shipping" because they'll ship it elcheapo.

2. Chase them bc they may forget to answer emails or even about your order. This can drag on for weeks after you have paid.

3. Check the quality of the goods carefully. Depending what it is it may have been already bought from a breakers yard, and the piece you receive may actually have originally come from a car a lot older than yours before it was reworked.

4. After all that, when whatever you've ordered is fitted to your car, you'll probably still be glad you bought it as, at the end of the day, the pieces they sell are generally an aesthetic improvement.

I believe the OEM one is a little more subtle. OEM is an actual Aston Martin piece that is usually fitted on N420 Vantages, the same one you'd purchase at the dealer (for about $2500+). Also, from the pics, you can see that the carbon fiber weave detail on the OEM Aston pieces are absolutely stunning.

Just for clarity, the splitter you purchased from me was the RSC Vantage C front splitter (sorry, that is a little confusing, we named our carbon package for that car the 'Vantage C' package and not long after, Nick called his company The Vantage Collection.)

But Vantage Collection's front splitter is also an excellent piece.
