A challenge for Nicholas
Improve the Vantage, what a challenge. AM's Gaydon Design Center has been trying to effectively modify the purity of the original Callum/Fisker style for years. With meager success; my opinion.
Stuart, turn Nicholas on to an improvement Vantage owners might appreciate. Revise the combustion air intake from the heavy, duplicated, convoluted design it is to an efficient, over the center of the radiator directly into the throttle body, system. Corvette has had extremely low hoods over the years with this arangement...perhaps some "expensive to tool" hardware can be adapted?
Success would open space for a bunch of aftermarket applications, i.e., brake cooling duct and/or driving light kits and grille alternatives.
