That wrap will absolutely work on your Vantage S. Gold is an iconic color in the Aston palette (think Goldfinger). Congratulations and have fun with it.

I feel you should do it if you like it. Doesn't matter what other people think.

People here are nice. If you posted this on Piston heads you'd get different responses.

Aston paint is so nice. It would be a shame to cover it.

Congrats!

I have to say that looks impressive. The brushed gold look is pretty sick!


Enjoy!

That's a pretty cool finish and looks like the job done is top-notch. I like it. Congrats.

Oh, I also prefer your license plate looks in the center now.

Looking forward to more pictures.

I think gold or copper or brass would look very nice for interior trim
