Cret - I am not sure - The guys at Nitron said something about they had a chance and just about became the AMR suspension of choice but "politics got in the way"... who knows... - but I can confirm AMR uses Bilstein as their "go to" and Koni for a lower tier solution - This is according to TRG, their US supplier -

Montana: your car looks amazing. Very nice stance and wheels!
Cret: The TRG Vantage GT4, which is North America's Aston Martin Racing team, uses Bilstein, and I can confirm what Montana said, they are expensive based on the quote I received from them as well.
I didn't think to inquire at Bamford, but that is a great option, especially since it is nicely priced.
It's too late for me though: I already have a set of kW coilovers waiting to be installed.

I am going to add some spring rate to my solution and also soften up the front slightly to reduce understeer and see how things work (probably 625lb front and 725lb rear) - If I still have issues then I will most likely go the Bilstein route or do a custom set up with Motion Control Suspension (MCS) - This MCS solution could be a HOT set up if I spend some time with them but not sure how much work I want to put into this project...

I have not done anything to the sway bars. You probably have more detail than me on this but aftermarket are rare to none. I have a S model so understand it might have a stiffer sway bars than the standard models - not sure - I was informed that the sway bars on the GT4 cars are the same as mine
I wish there was a reasonably affordable adjustable option with adjustable end links - Stuart at AP found a set that are custom made and very very expensive - so I passed

Bilstein shocks with Eibach springs. I believe the shocks are custom made for AMR, thus the super high price.
