I like how the orange is now just an accent on the mirrors rather than the whole color. Just to knit-pick, I'd suggest making the width of the orange stripe on the mirrors the same width as the orange stripes on the rear of the car. It'd keep the accent consistent around the car. (You've done such an awesome job that all that's left to recommend is from knit-picking lol)

Thanks, that's a good suggestion. Should I go with the thicker striping all around or use thin striping? I have v12 skirts and 20" HREs coming shortly.

I think the thin stripes on the rear are awesome. The orange has enough contrast that the thin line gives a lot of visual impact without taking over. I'd keep the rear as-is and go with thin on the mirrors, too.

+1 for the thin stripes. it's a bright orange so a small amount will still pop.

Great look mods!

You said DNA Engineering did the carbon pieces? I see the problem with the wing lip, were there other issues? They owe me a quote for a diffuser and front splitter on my 13 Vantage. If you had big fitment issues I will pass on them.

It took some grinding from a sander to make things fit better. It's not perfect, but gaps are no more than 2-3mm now. I have yet to install the carbon side strakes, but will take pictures when I do.

Sweet! Thanks for the find. I believe this was Cars and Coffee in Aliso Viejo the weekend we shot the pictures with the other supercars I posted.

Really love the accent stripe on the door mirrors. Subtle, tasteful, and really awesome.
