Wide body or fender flares?

I love the look of the vantage, however I would love it even more had it had a wider body stance. Does any one know where I can get or who makes any wide body options for the vantage?

The black one (first and last pics) was a development mule.
The white one looks like a GT3 but with a V12V hood...? Not sure what it is exactly, though.
Maybe try sourcing the GT3 widebody from AMR (Stuart can facilitate). Just be prepared to shell out some serious cash lol.

I saw a car exactly the same as the white car pictured here at David Appleby engineering. It was a clients V12V that they had modified.

Awesome.

I really like the black one and I'll look into that one more as to what they were developing. As for the white one, it's rather different from the GT3 model, the front and rear bumpers are quite different.
Thanks a lot! I will get in touch with Stuart regarding the AMR kit.

You could achieve a much more aggressive look without the wide arches by lowering and getting the right stance with wheels.

You could also find a nice wing like the one pictured on the white car. I saw one on a car at a show, it looked to be a BMW motorsport wing but on a V8V N24 and actually looked great.
