Looking at the front I am reminded of the phrase “You can put lipstick on a pig but it will still be a pig” ( Smile)

I like the 600HP, and the body color front & rear pieces are nice.. They did put some time into the venting and lower splitter shape up front. The white looks better all monochromatic. I have seen an all black Vantage which also helped me with the overall look.
I am however agreeing with your quote above.... I can imagine if I put my foot down in one a lot of sins could be forgiven.

And lastly.. I will refrain in the future from bashing the new vantage styling on the forum as I realize we likely have new members coming on board who purchased them. And I'll try to be nice.(er).

I don't think there's any help for the front of this car, without a redesign.

Probably at a hefty $$$, I'm curious if they sell that brace on it's own.
