the chrome does not look good at all. especially the wheels. some nice dark graphites would do well

I agree with you all as well as far as the wheels and the extra added chrome but unfortunately, the choice was not really up to us. This specific customer ABSOLUTELY loved these wheels and asked for the chrome inserts. We made other suggestions but what the customer wants, the customer gets and the customer is always right.

I personally would have gone with COR wheels or even HREs and left everything else stock with the exception of the Mansory exhuast which sounds amazing and the custom lower grill which is reallt quite beautiful....

I just posted some exhaust vids on YOUTUBE of "before" and "after" with Mansory. It obviously sounds better in person but atleast it gives you an idea. The exhaust upgrade on a DB9 makes a huge difference. ASTON MARTINS ARE AMAZING CARS!

I think the term "hideous" was a bit harsh, don't you think? LOL

Its funny.. I actually spoke to the woman who owns the car a few days ago and I told her how much the car would look better with other wheels... and she was leaning towards getting them changed and finally she said, "...I'm thinking about selling the car in a few months anyways so I guess lets just leave them how they are.."

I tried. :-)

Not feeling the color of the car at all.
I've seen those Zone wheels many times in size 20 and thought they looked hot. What size are these? They look terrible. The fat spokes need to be longer to be symmetrical. Never thought I'd see a high end chrome wheel I didn't like. Proof again that size does matter!
