You should consider getting your window tinted and maybe get your calipers powder coated in a brighter color( Orange, Red or Lime perhaps)

The windows are tinted 35% maximum allowed in Ontario Canada where I live. I was thinking of powder coating the calipers, but the original car color is British racing green so I don't want to mess up my resale value when I eventually change cars. 😊

Oh I see..
Make sense why you wrapped the car if British Green was the color lol

Are the door edges still in the original paint color?

Looks to be a quality install.

Stunning. I'm an "oldie" too, but this is a stunning car and an amazing photoshoot. Nice work. Thanks for posting!

@Bruce
I just found out that Aston Martin likes the 'line black/red' design , they use it for the DBS Super Leggera...
So now you are more orignal then them..

Seriously, that car in that colour is true hard-on material. But I think I got the idea from it to start with.

I was going to say, I thought you got the idea from that car and then executed it masterfully on yours.

I need to take a cold shower - that was just the db11 I think but very beautiful. The superleggara ratchets it up another notch. I've only seen the superleggara in white, it actually looks oddly proportioned (big mouth, flat head, sexy ****) but amazing at the same time.

Yes, yes, I havent forgotten your design work, bigfella! If you come to the gold coast, Oz, I'll buy you a beer.

When I was a student [ mining engineer, university of Delft ], my aim was to go to Oz. By the time I could, I send letters to apply. I got some answers, mostly preprinted rejections.

One person made the effort to write a short note : " ..Come here and show your face, we are flooded bij Azians applying, nobody answers, we do hire..", along these lines.

Many of my mates got a job, but for health reasons I couldn't go then. I started with a research project [ modelling the jigbed processs with synthetic materials to be able to make a truely abstract model].
This stranded in perpetous removals inside the buildings driven by re-organisations : I couldn't repeat measurements as the whole setup was in a different place. Eventually I quit and started with the European Patent Office.

Changes of me ever coming to Oz are near zero I'am afraid.

But thanks for the invite !

But his was a 'dip' as opposed to a wrap.

Just my humble opinion, but the front grill on that Aston in post #72 is about the only thing I've ever seen that could make a Lexus grill look good. Aston has ruined the front end of their cars with the wide mouth bass grills. Horrible!
