Aston Martin’s gorgeous Vantage V8 is probably the last car in need of any modifications but German tuner Mansory has developed a range of carbon-fiber accessories and performance upgrades designed specifically for the svelte coupe. Having already established itself as a specialist in the modification of high-end British cars with previous projects such as the Rolls Royce Phantom Conquistador and Le MANSory Conti GTC, Mansory was now primed to release a new package for one the UK’s favorites.

For the exterior Mansory have added a carbon front spoiler, a rear apron with integrated diffuser and stacked exhaust pipes, full side skirts, a boot lid spoiler and a new grille. Other features include a carbon engine cover, a vented bonnet, carbon attachments for the side mirrors and taillights and a three-piece carbon sway bar.

Step inside and you’ll be treated to a new leather and Alcantara sports steering wheel, aluminum pedals, Mansory floor mats and custom door sills.

The car’s V8 engine has been left largely untouched but the exhaust system has been upgraded with a new sports muffler. The suspension has been improved with new performance springs and the standard brakes have been replaced with Brembo designed six-piston calipers up front and four-piston units in the back biting perforated and ventilated discs. These reside within 20in forged alloy wheels powder coated in black and shod with 295mm tires up back and 255mm tires in the front.
