Post Aston Martin Infiniti G35...

From Leftlanenews...

Japanese car customizer DAMD has put together a kit for the Infiniti G35 to give it an Aston Martin-inspired grille and front fascia. It's not the first time we've seen a Japanese car transformed into an Aston. Back in July, an Australian company rebodied a Mazda MX-5 Miata to look like a vehicle from the British exotic carmaker.

DAMD's kits are less aggressive — they only provide a new grille, leaving most of the car (including headlights and taillights) untouched. Packages are available for the G35 Coupe (Skyline in Japan), Nissan 350Z, and Mazda MX-5.

I actually like it. Minus the emblem. I think the grille and bumper looks pretty cool.

The MX-5 works much better with this style.

For some reason, that first pic resembles a Mini more-so than an Aston or even a G35 trying to resemble an Aston.

I think the company name fits very well with their kits in the following clause.

"DAMD, the kits are so f-king ugly!!!"

the MX-5 and 350Z with the "kits" don't look half-bad. The philosphy behind them is stupid, but they don't look half bad. I wouldn't mind either of those cars with the kit, and without the aston badges. I'm more than comfortable with the idea of people knowing that I drive a 350ZR and MX-5 (both outstanding cars ) instead of a fake, wannabe Aston.

THis is one of the few cases where I'd encourage someone to sue - Aston should sue the pants of "DAMD" and prevent them from using the badges.

It looks good on the MX-5, and to an extent on the Z too. But not on the G35.

that is so wrong. and i agree that the g35 front looks more like a Mini Cooper.

the 350Z looks like someone took a tow truck, hooked the Z on from its front bumper and just dragged it along for a long trip. that front looks too damn weird and stretched out.
