I would choose for the Aston Martin factory to do the job, factory finish and a great story

I would ask Aston Martin Works to collaborate, it would be a guarantee to the job and the value of the car

It’s an Aston Martin, less is more, I’d go easy on the bronze!

This is gonna look great.

Everyone in the comments it's saying go silver, which you could just go buy. The green would be amazing and it would your own which I think is the Key. like Smhe and his GT ;). toned down bronze grille, vents and tips, bronze calipers on black wheels it'd be perfect.

I would probably paint it green and leave everything else. I think that would look phenomenal.

All bronze and get AM Works to do it. Great idea dude!

Is it just me or did that Ford GT look like Shmee’s GT?? 🤔🧐

Pls do the bronze finishes on everything chrome

Personally, I think the bronze side strakes would look amazing, but I think the bonnet vents would look better in gloss black

I’d test the extent to which any bronze is used on a configurator first, if you can set one up. Not sure doing the wheels is a good idea 👍🏻

Cannot wait for the 2023 DBS

Ask Aston special works to do it and have the lineage. But I would say go steady on the bronze, sometimes less is more just have it in the right areas and subtle. But it depends on if your holding onto it for long, either way enjoy.😀

That DBS in Lennox green…SPECTACULAR. Can’t wait to see that process evolve. Love the idea of using the bronze. I think I’d just accent them wheels it. And the vents, but keep it a little subtle. Make it a detail that really pops when you’re standing next to it. Best of luck with it!

Go for itttt!!!!! That paint on dbs😍 Please take us along with the journey

First off, all those who suggest using the Works at Newport Pagnell - bang on. Second - The green is OK but when the car was new they also offered an Infra Red colour. That looks awesome. If you are going down your green/bronze route, think about the dark tan interior leather and detailing in that one off special you drove - the Q branch at the Works will make your dream come true. Finally, the later DBS cars had a 5 x 2 spoke diamond cut wheel that would work well. But please don’t end up with something tacky.

The 12C is by far my favorite McLaren, but the good old Aston Martins and their sound ... eargasm every time

Go for the green! As for the wheels, leave them as they are and see the result. Can always spray them gold later

excited to see what it turns out!!!! Can’t wait

WOW!!! Can't wait for the future content gents

The DB11 in Green with the Bronze wheels & mesh etc In manual wow 😮

Love that DBX spec. Wanted to get my Botanical Green Jaguar XKR done with the bronze accents as a homage to your spec but struggled to get someone to do it. Ended up getting the wheels done in what is described as gloss metallic black but is more like a dark gloss Anthracite with a bronze flake. Nice.

That green would be amazing to see. Keep up the good work.

I really enjoy the diversity of the settings on this channel James. You never know where you’re going to be or what you’re up to. Cracking contender mate.

I would make the wheels green too bronze calipers, or green with a bronze diamond cut. Black and silver wheels are so standard. All the rest of the parts you already figured out... lots of joy with this perfect project car. Revamp the engine too while you're at it...

I am just a working man who would never be Able to Afford Aston Martin but I would love to see you paint the dbs in the green and with the brass Pieces I think it would look out of this world go for it sir 👍

That would just look frikkin awesome James and a one off .....oh and manual

Do it all. Going to look epic with all those details. Cheers!

Not sure I'd go with the bronze personally, but the green looks lovely. I would probably change the wheels to the updated versions in a gloss gunmetal which would give a real richness to the green. I'd probably go for an anthracite on the chrome parts - I have the platinum accent pack on my Vantage and it looks really good.

Green (darker shades like forest or BRG vs kelly or lime) and antiqued bronze look fantastic together.

Definitely go for green, James! Might go for green calipers too, if you’re aiming for bronze wheels. If bronze wheels are too much, I bet slightly darker silver/gray wheels with bronze calipers will look phenomenal. Can’t wait to see the result!

Go for it James, but keep it period-correct. In that case, please, please leave the accessories in the original silver/chrome finish and restore the grill to its original finish as well. A gorgeous period-correct blue-green AM Grand Tourer. Silver goes super well with green anyway

Definitely go ahead 💪🏻 exciting project

100% go green and do the full proper job of it. Engine out, glass out, interior out. Full paint job. Full redo of all metal trim to go bronze. New interior in the same colour as the DBX interior. It will cost as much as a new car but it will be a 1 of 1 that you can give to your kids someday!!!

I would go more subtle with the Aston. Green body and gray/silver accents, like the wheels on the scuderia.

I was a little surprised by the color of that Ford GT...that's all I have to say about that...The Lenox Green on the DBS will be bee yoo tee full....definitely render it before you go all in...and the 599's are epic...it looks like the Aperta was sitting much higher in this video...awesome video...good luck with all your plans!

Personally I'd go Quantum Silver or Casino royale and have Aston Martin Works replicate the interior from Casino Royale. But that's just my fantasy as I'll never be able to own a DBS so just ignore me

There is a company in The Netherlands that is specialised in this kind of respray request. They do all kinds of jobs even for Disney. They have paints that can transform plastic parts into metal looking which is probably what you want with the chrome parts. Maybe you know them from Novitec because they install a lot of kits for them that go to London.

Don’t spray the Vanquish. Once dissambled, you fitment and buildquality will never be the same as off the Factory. Vanquish shape is timeless, so is the black over silver combination. Just use and preserve this beauty. Sometimes less is more.

You have to do it. Green and bronze AM would be perfection.

Well dear JWW, I'm not sure if your DBS is a carbon black edition, but if it is, with all the respect don't even think about this "green idea". Keep the carbon black edition as it is - super rare - and just buy another dbs of any color, and yes just change it! 💯. Even cheaper to go with an automatic and you'll have both wonderful DBS cars for diferente days and driving experiences. It's a completely inexpensive project compared with buying a brand new vantage and you'll be proud of owning a carbon black edition.

Tried getting the colour as close as possible on Horizon 4, put it on the DBS and it looks amazing. can't wait to see it done but i honestly don't think the engine needs to be removed.

Love the green on the DBX, however, for the sake of variety, I thought the Valkyrie test car, when you were at the track, and the samples of red Valkyrie tech paint when you did the customer specification video was absolutely stunning. The red and green side by side with the matching accent bronze would be different class but keep the individual statement of each platform. Whatever you decide you should definitely see if you could get a promo deal on some PPF! 😂

Wow, the DBS in that green would look amazing. I have a suggestion that not many people are saying. On astons, sometimes less is more. If I was to spec it I would put the dbs carbon edition diamond cut wheels on the car. it would just look stunning!

Awsome jww. Part green and bronze wheel the best spec on a British car

Skilled. Talented. Enthusiastic. Great film.

You should look into absolute motors in the netherlands. They can do anything

What a fantastic idea James, I’d say definitely get Aston Martin involved - I’m sure there are specialist out there such as Chartwells but you can’t be factory work, and probably the only chance you’d have to get the badge I really hope this happens would make awesome content for the channel and perhaps highlight what Aston Martin can do for treasured vehicles

If you’re interested i could make a photoshop render of the DBS with the different options in bronze to see what you like.

Agree on the MP4-12C. Still one of the most underrated super cars ever

The colour on the 12C is absolutely on FIRE....

You know what you be awesome. the Green front fading to the original black

Next step : LED headlamps with the modules of the recent Astons and rear with a clean and thin light guide. A bit « restomod-ish », but this would make it a proper timeless piece of design!

Not sure about the bronze... but big yes on british racing green... the only thing your missing is the clear interior.

Yes. Let us know the cost of it - could do something similar with my V12 Vantage!

The DBS would look unreal in the green but i wouldnt go crazy with the bronze touches personally. I'd like for like copy the colour coding from the DBX onto the DBS, grilles and hardware in black with bronze accents and touches, even the badges if Aston will let you. How awesome would it be if Aston got involved and did this!?!?

i love how James acts like it's a painful surprise when his tech tells him "we're beyond that".. clutch piece of acting there. ;-D

Back in the '90's, I had this idea of opening a boutique that used early production software the pre-dated Photoshop to help car owners pick colors and accessories for their cars. I suppose I should be thankful I didn't invest the money into a business that would become obsolete in just a few years. However, it certainly would have helped you with this project.

DBS will look totally better in that green!;)

How extraordinary. I have just decided to respray my manual DBS green. Probably going for Almond Green. Clearly the F1 influence is working in the background…

DO IT!! It would look awesome.

Yes go green. Black interior with bronze stitching and accents. But for the wheels I wanna give you a challenge mate. Let's see if you can get a whole new wheel style developed specifically to show off a bronze finish. I know I'm practically trying to flip the Chanel Cs here but hey, you can always get wheels from another model as well. These wheels look best in silver...and only silver...that's why my suggestion

A Valkyrie Lennox Green DBS!! that would look mega!! there are way too many Black cars out there, and a pitiful few cars in Green, and that particular shade would look fantastic on an Aston,please dont lose those particular wheels, i think they look timelessly classic and would look great in a contrast finish, Gun Metal/Graphite Grey maybe? the bronze could look like overkill?

If you could leave the black leather on the interior and just add a green contrast stitch to match the exterior paint, that might be cool.

Id keep it classy, exterior and engine bay painted in that amazing color with walnut tan interior.

The green would be amazing, stunning car, definitely worth the effort. Quick question is that a new watch??

The green on the dbs is perfect but keep al the chrome chrome please

Got to go with chartwells!

Good man James!!

why are your latest uploads keep getting deleted

The Black GTO for me thank you. What a machine.

body in green, wheels grill and trim in that dull grey from the dbx, brake calipers in bronze and perhaps the logo in bronze like your dbx. Done

Love the paint but I think it would look good with all the stock trim

I love the DBS so much. One of the best looking cars ever, there's simply not a bad angle. Whatever colour it goes it will still look good. The 12C as well. That car has aged and continues to age so well. I think it looks great and so much better than the 650S. With that unique early McLaren front end style it will always be slightly different to all other McLaren's that share a similar front end look. I personally think they'll be very sought after and valuable soon (if not already).

Would love to see the green paint on the DBS, the bronze however...Would be too much in my opinion.

James, you may need to send a couple tins of this green to @tavarish. 👍🏾

All chrome / bright work bronze. Calipers bronze. Wheels diamond cut style black with the bronze front edge etc. Would be ace.

500 miles on that 599 GTO and so many imperfections in the paint? Jeez, that garage life is tough!

haha! :D i get EXITED!

noice collection !! so is that your collection ? or someone elses collection !! that would be the dream collection for me !! all those cars in the same garage space !!

I like the idea of changing the colour to the DBX's green. The then challenge is getting Aston's permission to put the same bronze badge on it... Have fun James

you might be able to pull it off, I don't think that Aston Martin would give just anyone the color formula to just anyone but you have the right connection

I wish Aston would do the work. That would be a fantastic story. Please Aston, let him do it.

These ideas are the stuff of dreams! 👏😀👍

Do it, James!

Do mechanical changes over aesthetics, make it a beast, approach Cosworth and get them to take out the cylinder liners as they did with that engine to begin to create a DBS esque One 77 drivetrain with a manual gearbox...you will never use 1st again and will need a new clutch alternate years... but please do something that petrol heads are interested in not vanity changes

Im old school and love it in black

I am excited to see this. Got for it.

Which black is on the DBS now? My Vantage is Onyx Black (silver metallic flake) under the Inozetek vinyl, but I'm not sure that's what is on the DBS.

I love the intro music

I agree with bronze finishes and Lennox green but struggle to find the best wheel combo with that Matt silver finish or black finish or black on bronze diamond cut finish it could look too busy it has to be subtle and simple but yet great combination of bronze and green not too much of bronze but enough of it what do you guys think

That will become the best looking car of all time. Go all bronze James! Amazing

Black or dark satin wheels with the bronze calipers

Brilliant!

Sweet talk Aston into giving you a matching bonnet badge......!

What nice color.

Paint it In the green it will look 👀 awesome 👏🏼

Can't help feeling that many KZfaqrs are finding it harder to create original material so have to invent strange content. Not often, though, does self indulgence reach such a level.

Green 100%! But no bronze wheels. More bronze details, and bronze calipers, but black wheels or keep it classy with silver wheels and silver window / roof line.

James, What happened to your Hybrid Bentley Benteyga video ?
