Re: Chrome Aston Martin DBS Volante

WOW I wasn't ready for this! I mean it was a bit shocking to see the chrome finish, which was incredible! Top notch work! Hi Chris did you use any varnish to seal the chrome finish? I heard comments about the powder that it counldn't be touched after applied, was it true?

Re: Chrome Aston Martin DBS Volante

I'm not that big a fan of the DBS but something about this build makes me happy.

Since I just installed the caps on my two DBS's that I'm working on, I noticed that your engine is lacking the oil cap. It's missing in the photos.

Re: Chrome Aston Martin DBS Volante

Woah! Woahhh!!! I love it! Great work making it and just a gorgeous finish. We can always count on you for something unconventional and really clever - this model and the flush trimmed screens are those! I love the chrome finish... beautiful, but now we have to call you SheikontheWall!

That's shiny Chris. Is the owner from Dubai? Just kidding.
