I call it the ZB9

[MarkDixon]

This is a very rough draft, but I think it has to be done.

The front of the Aston Martin DB9 is too sexy and too much like a Z not to do it.

I like the look of the fron of the original 240Z. I also like the look of an air dam. And I like the look of the G-nose.

So why not fabricate a fiberglass DB9 front and put it on a Z.

What do you think?

[MarkDixon]

Here's the Z without the DB9 front.

I will work on some better drawings if everyone likes the idea.

It will probably take more time than I wish to think about to fabricate, but winter is coming and what else is ther to do but make something new for my Zcar.

I like your sketches! The DB9 front end would look unique on the Zcar, but I'm not sure if I'd like it until I see a photoshop of it done,

[MarkDixon]

I'm gonna work on that. This was an easy way to get a rough look at it.

Took me about 3 minutes.

I think you have...

Photoshop trace and a cut and paste.

i was walking along to my car and out of a car wash place reversed a 350z with a db9 style front grill, looked semi decent, would of looked better if the rest of the car was done up with class instead of the way it had been (altessa lights etc)

I think pirosan meant he would like to see me work some photoshop magic with merging a 240z photograph with a DB9 photograph.

I can do this and make it look like the car is one. It will take a little more time.

I think what hls30 meant was that you took this picture (attached) and used photoshop trace to create the sketch versus an original hand drawn sketch.

Ahh yeah I understand. That is the picture I used. And I did use photoshop along with another program to make the effect.

I think it's a cool idea. I will probably spent more time on it.

Thanks for your inputs.

It is a cool idea-probably more fun than I should have relative to the work I have this week!
