New pics of my V8V

Really great detail shots. I like the uniformity of the lighting and colour tone bw all the shots. It looks like a professional poster. What's your weapon of choice for taking photos? If you have any interest in posting some wallpaper sized images (eg 1900x1200), please accept this as my vote!

Actually, it's the new RSC diffuser that Stuart just offered. I believe I was his first customer. It is very similar to the N420 diffuser, except the carbon weave all goes in one direction instead of meeting in the middle like on the Aston part.
When I installed it, I decided to go for a slightly different look and so I used a fine aluminum mesh instead of the typical, larger black mesh. My reasoning was that the lighter color draws the eye down to make the diffuser more prominent and matches better with the clear taillights. Plus, it set it apart from other cars with the diffuser to make it a bit more unique and personalized.
BTW: Installing the diffuser is not for the faint hearted. You have to remove the rear wheels, rear wheel well liners, taillights, and the entire rear bumper. You also have to drill eight holes in the bumper cover to match up with the holes in the diffuser. I do this kind of stuff all the time on my cars—it's part of the fun of car ownership. However, depending on your skill level, you may want to consider professional installation.

I like the lighter aluminium mesh very much. Clever idea, well done...

Karl-
I just had the AM diffuser installed and watched the body shop take almost two hours installing it! I managed Stuarts 200 cell cats, but no way I was doing the diffuser.
The AM technician immediately looked at the center where the weave changes and commented on how AM told them about their process as if to verify...
Where did you get the mesh from, I do like that look with the clear tails.
