Enhance your Aston Martin DB11 with Carbon Fiber Upper Side Skirts designed to sharpen the side profile, add luxury carbon fiber styling, and visually lower the car. Crafted from lightweight 2×2 twill carbon fiber with a UV-resistant high-gloss finish, these DB11 upper side skirts deliver OEM-grade fitment and a seamless match to factory lines. Ideal for owners looking to complete a full carbon fiber exterior kit, improve side styling, and add subtle aero presence without compromising the elegance of the DB11.
Our Projects
Styling & Presence
Sharpen the DB11’s Side Profile with Carbon Fiber Detailing
The Aston Martin DB11 Carbon Fiber Upper Side Skirt adds a refined yet assertive character to the side of your grand tourer. Running along the upper sill line, this carbon fiber element emphasizes the DB11’s flowing proportions and gives the side profile a more sculpted, tailored appearance.
Unlike lower side skirts that focus on the underside, the upper side skirt visually tightens the body, adding a dynamic shadow line that makes the car appear lower, longer, and more aggressive without disturbing its timeless elegance. The 2×2 twill carbon fiber finish mirrors OEM carbon options and pairs perfectly with other DB11 carbon parts, such as front splitters, mirror caps, and rear diffusers.
Aero & Visual Lowering Effect
Subtle Aero & Visual Lowering for a More Planted Stance
While primarily a styling component, the Carbon Fiber Upper Side Skirt also contributes to subtle aero management and a more planted visual stance. By extending and defining the upper side surface, it helps guide airflow along the flanks of the DB11, complementing the vehicle’s existing aerodynamic design.
From a visual standpoint, adding a strong horizontal carbon line along the side of the car creates the impression of a lower center of gravity and a more performance-oriented stance. Studies in automotive design and consumer perception show that vehicles with pronounced horizontal side elements are often viewed as sportier and more dynamic, even when ride height is unchanged.
Materials & Weight
Lightweight 2×2 Twill Carbon Fiber with UV-Resistant Finish
The Aston Martin DB11 Carbon Fiber Upper Side Skirt is manufactured from aerospace-grade carbon fiber using a 2×2 twill weave, chosen to match OEM Aston Martin carbon components in both appearance and strength. This construction provides high rigidity and crack resistance while keeping additional weight to an absolute minimum.
Compared to painted plastic or fiberglass alternatives, carbon fiber components can be up to 50–60% lighter, which is crucial when adding parts along the body of a performance GT. The UV-resistant high-gloss clear coat protects the carbon from yellowing, fading, and surface dulling caused by sunlight and environmental exposure.
Installation & Compatibility
OEM-Grade Fitment Designed Specifically for the DB11
The Carbon Fiber Upper Side Skirt is precision-engineered exclusively for the Aston Martin DB11, following the factory body contour, door edge, and upper sill geometry. This results in OEM-grade fitment with tight gaps and a clean, factory-like appearance once installed.
Mounting typically uses the original fixing points where possible, combined with high-strength automotive adhesive or clips (depending on your final product design). Professional installers can usually complete installation in 1–2 hours, ensuring the skirts sit flush with the body panels and align perfectly from front to rear.
