The Rolls-Royce Ghost occupies a position inside the Rolls-Royce range that no other model in the catalogue covers: it is the owner-driver saloon that still works as a chauffeured car. The Wraith is a coupé — too personal for chauffeured duty. The Phantom VIII is a 5.76-metre limousine — too ceremonial for owner-driven daily commuting. The Ghost, at 5.55 m in current CoRE-generation long-wheelbase and under 5.4 m in the short-wheelbase, sits precisely on the driving/being-driven boundary. That positioning shapes how the Mansory Ghost programme is specified. Ghost commissions fall into two clean buyer profiles — the owner-driven private-bank / boutique-firm principal who specifies an aggressive front-bumper spec and 23" forged wheels, and the chauffeur-hybrid family saloon owner who specifies a restrained dry-carbon overlay and retains factory 21" wheels for ride quality. The Mansory programme addresses both ends of that split from a single parts catalogue.
The Ghost has run through two platform generations and three production phases since 2010:
Extended Wheelbase (EWB) variant fit: the Ghost has always been offered in short-wheelbase and extended-wheelbase trims. The Mansory bumper, side-skirt, mirror housing and rear-diffuser carbon panels fit both SWB and EWB equally; the EWB's 170 mm additional rear-door length lies between the side-skirt and the rear-wheel-arch and does not intersect any Mansory panel. The EWB commission count has climbed on Ghost CoRE donors because the CoRE EWB is positioned as a chauffeur-hybrid saloon in Asia-Pacific markets where the Mansory commission flow is strong.
Material: dry carbon on the bonnet, boot-lid spoiler, mirror housings and rear-window trim frame; PU-RIM composite with visible carbon weave on the front bumper, side skirts and rear diffuser (full-dry-carbon upgrade available across all line items on commission). Install runs four to five shop days. The Ghost CoRE's Illuminated Fascia (the light-diffused dashboard panel with the constellation lightshow) is not interacted with by the body kit; the kit is strictly an exterior programme.
The Ghost across all three generations runs variants of the BMW N74B66 6.6-litre twin-turbo V12 — Rolls-Royce's house V12 across the Ghost, Wraith and Dawn lines, and a twin to the Phantom's N74B68 6.75-litre variant. Ghost I and Ghost II RR4 produce 563 hp / 780 Nm; the Ghost CoRE produces 592 hp / 900 Nm with a revised intake, revised cooling and the platform-shared all-wheel-drive architecture. The engine ships with the Rolls-Royce "waftability" calibration — peak torque is available from 1,500 rpm, with the full 8-speed ZF transmission calibrated to conceal gear shifts. The Mansory kit is body-only — engine output is preserved. A Mansory-tuned stage 1 for the N74 exists in the workshop catalogue as an optional SKU and adds approximately 70 hp to the Ghost CoRE output, though the take-rate on Ghost is low because the chauffeur-hybrid use pattern does not reward the additional output the way it rewards Wraith or Cullinan commissions.
Factory air suspension (Rolls-Royce's Magic Carpet Ride / Planar suspension on CoRE) is preserved. The Mansory lowering module is available and offsets the factory target ride height without disrupting self-levelling or Planar damping behaviour. Most Ghost commissions do not specify the lowering module — the factory ride height is part of the Ghost's chauffeur-hybrid positioning and lowering the car pushes it toward the Wraith aesthetic.
Ghost wheels split the commission book cleanly. Factory Ghost CoRE ships on 21" wheels standard; 22" is a factory option. Mansory's forged wheel offering covers 22" and 23" on the Ghost 5×112 PCD with the CoRE-specific centre-bore geometry.
Full forged range at Hodoor forged wheels.
Unlike the Wraith coupé and the Cullinan SUV, the Ghost's order book maps precisely onto a specific set of city-state and financial-centre markets rather than a broader national luxury-car pattern. The Mansory Ghost commission book concentrates in five primary cities:
London (owner-driven private banking). Mayfair, Belgravia, Knightsbridge. The City and the Canary Wharf cluster. UK Ghost commissions weight 70/30 toward owner-driven spec — the owner-driver runs the Ghost between St James's private-bank offices, weekend Cotswolds houses and Heathrow private-terminal trips. Commission spec skews restrained: dry-carbon bonnet without the aggressive front bumper, retained factory 21", no lowering module. Right-hand-drive mirror-housing spec.
Zurich / Geneva (Swiss private-bank saloon). Switzerland runs the most restrained Ghost commission spec of any market — Zurich Paradeplatz and Geneva Rue du Rhône private-bank principals specify the dry-carbon bonnet, carbon mirror housings and the boot-lid spoiler, and nothing else. Retained factory paint (often Arctic White or Arabian Blue). Retained factory 21". Zero commissions from Switzerland in 2024–2026 have specified the aggressive front bumper.
Hong Kong (chauffeur-hybrid family saloon). Hong Kong runs Ghost commissions in the opposite direction from Switzerland — Central and the Peak district carry a family-saloon use pattern where the Ghost serves as the chauffeur-hybrid family car (the principal is driven to the office in the morning by the family driver, and the principal drives the Ghost personally on weekends). Hong Kong Ghost commissions skew toward EWB donors on the CoRE generation, specify 22" Mansory forged rather than 23", and often pair with Cullinan Mansory commissions in the same household.
Singapore (the newest-cluster Asia-Pacific Ghost market). Singapore Ghost volume has climbed since 2022 as Singapore family offices have grown. Commission spec is moderate — 22" forged, dry-carbon bonnet, standard front bumper, no lowering module, RHD mirror spec. Singapore Ghost commissions are often the first Rolls-Royce in a household garage rather than a successor commission.
Dubai / DIFC (the aggressive-spec owner-driver cluster). The UAE Ghost order book routes through DIFC-based principals and weights toward the most aggressive commission spec in the Mansory Ghost book: full front bumper, dry-carbon bonnet, 23" forged, Mansory sport exhaust, Mansory lowering module. Approximately 70% of Ghost commissions from the UAE in 2024–2026 have specified the aggressive full-spec tier. Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Bahrain follow the UAE pattern at lower volumes. Saudi / Qatar / Bahrain.
Secondary markets. US commissions cluster in NYC, Greenwich, Miami, Palm Beach and Los Angeles, with spec varying by region (NYC / Greenwich restrained, Miami / LA aggressive). China — the Shanghai / Beijing / Shenzhen cluster — runs Ghost commissions on EWB donors with a chauffeur-hybrid pattern similar to Hong Kong. Russia / CIS orders route through the Tsar programme; CIS Ghost commissions are owner-driven and lean toward aggressive-spec.
The Ghost sits within the Mansory Rolls-Royce stack alongside the Ghost II (the dedicated Ghost II RR4 facelift programme), the Phantom VIII (the ceremonial flagship above the Ghost), the Wraith coupé, the Dawn Soft Kit convertible, the Cullinan SUV, and the BEV Spectre. Ghost commissions are the most common "second Rolls in the household" specification — owners who already run a Cullinan or a Phantom often add a Ghost as the owner-driven personal saloon.
Full Ghost CoRE body set: four to six weeks from the workshop. Dry-carbon bonnet: ships with the kit. Mansory N74 stage-1 tune (optional): two weeks for remap. Lowering module (optional): in stock. 22" or 23" forged wheel set: four weeks. For Ghost I (2010–2014) commissions please specify the generation in the enquiry — Ghost I parts are built on the retained-parts catalogue with longer lead time. Email [email protected] or WhatsApp +44 7488 818747 with your VIN, the generation (Ghost I / Ghost II RR4 / Ghost CoRE), the wheelbase (SWB / EWB), the drive side (LHD / RHD), the spec tier (restrained / middle / aggressive), and the OEM Rolls-Royce paint code.
Does the kit fit both Ghost generations — Ghost I (2010–2014) and Ghost II RR4 (2014–2020) and the Ghost CoRE (2020–present)?
The current SKU on this page is dimensioned to the Ghost CoRE (2020–present). Ghost I and Ghost II RR4 kits ship from the workshop's retained-parts catalogue on commission — specify the model year in your enquiry and the workshop will confirm parts availability for the earlier generation. The Ghost II-specific facelift kit has its own dedicated page.
Does the Extended Wheelbase (EWB) variant take the same Mansory panels?
Yes. The EWB's additional 170 mm of wheelbase sits between the B-pillar and the rear wheel arch — no Mansory panel interacts with that zone. Front bumper, bonnet, side skirts, mirror housings, rear bumper and boot-lid spoiler are identical between SWB and EWB. The EWB-specific additional rear door trim is factory-preserved.
Is the BMW N74 V12 tuneable within the Mansory programme?
Yes. A Mansory stage 1 for the N74B68 / N74B66 adds approximately 70 hp and 100 Nm. Commission take-rate is low on Ghost donors because the Ghost's calibration is tuned toward effortless peak-torque delivery rather than top-end power, but the tune is available on request. The Cullinan programme commissions the tune more frequently.
Does the Mansory kit interact with the CoRE's Planar Suspension or with the rear-wheel-steering?
No. Planar damping runs on the shock-absorber control loop and rear-wheel steering runs off the rear-subframe actuators; both are untouched by an exterior body programme. The Mansory lowering module (optional) interfaces with the air-suspension target-height controller and offsets the ride height without disturbing Planar damping or rear-wheel-steering function.
Can the Ghost kit be paired with a Phantom VIII kit in the same household for a matched paint/weave spec?
Yes, commonly. Households running a Ghost + Phantom VIII pair order both kits on a single commission run with matched Rolls-Royce paint code and matched carbon weave direction across both cars. The Cullinan + Ghost pair is the more common SUV-saloon pairing; Phantom VIII + Ghost is a flagship-pair commission for ceremonial and owner-driven coverage in the same household.
Does the chauffeur-driven use pattern change any commission recommendation?
Yes. For chauffeur-hybrid commissions (chauffeured on weekdays, owner-driven on weekends), the workshop recommends retained factory 21" wheels (ride quality preservation), no lowering module, and the dry-carbon bonnet and boot-lid spoiler only rather than the full aggressive front bumper. This tier corresponds roughly to the Hong Kong / Zurich commission pattern and preserves the rear-passenger ride character that chauffeur-hybrid Ghost owners specify the car for.
