Can the Dragonborn who has already taken his Draconic Aspect (Breath Weapon) select the Dragon Wings Feat at 1st level?

Thanks for the help, I wasn't sure if the Dragonborn were considered for the prerequisites or not.

No. Dragon Wings requires the Dragon type, which the Dragonblood subtype does not qualify for. It is easy to confuse this, but reread the rules on the subtype very closely. The only creatures that qualify for Dragon Wings are Half-Dragons, and Kobolds with the Dragonwrought feat. The only way to have both is to become a Dragonborn while being a Dragonwrought Kobold.

Someone had sent me a message stating that the Dragonborn were listed as Humanoid (Dragonblood) and met the requirments to have the wings. Is this false?

by dragonborn i assume you mean the one in "races of the dragon"

as for the 1st lvl only id like to quote a sidebar ("the mechanics of rebirth"), page 10:

special: Ordinarily, only a 1st-level character can select certain feats requiring the dragonblood subtype (see chapter 6). However, upon becoming a dragonborn, you can select to replace one (and only one) of your existing feats with one of these feats. The feat to be replaced cannot be a prerequisite for any prestige class, ability, or other feat
