Ouch, 800£ that hurts!!
I must admit I've been eyeing them out Yoo but I figure the only people who would even notice the difference is those facelifting their d4.
Are you looking for power folding ones? It bugs me that mine don't fold like my Freelander 2 did. If you find a source can you let me know?
While on the topic, I read through some of your previous posts Dave, I'm hearing some cnflicting into on retrofitting 2015 lights with DRL to a 2011 d4. I see you changed your bumper, but did you have too?? It looks like that might have been unnecessary.
Did you find a reasonable price for the lights and grill?

Thanks Dave
Etuna (another member) recently did it but I didn't see any mention of the 20mm gap hence why I thought it might not have been necessary, but thats too big a gap for me!
Unfortunately that makes the cost for the facelift go up significantly..

Oh, I was picturing a 20 mm gap along the whole bumper but that's just on the end of each side of grill.
It's hard to tell exactly what it would look like in person but I agree on a black car it's probably negligible, sadly I have Fuji white!

Inserts
I am going to fit the B4 lights onto my D3 along with the LR bodykit I have had in the garage since they were discontinued. I am having some inserts designed which will be printed in ABS to fit into the gap that can be painted body colour. They will be mounted to the bumper and secured, but will just add the final touch. It would be possible to modify the design for the smaller gap on a D4 for the Model Year 14 D4 generation bumper.
Fortunately I sell very high quality 3D printers so have access to something at work that can print parts to the same quality as injection moulding, and the part is ideally suited to the machine as around 20 can be built together in a few minutes.
Once the file is designed, I will happily share it if anyone wants a copy of the STL or Soldiworks file and if there are spares I will offer them on here for people subject to a site donation. will be around a month before they are printed.Must stop buying shiny toys....
