Paintied interior and exterior bits

Hi lads

I would not usually start upgrades by adding painted bits to my Disco, but here were are, even before fitting a sump guard, i had the plastic trim, inside and out, repainted to match the Performance BB6 wheels ... Whistle (Grill and logo to follow with Black LR badge from RRS SC, then that will be it)

PS: Sump guard now fitted (black Whistle )



Here is the whole kit taken out of the D, professionaly painted using bumper primer and paint so the whole thing can endure soft scratches and twisting (to put them back on or off again)



Here are the bits installed :

Inside ...
















... and out !

Merci,
about the side trim, it is the photo that does this for some reason, it is perfectly straight.

Indeed, i am bit surprised no one here uses them, they ARE much better that 19" (that imply MTRs) and better than stock 17" and are not that expensive either.

Maybe distribution / promotion is not as good in UK as in continental europe ?

anyway they are good wheels, off set is perfect. i am not so found of the desing, but at least they are not ugly ! Rolling with laughter

I like the coulour though Thumbs Up
