Cheers Dave!
The rear handle is being wrapped purple as well same as the rest but got to wait on the paint properly curing for a few weeks first so will pop back to have that done.

Sorry to be negative and this is only my opinion but the purple tailgate / back end just doesn't work for me, I think it makes the whole job look incomplete, almost like you ran out of money.
Rest of it looks really good but is let down by the back IMHO. Mods:
Front Fogs + Halos
FBH Remote Control
The 1st Ever RRS Modded Grill
Garmin Nuvi + D4 Surround + Reversing Camera.
D4 Steering Wheel.
Rear Boot Spoiler.
Twin Brake Lights.
Wing Mirror Indicator Repeaters.
Long Roof Rails

No problem Narpy, everyone entitled to an opinion!
The purple rear makes more sense when you see what the vehicle is a support for:

The discovery is a support vehicle for my coach company so the purple rear all ties in when with the fleet!

Rough cost is:
Wrap including full strip down, door shuts etc and protection detail £850
Body work £300
D4 lights £275
Modified Grill by Beanie £125
LED Recovery Roof Bar £450
Wheel Refurb £200
LED's £50
Total £2250
That's with doing the De-tango myself and also the detailing company kindly throwing in FOC the calliper and hub refurb, interior and engine detail.
I know it sounds a lot but if you tot up what we spend on our cars and the amount thats actually been done I think its quite good value!
