I think it looks GREAT
I got a price when i ordered mine of £800 , but they said they wouldnt spray the door handles and the tailgate opener, so i was a bit dubious thinking it would look silly.
I think im gonna go and get a price again as it does look so much better.
Did they spray all your plastic bits , door handles , tailgate opener etc ..sorry cant make out from your picturesG4 Gone ...but not forgotten

From what I can make out I would suggest that the door handles & tailgate opener HAVEN'T been doneSteve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

That looks really nice! How well do they say the paint holds up on plastic parts? i.e. will it scratch easier or anything?I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

Looks the biz BarryG
Sideview - had my plastic front, mirrors and door handles done 2 years ago, no problems at all with scratching, chipping [or even worse] peeling.I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.

I like it 8)
Mine is java black too and i would love to have it too but....
All the matte plastic trim is in places where there is excessive abrasion from roaddirt, or where the usual dents and scaratces come from scrubs, fenceposts or parking damage by other motorists. I would if that happened to me, so i'm happy with the matte ones.
Likewise....It really looks the poodles parts! but since I'll be towing stuff up dirt tracks etc, it would look scabby too quickly for my purposes....

Agree with the "drug dealer" comment tbh. When I see blinged up vehicles I tend to associate them with chavs and the loud "thump" of some really crappy music:(

Shows up the Java real well. Don't know why LR don't have all HSE's with coloured body mouldings to match the cars as standard.
Looks like they did a neat job. You'll have to keep everyone posted on if it deteriorates at all through normal use (whatever 'normal' use is for a D3!)
Certainly gets you noticed. just don't hand out small packets from the back windows to passers by... Bodsys Brake Bible
