Give me your wheel colour suggestions for a Black D4
I need to get a couple of wheels refurbed, currently have silver wheels on a Santorini black D4. thinking about changing the colour while they are been done and looking for suggestions.
I'm thinking of something like a gunmetal grey - but open to suggestions pictures would also be appreciated thanksD1 200TDI 3 Door (Most expensive Land Rover ever as it got me hooked)

I went for gloss black , but they do take a lot more cleaning to keep them looking decent .

Not a very 'clean' picture, but I went for satin black, as my Sumatra Black Disco quickly changes from a glossy finish at the slightest damp weather, and so all match.
Also Satin Black easier to match up with touch up paint when the kerb jumps out at you.
Car currently having new ARBs fitted so can't get a better picture, but will if you need.

Thanks guys, Rawly like the gloss black against the silver kinda agree with TM the satin black may be easier to maintain against the black bodyworkD1 200TDI 3 Door (Most expensive Land Rover ever as it got me hooked)

Good point about the purple...never noticed that!
Like the idea of gun metal - here's an example of my buddy's FFRR where he got his refurbed but with a subtle introduction of grey rather than the original silver

They are nine inch light fox driving lights. I think they have brought out a new version since I purchased these.

I got them off eBay a couple of years ago, looks like the seller hasn't had anything listed for a while. Believe they came from Hong Kong

Cheers, that was the sort of conclusion I was coming too! It's all from China or HK at some point! 👍
