I'm after some - black or silver with red 'LAND ROVER' lettering - or would that be in bad taste? Just though it would look smart against a black car? 2016MY Discovery HSE - Black

Why don't you remove your current vent and prime, then spray black ? What's the worst that can happen?

Dannyson uve sort of got the same idea as me mines Fuji white so wanted gloss black with the landrover lettering Infilled in White
Thoughts on this guys will it look too tacky?
As for spraying my own I wanted to keep the standard parts standard so I can always take mines off put it back to standard and chop it in if I wanted to upgrade?! But I was goin to do the door handle covers vents and grille in gloss black
Again thoughts??
Answers much appreciated God created heavy armour on 06 sept 1916, on the 7th the devil stood to attention!

It's a personal thing, but you asked for opinions. Mine is that when it comes to any lettering "less is more". I don't see the need to highlight the Land Rover lettering on the side vents, or anywhere else for that matter. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
2010 D4 HSE (A bit bling)-GONE
2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE

How are they removed? - is it just a yank (and bust off all the clips) or is there a knack? 2016MY Discovery HSE - Black

Got a D4 grille and two side vents in gloss black. Might be tempted to sell.
