mmm, agreed, looks a little too 'bling' i think - a couple of drug dealers or maybe even a footballer in the fron wouldn't go amiss!!

Woha... Imagine the usefulness of having the full sat nav and 4 x 4 info for the same price over having your car with painted plastic bits that WILL peal or look bad if caught by anything remotely sharp... like TFC's wit for example

I have to agree, I imagine in Java it looks fine however in the lighter collours it just looks too much of a an expanse of a solid colour, I can only imagine the trauma it would cause when taking it off into the wilderness..........

Colour Coding
I've had my black D3 done and with the A Bar and auxiliary lights on to break up the front I think it looks O.K.. I had to have the front bumper replaced due to an impact with a brace of pheasants. I thought that they'd only pushed the foglamp in but it turns out the plastic the foglamp mounts on is moulded into the whole bumper. Anyway LR paint the centre section of the bumper so while the bodyshop guys had paint mixed I got it done. £400 cash on top of the insurance claim.2011 D4 Landmark, Mini Cooper SD Clubman, Range Rover Vogue SE
