New to m4 D4 HSE , Aberdeenshire
It occurred to me tonight id never actually started a thread of my own and i was replying to the welcome thread so here goes, I picked this one up in Nov 2020 so still early days.
I've always liked a Land Rover, a few mates have various different models and really like them.
I know some of them have their problems so fingers crossed I picked a good one.
So as I got it
Just the next day after collection i had a Powerful grill and lettering, all the green & gold badges were swapped for Black & silver too and i also had some new steps to fit, ( although i wish id bought rock sliders now ), then come the black Valeo taillights and black door handles, also fitted a set of Duratracs, had a gearbox flush and 4 wheel alignment.
I gave the brakes a wee tidy up too.

fitted some wee bits like LED reg plate lights etc, Didn't like the wood interior one bit so ended up spraying the wood trim, that meant i could live with it until i sourced all the bits of piano black trim i required.
so how it stood in wood
then painted
Which now brings me to here, with the piano black trims fitted, this has taken me about 4 months to source but I'm really pleased with the finished results, so door cards, and centre console trims done, all picked up as and when i found them
I think for now that's me up to date.
more too follow as it gets done
Apologies for the long post, just trying to add it all as it had been done

No spacers fitted bud, I did think about them but insurance implications put me off the idea.
