Nice look, it looks like you have changed both wings as well as lights, bumper & grille? Or have you also done the bonnet?
Keen to upgrade my D3, so would like to know where & how much the parts were? Presume you had to buy new as there couldnt be much out there on the secondhand scene?

Oh dear, wish I had not looked at this thread. Having replaced my Land Rover lettering with shiny new ones, I was starting to think about a few other changes to freshen up my D3. Now I have seen this, I feel sure SWMBO will notice Perhaps the answer is to make the changes slowly or change Betty Rubble fast 2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

Hey Cam-Tech-Craig,
I'm curious to know the name of the body kit you had on your upgraded D3 and where you purchased it. I currently live in Denver, CO USA and would like to have my D3 upgraded too.
FYI - That was a nice looking D3
Thanks!

I have been wanting to also do a face lift to the 14-15 model, but its hard to get the parts cheaply in the US.
In the UK they have garages that offer face lifts for LR's.
This is as far as I have gotten with my LR3. I also got the LR4 7 split spoke wheels, will be putting them on ASAP.
I was thinking of painting the rest of the bumper and color coding arches, but since my LR is Bonatti Grey it works with out the color coding.
1. De Tangoed Headlights, with yellow reflector on side to comply with US regulations.
2. Lr4/Discovery 4 style grille
3. Waiting on silver bulbs (blink amber) to replace temporary amber.

Great what you have done Craig, was wondering was it much work to do the front lights as in the picture when you still have rst front bumper, as I like mine but would like to upgrade the lights.

D4 Fillers for D3 DST front bumper.
Hate to dig up old threads and what not. But I am very interested in how this headlight and grill combo was mounted on a D3!
I read somewhere that fillers were used.
My D3 is in the paint shop as we speak getting prepped for a trip. I'm going Satin Black. I'm fitted with the DST front bumper kit and would love to upgrade the headlights just like below!
I guess if I could avoid having to purchase the two new wings and and entire new front end. That would be PERFECTION.
help me out CAM!!

This is as far as I got with the face lift on mine. I decided just to update the D4/LR4 2010-2013 Grille to the Black Landmark Style 2016 Style.
My girl picked up another 2005 Bonatti Grey V8 SE D3/LR3 in Cali last year with 70K miles and I updated the Grille also to the 2015 D4 BLK/SL/GR style. If we want them back to Classic D3's it's just a change of grille. (I sold the 2010-2013 style Grille)
