I think there is one at either end. Thumbs Up

Lane is in 2 parts starting at Lorton and ending up at Loweswater. Bottom end at Loweswater was a bit more washed out since I was last down it - and that was in a Defender. Was also glad I have vinyl although it now has light scratches, it's a lot better than the same in the paintwork!

Yes Luvbus, it's matt black but called 'carbon' and the bonnet is 'carbon fibre' - wrap not real carbon of course Rolling with laughter

Kind of looks Matt grey/silver in the pics like the Beckham Evoke, very smart.

Like the idea as my D3 is suffering from bramble rash quite a bit now. Perhaps a machine polish then a wrap is the way forward. Club N.E.R.D.s

I bought the car already wrapped but the seller did say it was around £1500 Confused

Mat d3

The mat finish looks great. I've seen quotes around the £1000 mark. You can also add graphics quite cheep as well. I've seen cars have the exact same colour as the original paint, great for laning as it adds the extra protection which you can peel off when you sell the car on.
