Cairns Blue Colour coding help

Does anybody have a link to a Cairns blue RRS picture that has had the colour coding done to the bottom half (door strips and bumper bottom sections).

I've tried everywhere to get some pics but can't find any. I want to know how it looks before I take the plunge!

Here you go Hoppy, with color coded side mouldings: http://www.rangerovers.net/forum/viewtopic...ns#p241416

These pics convinced me I was going to color code mine as well.

Thumbs Up

I received my parts today...and installed them. See below before/after pics. I am still waiting on the color coded tailgate strip to make my project complete.

I love the result. I also changed the side blinkers and rear lights like the MY09 models.

Note: click on the pics to enlarge... Thumbs Up

Front grille:




Side blinkers (MY09) and color coded side vents:




Rear lights (MY09) and loadstrip (waiting on the color coded tailgate strip):




And some final "after" shots:



Installation time: around 30 minutes (for a beginner like myself). Ofcourse it started pouring (he, it's the Netherlands, not uncommon around here), so some of the pics did not come out that good, IMHO. Then again: that's the look when wet! Laughing

Greetz! Very Happy

Thanks. The tailgate strip will improve the looks even more. Hope it arrives soon.

The side mouldings and lower mouldings front and back will have to wait. But am seriously thinking about it. It's sooo tempting...! Laughing Laughing

Looks great Snowski. I've just ordered a bargain set of trims from ebay for £40. Includes all the door strips and the boot trim panel. I'm going to have a bash at colour coding them myself I think.

I have some experience and at that price I can afford to make a hash of it a couple of times if need be!

Did you replace the grill altogether or have you sprayed the middle silver? Range Rover Sport HSE DYnamic SDV6 Velocity blue 2020 MY

The grill is also color coded: the "outside" is in Cairns Blue (call that the body)...the grille itself was painted in SC Titan. I think the grille comes apart from the body. Makes it easier to paint. Same for the side vents.

Curious to see your results..! Good luck! Thumbs Up

A few of you have PM'ed me regarding the cost of this work.

Here's what I paid:

Lower Tailgate cladding Cairns Blue with Range Rover logo - £140
Brunel bumper tread mat titan - £15
Clear Side Markers MY09 - £15

I also asked for a quote on fully color coding the lower claddings (or mouldings), this is what Stuart quoted me:
Lower door claddings 6 pieces - £300
B Post Claddings - £110
C Post Cladding - £180

You can reach Stuart at 110694@live.co.uk or automotive_enhancements@yahoo.co.uk
