2010 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Santorini Black
before and after

On MY10 3.0v6 I had the black gloss covers put over my door handles when I recently purchased the vehicle as they were scratched, which I think made all the difference. Now though I think the standard side grilles and front look out of place, so have bought some aftermarket products. Still waiting for the sides but replaced the front grille with all black as below. which is an improvement in my opinion.

Other opinions welcome!!

Will post sides when fitted.

I prefer the original "bars" look of the OEM grille. I have never liked the "one piece" style. The "bars" style is what makes a Rangey a Rangey. But, I am old fashioned so what you do is up to you.

it seems to be like you started to fit an autobiography grill, but not quite managed to get there..sorry just does
not quite look right IMHO of course..perhaps a metal finish would do it Another Pommie Bar Steward down under

Thanks for you honest opinions Big Cry Big Cry

Believe me I looked at a lot of front grille options/combinations but went for all black with black U because the silver U in my eyes didnt look right.

I suppose thats the beauty of forums and sharing thoughts with others. Hopefully someone will approve Whistle

I did consider colour coding the surround as it is a nice grille, and something I will be considering for a change in the future, as I wont be selling the original for what its worth.
