No character to it, like the colour coded D3's IMHO

Agreed - saw an ALL Alveston Red D3 on the M40 this afternoon - just not right! Steve N | 21MY Defender (on order) | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

2006 Range Rover Sport 4.4 V8 HSE Chawton White

That is too much silver for my taste... In particular, I think painting the pillars and mirrors takes away the floating roof effect that makes the car look so sleek and slender... With everything painted like that, it looks a bit chubby to me, and smaller than it really is. And there may be front grilles out there that look better than the "Remington triple-blade electric razor" design that comes standard with our cars, but I have not seen one yet.

This color coded silver Sport looks better in my opinion (a bit less silver):

I Totally agree with that statement. I thought that a mesh grill would look pretty cool like on the XJR, but now after seeing all the aftermarket grills, nothing really "fits" RRS S/C Special Edition, Vesuvius

The RRS looks great because of the floating roof, coding the pillars just doesn't work Like this site? Buy some RRSPORT goodies to show your support!

Don't like option 1 and the second version is marginally better. But I'm not even sure about the colour coded bottom sections being done.
I considered having the bottom sections painted before I took delivery, but now I think it looks good the way it is. If I did I certainly wouldn't paint the handles etc. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

Yea it looks like the HST grille. The H2 in the background is bloody awful.

VA's pics - Awful. Completely spoils the look of the car. As has been said before it needs the floating roof to keep the sporty look of the car.

That grille looks like soneones taken off their old grille and forgotton to put another one in its place!

U's pic - I quite like it but tend to agree with Josh. Leave it well alone. Looks stunning car as std. Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award
