Rummaging in the garage last night for bits for "Fredo", as my daughter has decided to name it and can't find a Santorini AB front grill anywhere. Got about a dozen grey/silver ones...... sod's law. Will do till i get ahold of Santorini or ill paint it when it goes to the body shop.

Anyhow, wheels and grills today hopefully.

Pea, are you sure your garage doesn't back onto your local Land Rover parts department

yeah you'd think so sometimes but no

Cant decided if the santorini grills work or not, think when the rest of the car is colour coded they might look a bit better. Jury's out of the moment.

It's a no from me on the black vents,
But I think when you get them colour coded it will look  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring
GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it )
GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black
GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass

+2 For colour coded. Otherwise i think they look like after thought add on's just like on the std HSE's that arn't colour coded.

Typical example here.

Im not 100% convinced, either way. I think the grey, silver black and blue make it to much, when the cars coded it might tone tone a bit.

This was where the black front grill idea came from

I actually really like the red and black saw a fully coded red sport with AB kit and black vents/grills and its look awesome IMO.

I know this is a conversion and the wheels aint my cup of tea but ull get my drift

I personally like the idea of the black mesh in the grill, but i would colour code the surround. I perfer the factory bodykit front grill as apposed to the A/B front grill.

@ the EXCLUSIVE lettering......where can I buy that

That red colour coded one looks good actually.  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Its taken you all morning just to fit the wheels Come on pea, i thought it would of been in the body shop now getting colour coded.

I like the black grill, but I think colour coordinating it would look better

And I prefer the original wheels too

Would the side grills fit a HSE black? Are they standard fit across the range/versions
