Did the discs make a big difference? I’ve always felt my SVR is underbraked (compared to other cars I’ve owned) and I’m not sure if a change of High performance discs would help.

The discs are from Britpart which disco-Mikey recommended,the front pads are Hawk ceramic low dust & the rears are Ferrodo.All in they cost me £388 plus about a tenner for the front sensor,I also fitted new fitting kit to rear which came with pads,the rear sensor I managed to get off without damaging it. Andy.

Mud flaps on today as well as black sport, autobiography and LR badges. Just need to pluck up courage to do the Range Rover now

I really want to do the rear bumper as you have done, my only concern is resale. Personally I’d be grateful if it had the updated rear bumper but not sure what a dealer would say. Thoughts?

I’ve already done the rear lights which look so much better but can easily be swapped back.

If you do fit the rear bumper just remember you need to cut the tail pipes off to make it fit.When I was at Hatfields in Pickering last year for service I asked them to give me a price & he said he couldn’t put it on his forecourt with the new shape bumper as LR wouldn’t be happy,,I replied what about the Urban kits that they fit I’ve seen them at mail dealers,at least mine has a original LR bumper not a aftermarket kit. Andy.

I also have the face lift rear bumper to fit once the parts come back from the spray shop.
Regarding the tail pipes and potential re-sale, easy fix of just welding the tips back on if marked up correctly

I did contemplate getting a face lift exhaust system to swap over, but these go for £££££ and hard to get hold of

Drago,you could always weld them back on.Remember when you cut them off to cut them to the rear of the bracket that holds the exhaust up.
