Hey Drevs not sure about colour coding the headlights, might get a little much. Would really have to see that up close in the flesh so to speak to make a decision. And then they would look like twins

Was your RRS actually originally VO or did you get it respayed? How do you find the LTZs?

Excellent job Guyzer! I'm not sure about colour coding the lights VO either, works OK in black, not sure about the orange

I don't like modded and blinged RRS

BUT in this case, I will make an exception I think it looks bloody great.

Well done, its an original idea and you have obviously put a lot of thought into it.

Cheers BK!!

Schmoogle, agree, think it works well with the lower skirts in black plastic, then the grille, headlight surrounds, side vents, door handle and lower boot 'lip' in gunmetal. And finally the black A, B, C and D pillars with privacy glass to give the floating roof effect...

Cheers

Mine is OEM VO.
LTZ's were found at Discount Tire Stores. I also find them very capable offroad. Not sure which "Find" you're talking about.
Another cool thing is that the spare will fit in the factory location w/o airing down.

You people and the color coded headlights... LR is so behind the times on that - many lux brands have been doing that for years now. LR just wanted to save production costs with a standardized part. Once you do it, I bet you'll wonder why you doubted it. It really is a big improvement.

Quality finish!  Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

Saw a VO RRS this afternoon

Standard colour light looked great

got so in to looking at it the traffic went when the lights changed and I got beeped at by the irrate driver behind me

As mine is in Santorini Black I thought of changing the wheels from shiny silver to either a gunmetal grey or black/shadow chrome and then getting the grills etc colour coded to the car to from the silver but still not sure if would make the whole car look TOO dark. Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.

535d m-sport Platinum grey and a few extras.... Gone

X5 3.0 sd in Space Grey, 20's, Dynamic Pack, Memory Pack, Media Pack, Tow Pack, Rear DVD, Panoramic Sunroof, Steps, 7 Seat Pack, Reversing Camera with moving lines, programmable park heat, etc etc etc - Gone

Range Rover Sport Santorini, privacy, dvd, towpack GONE!!!

No that sounds good. Ive seen black RRS where EVERYTHING is black, wheels, windows, even blacked out lettering and that looks crap (IMO), what you're describing sounds top notch

Sounds like David Beckham's new MY10 RRS, seems to have a thing for black cars.
