If you want it to look like one that bad, surely you'd have the noble finish grille?

I don't give a toss mate to be fair. I like the look though, hence why it's been done.

I don't want anything that bad, it's my car, I enjoy it for what it is. I don't like the debadged look, I don't like the standard Vogue badge (Bit 80's for my liking) and I prefer the black LR badges simply due to it goes better with grey.

Before the 2010MY changes, anyone could buy a FFRR and specifiy additions to the spec, these were termed Autobiography options, and this meant that your car was unique or different. Anything was possible, literally, as long as you could afford it.

The conversion looks terrific, even though I am not a fan of the 22" Tigers I think they go well, for me a set of OE 20" supercharged alloys would make it look perfect.

I think considering the work done, you have every right to name it an Autobiography.  Discovery 4 HSE

Thanks appreciate the comments You learn something new everyday!! Didn't know that.

With ref the wheels, it's something I have always fancied and to have 22" wheels is a tick off the list.

I love the 20" wheels that you just got, them powdercoated like my Tiger's would be a nice option for me! Used to have:

I know what you mean re the wheels, I washed mine today and they had that smoked silver/grey look to them (due to the dirt) but they looked kinda cool.

You could always look for a damaged set and get them dipped and stripped, costs £100 per wheel when done properly. Discovery 4 HSE

lets hope and pray you dont have a crash as u will get dickly squat from the insurance, u have changed the body shape from factory default and that means its classed as a bodykit and needs to be declared, also with the 22" as also this is above the recommended size for that vehicle and also needs to be declared.

I dont think you have even mentioned these things to your insurance company or else you prems would have shot up. i got this from my brother who owns an insurance company.

as for the biog badge people who do this urks me as I do own aa original 2005 autobiography,

but all being siad the car does look nice though.

cheers

Information for you. It's a trade policy, I am in the trade, it's a valid policy and I pay a vast insurance premium to allow be to drive modified cars due to in my trade, many cars are modified. As I drive them I need it. It covers personal cars as well.

Ask your brother about them

Don't just assume I spent a fortune on the car and forget about the law!

As said, I like the badge so it's fitted.

Car looks stunning mate. I after seeing your tigers coloured makes me wanna get mine done. Are they the same grey as the car? I fancied getting my tigers coloured black just not to sure if dark alloys would look good on a silver car???

Mine arn't the same grey they are slightly more polished chrome if that makes sense (Without any chrome). I can find out from the chap who did them the colour code if you wish?

I didn't want black as you lose the detail I find?

I also removed all the bolts around the edge, as I prefer the look without it. Though am thinking putting chrome caps where they were. May be borderline chavvy tho....
