I like it, when can you now do it for real. How did you do that Question
Yes I totally agree, did not want the L405 slots would have preferred the Honeycomb style. As with J90 was looking for a refresh without the the expense of the 'full frontal'.
Rear lights are next, just need to be fitted Very Happy

It really does sound like there could be a market for the grille you have put on, but with a honeycomb option Thumbs Up

Its not the same though..........the honeycomb is shaped round the lights, rather than being straight as per the one Chillbe has fitted, where the "straight shape" of the grill down each side mimics the 2010 facelift Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2016 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Santorini Black

Have looked at these a few times, I do quote like it with the slightly darker middle and grey surround, but have wondered myself why powerful didn't order them with the supercharged centre rather than the l405 style middle..... Would have had one if they had.

Edit Price now reduced to £95 from £175...... Only gone and ordered one, will see if I like it in the flesh, might get the local bodyshop to spray the middle.... There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Keep me posted, whilst I like the silver of the supercharge I must admit the grey from verydisco's photosop does suit it a lot better. Still trying to get a response from Powerful after writing to them on the 17th of December as some imperfections in the finish so check yours.

I only got mine because it had been reduced to £95. Fortunately mine had no imperfections or problems with the finish. The silver finish is a bit brighter than anticipated and I'd prefer it to have a honeycomb mesh however it's grown on me and I quite like it now. The front of the car looks beefier. I'm happy with it.

Anyway I've seen worse mods on a RR; chrome pillars Whistle Travelling around in circles again.

Side by side on this image, that black car with the L405 esque grille looks quite good and dare I say fresher/ at a glance as modern as the facelift model next to it (dons tin hat) Shocked

Thank you Thumbs Up as verydisco said 'could almost be as LR intended' when you see them side by side. Almost being the operative word.

Come on, it is not that bad. Personally I like that update very much Thumbs Up . Looks brilliant in my opinion and I am for sure not a big fan of chrome.

It's nice, but I prefer the original bar grill tbh, and before I get the usual, I have owned a 2007MYSC and 2010MYSC - I think my original pre-2005 facelift with the square lights was the best, but am happy with the 2007MY diesel front end now, harks back to the original RR in more ways!

P.S. This is just my opinion, I'm not dissing the grill in the post Smile Land Rover Addict

Quite like it on in the light....

It's a toss up imho they all look quite good, might also get a cheap original vogue grille and spray it slightly darker than brunell. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜
