Jury's out for me on the cherry wood. I can live with it I suppose, but would've much preferred zebrano (was that even an option on the L322?), lined oak or piano. Can't justify £450 changing something I can live with!

So literally plastic primer gloss black and lacquer? Any chipping issues, has it survived a kid test? My Previous RR's!

I assumed they where rubbed down, primed and then several coats of gloss/laquer. They look the same as factory Piano Black now. 2011 4.4 TDv8 Vogue SE

surely you'd do what I did, buy a rough set of boring coloured (grey in my case) and get them sprayed, and deep polish. then consider the finish, and then set about the changeover, then, presto, your money back on sale of old set... (sort of) or return if 'not sure' |

Only potential issue with having them spray painted and lacquer coates is you lose the RANGE ROVER lettering on the door panels.. |

Spare set sounds like a good plan in principle. Finding one on fleabay could be a challenge. I'm not aware of any Range Rover lettering?? My Previous RR's!

Zebrano would be nice. Wonder if you can get it 'wrapped' - wheeler dealers did it with a carbon fibre look? |
