I like that upgrade aswell, it would be nice to see the dash enhancements, i would like to do something like that but mine is a 2007 so i am limited as Powerful UK don't offer a kit.

What size wheels do you have, 20" or 22" ?

Are the rear lights custom?.

Anyone noticed the 3rd brake light "white" LEDs?, is it a strip replacing the original red plastic part ?, let's see some pics once it is completed, please.

A simple blacking out of the said red plastic bid would actually be even better, see below. Thumbs Up

Very funny, my fault, the wheels were at an angle when I took the photo! We corrected it and took some more with the wheels straight, but I can't upload them. Crying or Very sad

Why would you want to black out the rear lead when you're going with clear lights all round? Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining!

I like LEDs on rear lights, but I reckon that visually "deleting" the 3rd brake light by tinting it would simplify the line of the Rangie.

Ditto with lightly tinting the rear bumper red reflective trim (see the photo I posted of the silver S/C one)

We all look forward to see your additional pics, otherwise PM me and I will put them online for you

Yes we were trying to take some styling hints from the original SC lamps... I dont know why LRO have not made SC style clear rear lights for the 2010 model... We slightly tinted the two round lights as it all looked alittle too much all in clear... They were originally made for my 04 Autobiography TD6 which was in "java black" but still work well on a grey car i think...

Yes i would be willing to make more. But deep pockets are needed my friend, as this kind of bespoke work does not come cheap!!!

We like to think of it as the old days or "hay days" in Overfinch when they made real bespoke items...

No-one's mentioned the side strips being white now instead of coloured... That was the main reason for the work as i did'nt like the orange strips in the headlights and it's all kind of moved on from there...

Nice one Cam-Tech-Craig

Did you slightly tint the headlamps too, or is it just the fact that you painted them inside that give this look (+ taking off the orange strip)?

Please post 3/4 front and 3/4 rear photos of you FF Wink

On the photoshoped pics of the rear lights I posted, I "tinted" the red side strip, again willing to smooth out the lines.
It is great to get rid of the red reflective strip as you did, but fitting a white one, you still have this vertical line that is only there because of US regulation, not because any designer wanted it (same reason as the 3rd brake light in fact).

I look at those things, thinking: if one can get rid of it let's do so. I am not criticizing you work at all, just offer some input.

Again nice work.Thumbs Up

Two red reflectors on the back of a vehicle is a legal requirement.
The fact that you have tinted the bumper reflectors and have no red reflectors in the rear light clusters makes you a good candidate for getting pulled by plod.
Usually it's only chavs in vauxhalls that get pulled for tinted reflectors so it should make somebody's day pulling a RR for the same reason. Smile

The reason why the strips have not been covered is that we want to keep the factory look but with a twist! They have orange and red led's behind so work as factory NAS lights, just better looking "in my opinion"

The 3rd brake light is a work in progress at present so will probably change again soon...

Finally, the rear reflectors are a dislike of mine but uk legislation wont allow their removal!
