my vogue with new wheels fitted

heres just a couple of pics wioth my 22 inch wheels fitted,probably not what you guys like but i have my range purely for posing.

They suit the car well.....just about to get new(to me) wheels, but only Land Rover Alloys. I see you have my problem of the badge issue. Mine were picked off outside the place where i practice but, as i am about to have it resprayed i have had to peel the rest of them off otherwise it looked like i wasn't bothered.

looks alright actually, fills the arch well and im the first to condem cock alloys.No good in mud though!

why thank you,yes the famous peeling leters,ive ordered a new set £34.10 from land rover butdue to the post stike still waiting for it to turn up.

that looks really smart I reckon. You should get some alloy strips from auto grilles to go on the front grill, it looks really good on the silver rangie, my dads has got it and it looks top! I'll upload some pictures if ya like!

i would spray the grill and the bits under the lights, i use that plasticote matt black but you can use any matt black. the plasticote does scratch easy but i usually put a cote on evry now and then. it'd look well smart then!

yeh please upload so i can see,i was thinkinh about buying the modern grill what you thing?do i have to take the lights out to get the pieces out underneath?

dont take lights out, just mask up very well, spend 3 times more masking than spraying!!!

only one i have is this but you can certainly see the finnish is very good and worth doing if yer selling too!! use baby oil to polish rest of plastics



this is the spray i used:

Decorative spray paints from Plasti-kote, the market leading spray paint

which grill this one below?? Could do, looks good as well but quite expensive i imagine!?
The strips are an instant enhancement and really change the look. We've found we dont even need to re-treat the dullness of the black plastic grill with em on. I'll take a picture when i get home (if its not pitch black!) and post it.

i think it depends on the colour of the car as to what you can get away with, i have epsom green, with the black light guards and grill it looks kinda menacing in a way.

the silver looks good on blues and blacks. the black also looks good on red cars!

yes something like that they are around £150,like the look of gavs though in black,not sure if the black will suit the silver car though

you can spray it then just scrape it off if you dont like it. i reckon it'll smarten it up to how it used to be, afterall they didnt come with faded plastics!!! also its about 3.50 a tin, one is planty, and you can always change to the silver one if you dont like it!

yeh may do it,would you recommend,halfords matt or satin black?or the stuff you use?where do you get your stuff from?

lets say mines aquired from a source that i vist everyday for 8 or more hours!!!

i'm sure you can get it at b n q.

the halfrauds or any car paint should do but will obviously be more permanent. i used that stuff just because i could get it free.

paint isnt expensive so mebbe try on the back of the grill or the bit that goes on slam panel???

apply light coats, dont try to cover the lot in one go. took me a while to build up the paint, especially all the nooks.

you can also get colour matched spray for your car paint code. its an option if you dont like black!

Yeah first thing i did was spray my grill black looks much better. than the faded plastic. How do you get little strips out from under the lights??

Looks nice the way your wheels fit under the arches i had mine lowered a few inches to make it sit nice in accses mode. is yours standard??

yes mines standard was going to get it re programmed to sit lower.

Let me know how far you get it lowered. cause the bloke said to me that it could only be done an half an inch or so but i think it must be able to go lower.

Looking good by the way. what tyres you got on there? painfully priced aren't they,lol

Whats the ride like?

yeh will do mate,got almost new toyo proxys on there 285/30/22,they are dare wheels bought the wheels and tyres for £600 quid on sunday bargain or what?the ride is still good,yes you can feel pot holes but to be fair the roads are pretty good round here,was thinking of going down the chrome accesories but not sure what it would look like,had a merc ml all chromed up and it looked great but that was a dark blue,not sure the chrome would go with the silver,would like to do the updated headlights though but heard it a big job and hard.
