Suggestions needed!

Hello Everybody

Just joined in as a member.
I'm from Los Angeles and currently own a grey range rover sport HSE 06, I've decided to pimp out my car, any suggestions about prices/shops in LA for installation or purchase are welcome.

1. HST kit front and rear bumper only. (cost: around $4k, have to order from germany couldn't find it in the US)
2. HST front grill (cost: $750 at ebay)
3. 22" stormer black wheels and Toyo tires. (cost: $1800 in LA)
4. Black Headlight & Taillight cover (StickerCity.com $50)
5. Fully wrap the car with vinyl matte black. (StickerCity.com $3.2k)
6. Larini 'Sport' Exhaust System. (cost: $2k, have to order from UK)

Any ideas?

Stormers look good, but consider the Supersports from Overfinch. The daddy of all wheels

As for the rest, good mods apart from the HST parts imho.

Matte black...

I've seen the cars with this quite often recently. But you may wanna be careful with this because depending on the car, it may look better or worse with this film.

I saw a Porsche Cayenne with matt black film all over and didn't like it. But I did like it on X6.

Maybe I'm missing the point but why would you want to buy a nice shiny polished RRS and wrap it up in looking black plastic film?

The only point behind doing this (as far as I can tell) is if you like going into bushes.... guess that makes the film a bit like a giant condom then...?!

This is an idea of how its gonna look except for the rim, i think with those rims its too much black and i think the 22" black stormer, 23" silver rinspeed or the 22" Hawke saker would fit best.

in that photo, if the side vents, front grill, door handles, mirrors, tinted windows and headlight/taillight was shiny black is would fit better with those rims.

Today, I stopped by a tunning shop and owner said one of his clients(singer) has a matte black finished RRS Supercharger. They tried several wheels and 22" was the best. 20" was little weak for matte finish(since you wanna pimp it out). That singer had black chromed "Range Rover" letters done.

FYI, even though shops say the film last 5 yrs, you may wanna re-do it every 3 yrs. These 3M/Johnson films are popular here among exotic car owners. I saw one guy put white film on his silver SL63. 09 TDV6 HSE, Stornoway Grey/Black, Sat. DMB/Navi, 2GB memory, Rear view camera, 12 CD/MP3/DVD changer, 35% Lumar tinting, Custom exhaust tips
