2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Vesuvius Orange

Project update...

Anyway, as you may remember some time back I was planning on doing some work to the RRS, well here's the in progress photos...

Let's start with the how it looked...

Click image to enlarge

kind of standard looking...

...and now the paint shop work...

Click image to enlarge

So as you can see coming along nicely

colour is very changeable subject to the light, outside in the sunshine its a real orange metallic, inside in natural light copper...

Also the guys have done a superb job stripping the car completely to give me a factory quality, well better than factory finish

Will keep you updated peeps.

Cheers

Guy

Looking good... I was beginning to think VO was starting to date a little bit, but looking forward to the finished product based on those pics

2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Java Black

Very thorough job, could understand taking bumpers and bonnet off for spraying. But removing the front wings as well, look like perfectionists.

I Love VO

Would imagine the paint job should be as good if not better than the factory.

From my experience of factory paint booths, admittedly twenty years ago, they don't always come out with consistent finishes.

Cheers guys,

Think I'm going to get the hubs painted matt black when the brake callipers are painted heat resistant VO, the grey/ silver behind the wheels looks wrong, and I may as well get it right now than have it done later...

Oh and the wing mirror tops are going to be smoothed and painted VO also

I keep you posted as the new parts arrive and are installed

Cheers
