2011 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

My main issue with getting the desired paint/polish finish is behind the door handles

That is possible relatively easily.

There are finger foam applicators that are available and with these thats not a major issue.

This allows product to be applied and correction achieved .

They slip over finger and allows you pretty good access.

I'm not keen on the full de-badge, but certain items can improve the look I think.

A man after my own heart!!!

Frustrating isnt it.

Tape the handles up and use a larger pad than you have back plate fitted if you know what I mean.

This will allow a certain amount of access though not 100%.

I end up just doing the part I cant access by hand.

I wonder how hard it is to remove total handle??

now that would satisfy the OCD!!!

How about fitting a larger pad to the DA with more over hang, that way you're not getting the machine close to the handle but the pad will shape to correct there ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
