Stornoway Grey Metallic

Hello Guys what do you think to Range Rover Sports in Stornoway Grey Metallic?

Do they look better colour coded all round?

Can you guys give me some nice styling tips for the Stornoway Grey Metallic?

Im looking at one tomorrow - its mint too inside and out so fingers crossed.....

Is Stornoway Grey Metallic a good colour guys? sought after?

The Range Rover sport 1 looks great in any colour as long as it's black!

Awesome colour.

What would you think these wheels refurbished to another colour would look best.?
Haven't found anyone sprayed these another colour??

Anyone sprayed these another colour?

Silver seems a bit boring I want them bit unique and shiny but not chrome! Any ideas?

It's personal taste but I think leave the wheels silver, add side steps and don't colour code.

Generally, I favour boring old silver wheels, but grey is one colour I would consider black wheels on. Thumbs Up Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

2012 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Firenze Red

I'm about to do my original set in Graphite metallic this weekend.

I've just sorted out the kerbing and scuffs and if I get time over the weekend I'll do it.

I'll post pictures when I get time.

They are the same ones as in the picture above.

I put these ones on- 21 inch but I think I'll go back to standard- hence the refurb of the old scuffed wheels.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

You don't need to colour code a Stornoway Grey car, most of the plastic bits except the lower door spoiler things are very nearly the same colour anyway. I would leave the wheels the colour they are or you can get Anthracite Grey wheels that are a good match for Stornoway (I have Anthracite ZU 5 spoke light weight alloys on my Defender). Personnally I think most Land Rover products are best left unadorned, however it's up to you but whatever you do, do not colour code the A,B,C or D pillars, it makes the car look too much like an L322 FFRR.

This was my Stornoway Grey 2007MY TDv8 after fitting the HST grille and the driving light /fog light combo units, note that the grille and driving light bezels are unpainted plastic as it left the factory.



This is my Defender on Anthracite Alloys - as far as I am aware you cannot get these wheels for RRS though

Big Cry so you have changed your opinion from a car "That is seen on council estates everywhere and that are worthless, one that you would be embarrassed to own or words to that effect and a RRS1 that looks like a dated box shaped depreciation bomb" to the above comment Question

I agree with Tim - had a Stornoway grey 2010 and loved it but went for black in 2013 because the trim was black not grey at that time and it felt right being a Black Edition Wink
