2009 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Stornoway Grey

Painted and chromed side vents.

I bought a set of black vent covers which claimed to have ‘chromed’ the mesh background. They look rubbish as the 'chrome' is just silver paint. There goes £160 for nothing.

I did see the following product which absolutely looks the dogs....although I’m not sure that they look balanced without the 2 horizontal fins.

Lots of money, what do think?

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Quite a few on here have the carstyling side vents Rad, I don't know anybody who has the chromed ones as they are SO expensive. They are good but quite expensive in just bodycolour and silver. I have some photos in my gallery of them in Giverny Green

These are a similar look to those as fitted to the HST from LR

Not for me either

Good job on the front grill Doc.

Did you get the side pillars done locally or the whole grill already modded?

I've look at the colour coded front grill now on a few RR Sports and something just doesn't look right to me - I think the side grills work, however not sure on the front grill

Agree - the grey surround on the front grill blends in with colour/tone of the headlights.
