hi all stupid question but has anyone ever fitted a HST kit by them selve's i mean how hard cen it be oh and would LR fit a kit that they didn't supply?

yes actually i fitted mine 2 weeks ago, but i did have the official land rover instructions which did help alot i think the hardest thing i found was to get the exhaust tips exactly straight!! so what i did was to lift it 6 ft in the air do all the underbody work and then adjust the tips until they looked alright.
let me know if you need any advice.

Did you get the Tungsten paint sorted out eventually?? Sorry I couldnt get much more info for you than LR gave me. Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.

535d m-sport Platinum grey and a few extras.... Gone

X5 3.0 sd in Space Grey, 20's, Dynamic Pack, Memory Pack, Media Pack, Tow Pack, Rear DVD, Panoramic Sunroof, Steps, 7 Seat Pack, Reversing Camera with moving lines, programmable park heat, etc etc etc - Gone

Range Rover Sport Santorini, privacy, dvd, towpack GONE!!!

yep in the end i copied the aston martin tungsten grey colour. land rover dealers said they never heard of such a colour! but they ould get me an aerosol!! lol thanks for the help anyway!

If both AM and LR use the colour, it's probably an old Ford colour.

Any pictures amigo?  Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

They do pop up on Ebay periodically but are prohibitively expensive. The guys that have fitted them DIY, did it need painting or was the kit already the correct colour ? HST does looks the nuts though

Just had my kit painted and fitted to my supercharged by DCC 4X4, Looks the dogs !! like it should do imho.
and martin is a top bloke! highly recomended.
