Does anyone know what's behind those 2 false grill sections on the 2007 car?



At normal ride height they are (just) above the minimum 250mm height regulation

I've just checked with my supplying dealer and they say they are not fitted so is it this now illegal? MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

Nooo don't do it, they look tacky on anything other than factory fitted, although they look well on that RRS. Chav's are fitting them to their motors Big Cry Unless you want to become a chav (again) :rolllaugh:

Why not just plump for a set of 2011 headlights?

I believe Revere do an exchange programme for circa £600 Smile

it's not that simple though is it?

The 2011 lights do not fit without a new front end.

Pimp my range and hawke have <2009 headlights with LED strips but I don't like the led pattern RRS gone

the only Revere headlights I can find in my range rover sport section is on a 2010 car... so the angel lights are standard (with blacked out surrounds by Revere) This the one you're on about? RRS gone

I PM'd the owner and he informed me that the Revere lights have LED sidelights?

I may have got my wires crossed though Rolling with laughter

I've got LED daylights fitted to mine but would suggest getting bigger ones like the audi version. I bought mine from Arden and the lights are not that bright. I wished I got a brighter set or gone for one with bigger bulbs.
