Congratulations. Tasman is beautiful. My 2022 110 P400 is Pangea Green. But you will have more enthusiasm if you post in the "2020 Defender" subforum, which is about the L663 (2020-2025) Defender. This one is about 1983 - 2016 Defenders. Easy mistake to make.

Cheers!

Very sharp looking car! Can't wait to see how it turns out with the matte film. What did you come to the Defender from? I just picked up my 2nd on and they are absolutely great.

Thank you very much!

I came from the Jeep Team. Previously owned Wrangler, and most recently….Jeep Gladiator (which I traded it in for the LR…..not going to lie….it was hard to say good bye. lol)

I am definitely bias, but Tasman Blue is one of the best. Especially when dirty.

Congrats on the new car!

Congrats

Tasman is the best color.


Bonus points if it's on white 18" steelies.

Love it

Some advice: you may want to buy one of the aftermarket upper rear bumper rubberized bumper protectors to protect your top of the rear bumper from getting scuffed. My X has a shiny silver one - and - very glad I did it when new.

I bought one on Amazon bc when I had mine nothing good was available - Works great. Been on there for years. This is the exact one I bought -
Amazon Amazon
I thought it would be cheap crap but it’s been on there, parked outside, hasn’t faded, it’s rubbery (not hard plastic) and it’s great. (also if you have a dog they can grip on it unlike the bumper)
