Default Painting/Wrapping A Pillar and Window Square

I just ordered a new Defender and would like to switch the A Pillar and colored Window Square to black. Are most people painting black or applying black film? Would love to see pictures if you have them. Thanks

Hi,

I had mine wrapped at the dealership after picking it up. I can grab some pictures if you want to see what it looks like all blacked out.

Pics would be great if you don't mind. Your rig is one of my favorites. Curious what the dealer charged if you don't mind sharing. I would prefer paint if the cost is close to avoid peeling issues.

Here are a couple of quick shots:









The wrap is warranted for 7 years through the dealership. I don't know exactly the price as I got ceramic, window tint and the wrap done for one price. I suspect it was about $300

Looks fantastic. I would really like your wheels but looks like they are on backorder.

I suspect that they will be hard to get now that Defenders are being purchased and people want to mod them a bit.

Land Rover forces you to have a black roof if you want to order those black from the factory....this looks like a nice alternative

Looks great, I was just researching the same idea. For the square, can't we just pop off the LR badge?

I’m having mine wrapped this weekend. Then PPF over the wrap so it won’t scratch.
