looks amazing. I can say matte carpathian or the carpathian edition in pictures does not give the color it’s justice. I saw one at the dealer for the first time and was blown away
i went with classic mud flaps also. was back and forth and when i saw side profiles of the defender without it just looked like something was missing.
The Urban build is between street and off road appearance wise. the flaps work for me
The matte Carpathian Grey looks great. The quality of the PPF from the factory is excellent, though they don't wrap around the body panels like most custom shops do. They must use pre-cut PPF pieces and apply them to the panels.
I have a factory matte finish Alpina B6 (Frozen Brilliant Metallic White), and I have to say I prefer the Xpel Fusion PPF finish to the factory matte paint! The factory matte paint from BMW is very difficult to maintain.
The Urban Automotive parts are finally installed. Fitment of the parts was generally very good, and the quality of the painted finish on the parts is excellent.

- Urban Wide Arch Kit

I’m happy with the finished product. The Wide Arch Kit really broadens the look of the Defender.
absolutely Love this build. I have a 23' Carpathian, but my brake calipers came black...i think the blue just makes it special. I think I will do the same exact set up, except I originally was planning for milltex exhaust, but now I am thinking of putting that on pause and putting the light pod. Can I ask you what tires you put on there and was there a specific reason you went with firestone over BFGko2 or Nitto Terra grapplers or Falcon Wildpeak?
