I vote landleaping.com -- it's a LR dealer and the pricing is super aggressive compared to most other genuine LR parts sources. Love em, fast shipping. Etc etc.

Had my dealer install the backordered front undershield this morning. Glad to have that front hook exposed in case I get myself in a pickle. Turns out I was the only Rover of the five others scheduled today who chose to brave this winter storm and make it to their scheduled service appointment today - all credit to the Defender of course. Although I do owe credit to my seal/sea otter/beaver fur hat to keep me nice and toasty when it gets below zero out here.

Put on the gloss black wheel cover too. Looks pretty cool the way the ice/snow collects in the DEFENDER stamping.

Nice job. Do you mind sharing what the dealer charged? Or how many hours? Thank you and happy holidays.

The job was surprisingly quick for them to do. They had it done in 2.5 to 3 hours, but since it involves pulling off a lot of the front end, all the breakable clips, I didn't wanna touch the job myself. PowerfulUK has a great video of the process. Unfortunately I probably can't be much help to you on the cost, because it was all paid for when I took delivery and was just waiting on the part to come in off backorder. I'm fairly certain it was $650 parts and installation all included though.

My dealer told me “part costs about $900 and the labor will be about $1045 plus taxes”.

Not bad considering! Happy Holidays and thanks for sharing.
