Good way to test drive a new wheel color without committing.

 

Is that an operating room?...man your garage is clean.

I like the black, looks good against the white body. The only time "I think" black rims look weird...is on black vehicles...but to each their own.

Thanks - Yes, try to keep a tidy space but has it's moments of disarray. Liking the black so far so will let the plastidip start to where and then send to a proper paint shop. I like the kalahari wheels and feel slightly guilty for blacking them out but...I do like the look better than the previous, peeling version. Appreciate the comments/feedback. Cheers

 

Any updates?

Brian.

 

So, I've trudged on with continuous upgrades and will list a few for the below. Really happy with the outcome and the D2 is proving to be (mostly) reliable.


Here are the material upgrades:
- Installed Central Diff lock lever given the transfer case was installed by prior owner (huge difference off-road)
- TerraFirma Rock sliders with tree bars
- BORA 1.75" wheel spacers - These things are truly bullet proof. installed with red loc-tite and haven't budged a bit. The 1.75" is a bit much - 1.25 would have been just right - Stance and stability are outstanding but outside of tires rub a bit with full articulation
- TerraFirma Diff guards Front and Rear
- TerraFirma Gas tank skid plate
- WARN VR8-S 4-ton synthetic winch
- TerraFirma light bar - Mixed feelings about it. Could be lower, installation is very odd and the attachment points could be stronger. No problems so far, but a solid smack by a branch could take it down
- 4 Nilight 51w LED roof lights - 2 spot (center), 2 flood lights (sides). Had the switches professionally installed where the seat heater switch are located (no heated seats so worked perfectly)
- Land Rover OEM Ladder on the back
- Land Rover G4 Tail light guards
- Custom HUE166 plates (AZ Special Olympics supporter plates)

 

Sharing a bit more.
- Admirers - Wife found two guys admiring Rover in parking lot and took pic
- BORA spacer install
- D2 in Natural Desert Habitat
- Saguaro lake with friends
- Valeted next to Rolls Royce...I always valet it when there a choice...just cuz
- Side Profile
- Climbing out of Sedona

 

Looking good!
