Most of the D3s there have the V6 brake system. They mention the brake package as part of the sales selection, so if you order from them make sure they know you have a 4.4 petrol V8. (that is IF you have a petrol V8)
From thier web site:
*If you have the SCV6, don't worry, we have you covered with the TuffAnt Alloys which are available now. They look great, perform great, and importantly, fit your car! Unfortunately none of the late model Supercharged V8s will fit 18" wheels and for Defender P400 fitment brake modifications are necessary

That's the wiring harness from the driver's side front height sensor that is mounted to the frame rail and goes to the compressor.
@loanrangie Yes different area. That's a pic of how I re-routed the height sensor wiring. As for the bulge in the rear wheel well, after I removed the lining and pounded the chassis join flange flat with a Blacksmith Hammer (and hit it with primer just to be safe) there is nothing behind the plastic bulge to rub on anymore.
The reason not to do the heat gun thing is that a guy like me would probably melt a massive hole in the lining or otherwise have it looking like a Kindergartener's melted crayons after they left them out in the sun for three hours.

Yeah you don't want to go in their heat gun a blazing, slow and gentle is all it takes, luckily the are i did there was a hole in the chassis just the right size for a spare trim plug to hold the liner in place after reshaping it.
