Definitely would like to see it like a KAHN special......which is nice and clean. Just don't bling it out too much.

Any how took off the front plate and plugged the horribly drilled holes that were left behind by the prior owner today and ordered the sport grille in chrome. It's no strut grille but I think will look good and keep a clean oem look with a black land rover emblem. Ill get some good pics with the Nikon once its all said and done. These cell pics suck.

Can someone verify for me if these lug nuts would work. I had a pair in titanium neo chrome on the z and miss them. I found these made by monster in 14x1.5

Not sure on the wheels. They were on there when I bought it. I have checked the speed and the speedo is calobrated correctly.

Default Be careful with wheels and lug nuts.

Below is a link to a pdf I did up re the lug nut. The washer is on the factory lug nuts for a reason - not just to make them expensive. The taper angles matter as well as the metallurgy; it is not just a question of thread size.

The link below is to a number of files, some of which relate to wheels. The 3 and 4 use the heaviest wheel Land Rover makes - heavier than the Full Fat RR or even the RRSport, let alone the Defenders - well the military Defenders may have heaver wheels as they are sort of bullet proof.

That is about the dumbest looking thing I've ever seen. Please don't ruin your LR3.

x2 ....go get a P38 and trick it out. It's more conducive to that.
