Out of interest, wonder what it would cost to just have the original vents sprayed to match by a competent bodyshop Steve

I came out close to cost neutral - I can't remember exactly, but got reasonable money for the Atlas ones back on eBay :thumbs:

It also meant I was able to do it all in one go - waiting for a spray shop would be a pain IMHO

Fair enough, guess you would have to drive around with no vents for a few days going down the respray route or not use the car at all for that period. Steve

2013 Range Rover Autobiography TDV8 Fuji White

Hi wealy
it is very easy to change bottom silver strip, just get plastic trim remova tool wich looks like a small crow bar or jimmy bar, and lever the bottom edge of the silver strip do it slowly along the strips length until it pops off then the top of the trim will just lift away, it will take you all of 2 minuets to do each strip. you can get the pictures on how to do it from topic.
hope that helps.
