United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Westminster TDV8 Orkney Grey

Thanks Stan,

Was only looking yesterday whether or not to change the tailgate trim to gloss black but in my opinion I think it goes nicely with the reversing lights (possible upgrade to LED's in the future) encasing the number plate.

However I reckon highlighting the 'Westminster' on the badge is a top idea.

Any recommendations on how to do it? Obviously I don't want brush strokes or a $hit looking job doing.

Thumbs Up

i agree re the trim Thumbs Up

i took my AB off [making a note where it came off] and lightly rubbed the lettering by having some sandpaper on a flat surface ...you need to be careful not catch the edges of the badge.

once cleaned of grime i gently painted the letters with a very small paint brush, the [metal type] paint seemed to go to the edge of the letter and kinda stay there.. ... - .- -.

I don't have a westie....just a Border terrorist (and Collie!)
But my full fat does have the silver lower grille strip of a westie and is a 2012MY.
It also has L405 wheels so I guess it's not sure what it is, so probably doesn't qualify for the club Sad
