England 2015 Range Rover SVAutobiography SDV8 Loire Blue

So, went to a friendly high street car parts store today and purchased a range of paint colors to paint the calipers... Still have not decided which color to paint them... Whistle

Red would stand out nicely against the blue but probably wouldn’t suit the character of the RR SV.

A grey of some variety would probably look smart Smile 2002 4.6 Vogue SE - Alveston Red with Lightstone Leather

Netherlands 2010 Range Rover Autobiography 5.0 SC V8 Santorini Black

Considering every 'slow' diesel around me seems to have red callipers I wanted to keep the stealth look with mine. To refresh mine I painted them and the hubs nice black. Very discreet behind the 22" wheels...

A dark blue to match the car or black / grey as suggested would look good, and classy. Thumbs Up It seems that every man and his dog has shouty calipers these days, not a good look on some cars, to say the least.

Not been on the site lately as the internet on the ship I'm on, is chronically slow, so just seen the new motor, nice one! Going a shade of green already!

If it's meant - as I think it is - to be a "classy not shouty" car, the calipers should be the same.

But it is, of course, your car so your ultimate choice. What do I put here then?

I painted mine silver and the front ones looked like half a dustbin lid was stuck behind the wheel. Rolling with laughter So I painted them black and they look so much better.

Of course you did..... Rolling with laughter

As black isn't technically a colour (and Craig asked for a colour... although they would look fine), I vote for a dark grey. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

Morning.
For the headlight part of the facelift is it just the headlights and the LCM that has to be changed or is there conectors and programing also invoved. Are the purpose built LCM units easy to purchase.

No sir it’s an aftermarket solution that replaces the LCM… Lots of wiring & programming…

Red looks good, Craig.

Have you got much left to do on your facelift now?
