2011 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 SW Sumatra Black

The build looks so good. Perfectionist!

Have you though of getting a enthusiast photographer or professional to take pics one finished!

Another small detail I wanted to add, CNC side badges. These are scaled down to 120mm so we had to use a 0.5mm cutter to get the perfect result. After coating and facing the top surfaces, I just hand finish with a a flat surface table and 800 grit to remove the cutter pattern, then a clear matt coat. Then fitted with M3 SS fixings. When I re fit the bonnet I can finally say the exterior is complete.

And took advantage of the black Friday sale at classic parts for a new gloss black badge.

So I have sent the various bits away to get trimmed. Nothing OTT as I think I am going to leave the factory seats as is. One idea I thought of to add some contrast was a seat belt colour change? Maybe a Porsche silver/grey?? Andy

Lovely day so hung up the transit keys and used the Defender. Have to take out the seat belts tonight so wont be on the road for a week or so until I get them back and refit with the few bits of leather.

That’s looking really good

I’ll have to keep my eye out for this on the road over here now it’s hit the blacktop Andy.

So some progress with the leather, not trying to make this into a Range Rover Sport so just plain black nappa, the sliding front lid has worked out really well, still to trim the inside and then I have a printed cover that clips onto the hinge at the back.
