Not Station Wagons ....
But my 2007 hardtop has it colour coded, and Bro in law's 2008 double Cab has it colour coded too HTH Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant. |

Thanks Dave-H!
My SW is currently back with the Main Dealer having one or two problems sorted out. I'd flagged up with them that the grille paintwork was completely blistered due to corrosion beneath the surface. They phoned up to say that it wasn't painted in the first place, so there couldn't be a problem with the paintwork blistering! I know that the vehicle is Zambezi Silver, but even so? 
Time to call them back!  '57 Defender 110 XS Station Wagon 2.4tdci |

I'm pretty sure the perforated grille on my '07 Puma XS SW was painted, that was Zambezi Silver one too. Steve.

If you're talking about the intercooler grille they all rot out. Latter ones from MY11 I believe are colour coded but previous to this they were not. See below I had a stainless ones made.

Mine's still body coloured and no flaking. Mind you, my rear X member is officially ginger, so i'm not one to boast.
