Grille options
Hi, I want to change the look of the front of my Defender.I have aircon and on my list of changes is a winch bumper + winch, and DRL's.

I like the modern look but what alternatives are there to Kbx, Rdx Svx etc, and do they all fit with winch and aircon? 2 LandRovers, and counting!

Nowt the matter with that JWL!! I built a 200TDi 110 CSW expedition motor with my brother in law and we cobbled together a low profile winch bumper out of an old SSEB winch mount which weighed as much as the rest of the car!! Shocked 2014 110 2.2TDCi XS Station wagon

When I had this quandary, I just decided to swap out the grey for gloss black which I think looks a lot better

They're not hard to paint to change the look of your front end Cheers, David

I've gone for a Zunsport grille with two Lazer LEDs built in. Two versions are available, one with RS-4s (with a built in drl) and a slightly cheaper version with ST-4s (without the drls). Zunsport also make grilles for the air and heater intakes, if you fancy a common approach to all three intakes. I suspect (but do not know) that Zunsport make similar grilles without the light apertures.

Mine is being delivered on Friday; hopefully I'll be able to mount the grille and lamps over the weekend (I've already removed the factory grille and wired up a relayed +ve, -ve and high beam signal wire to the front end, using the LR genuine auxiliary light switch)...

I'll post pictures after fitting if you're interested.

Is that a Stage 1 V8 grille? If not, may I ask where you got it?

I really do prefer that look to the cheapo sagging plastic thing fitted as standard! Genuine Stage 1 V8 grilles seem to be as rare as hens' teeth though. Big Cry

The KBX Signature grille is new for this year and worth a look.

Nakatanenga heritage style grill?

In black, silver or unpainted so you can paint it to match or contrast with your vehicle.

@ Blackwolf, I could tell you that it's a Stage 1 but I won't as it is home made. I swopped an old non air-con radiator panel for the air-con front. Bit of cutting and filling to modernise it from an early 90 version with the key hole and starting handle slot to a Td5 style with the oil cooler vent. Whilst I was out with the filler I filled the square holes where the fin grill is fixed. Two metres of round bar, some mesh and a couple of rattle cans and you're there.
