Spare wheel covers
Do LR only sell a silver wheel cover that you need to get colour coded to match? (VPLEW0143)

I'm looking for a black one or decent quality alternatives...

They offer colour coded options but are pricey, cheaper to get the silver one painted.

Powerful UK have some but don’t have the Defender lettering on them. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

If the rear wheel covers don't have DEFENDER stamped into them, then suspect they are 'Chinese' copies.

there is one on eBay at the moment, at £290 !!!!

I can confirm I bought a Gondwana stone ordered from Vulkan in thetford. It matches perfectly and has defender lettering. Be careful when ordering because there are two vulkans in thetford. I can’t say for sure but rumour is, the two vulkan chaps on YouTube we’re part of the thetford firm but are now on their own and still using the name. I used House of vulkan in thetford and the covers were in stock and sent quickly. Had a friend who drove there with his D250 SE to activate his adaptive cruise and he said they have a lot of defender goodies in stock and their tech team are able to activate alot of hidden features. I’m not 100pcnt sure buy my 110 has been sent somewhere similar by the dealer or previous owner.

Got one... PowerfulUK had a black one in stock. VPLEW0157 is the correct code as mentioned earlier. They don't appear on the LR spares site now though, only the silver ones...
