Mmmm... Alpine white would look nice and clean and probably be the cheaper colour to add being non metallic.

Bonatti Grey does look very smart... Need to look at modern colour LR styles... something different may look nice "Big green" 2000 Td5 90 IRB Developments modified (2004-2011)

Not much has majorly changed since 2012 apart from the shedding of the roof rack and the addition of the spare wheel. I wouldn't add or change anything

I did toy with lowering 1.5" and adding some RRS wheels and tyres I'd purchased but decided against the mod. I do like the look of the MT's... Added a Femco drain plug for easier servicing, RAM mount for the ipad (music and nav), Bilstein B6 dampers. Still only 58k on the clock due to saving racking up fairly pointless "daily work miles" driving the Yeti. Sound system mods this summer and that's about it

I have just read the 4 pages through and your L90 looks really cool imo, love the transformation and after all this time you have ' near a nuff ' kept it the same

The only thing i did notice is that you have still got the original steering wheel, your happy with it ? Clayton.

Cheers folks.

Added Bilstein B6 dampers all round too. Much more stable over the bumps. Not like a kangaroo now!

The rear lights are the JW Speaker LED upgrades including the reverse light. Clear all round.

Wasn't the standard steering wheel initially. Replaced that with the XS leather one... but yeah, pretty standard as far as the rest of the mods go.
I've always liked the XS steering wheels. Had one my last 90. I find them to be a good size, weighty and comfortable.

Not really a big fan of the momo wheels as I had one before. Cant remember the model. Just didn't seem big enough but I might change in the future for a larger one. (That's what she said
