I too have a stornoway grey 90 and I did quite a bit of pondering before commiting to buying a grille as I too was unsure of colour. I sought Killer's advice and surprisingly he didn't suggest 'white.' He justifiably stated that go for satin black...It's cheaper and if you don't like it get it sprayed rather than go for a more expensive colour then have to shell out to get it sprayed. Sound advice Killer...thanks! I went for 'satin premium' and am personally happy with the satin and it shall remain so. Had to source some longer bolts for the Corsetti lightguards as the lamp surrounds are recessed slightly and are deeper. As a footnote the Corsetti lightguards are wonderfully engineered but have one of the poorest powdercoat finishes I have seen. Couple of months (if that) on the vehicle and flaking already. Stripped them and four coats of undercoat and another four of top coat of Plastikote and they are now ok. Found an early picture of my 90...... £12,730 later (not taking into account items removed and sold).....Not sure if it's a good idea keeping a running total....With KBX Grille....

Thanks for your thoughts....Slightly 'off topic' I know but many moons ago (1998 ish) I had a TDCI 50th Discovery and used to get it serviced by James French, one of the workers there had a 'tricked up' Defender with the registration K10NKY (Obviously looked like 'Klonky') I loved the look of it and was intensely envious. I think that vehicle has been my 'driving force' behind my own. Fourteen years later and I think I'm finally getting where I wanted to be all those years ago. He wouldn't sell it then either...... Wonder if old 'Klonky' is still kicking around? If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!! Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |
