No worries Marco, you're doing a great job and its a pleasure to watch...Wink

I nearly bought a 110 but it wont fit my garage (and they disappear if you leave them outside round here), so always jealous when I see a 110 being well modded.

Keep up the good work.

Cheers

Simon

Fitted seat covers to my front seats and also got my windows tinted.

As you can see he couldn't do the small windows (alpine windows), the other company I phoned didn't want to even try.

The alpine's curve in both directions, I asked my window tinting man and he said they had tried before and weren't happy with the finish so won't do them, shame as I wanted mine doing. Looking good so far Thumbs Up Defender 110 xs Utility

Got the alpine lights sorted out now.
Fitted a set of drawers and cage door from dogtran. I can now leave the back door open and have the dogs locked inside with plenty of air.

I now need to figure out how I can lock the rear door open so it can't be closed accidentally, if you have any thoughts on this please let me know.

that looks very tasty! Thumbs Up

not seen the rear cross-member colour matched before, do you think this will last longer than the standard black (to be read as "soon to rust") they paint the cross-members with?

Getting ready for the summer weather now. Installed a custom made picnic box so we can stop and enjoy our picnic in style.

It also comes out and can be stacked one on top of the other. It's strong enough for sitting on also.

Marco, just reads this through from the start. Some top work there Thumbs Up And as for the picnic set, that is awesome.

Have you considered a rear door strut from 4x4Overlander to stop the door closing? Fitted one to mine and its got to be one of the top mods out there. 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone

It has been a while since I have changed or added something to the Defender. That's simply because it's been going great.

Just picked up on this thread! How are the colour matching rear X-member and the bumper doing? Any signs of rust / paint flake etc?

Looking great!

Out of interest how much was it to colour code the bumper and crossmember
