Genius on the Defender mudflaps! I will be stealing that idea, were they difficult to fit?
My old one in the field, literally.

Thanks looks borderline stuck
Not difficult at all - a sharp knife to modify them behind the wheel arches as they are too wide inside and need trimming to not found exhaust, etc.,
After that a few self tappers in to the inner plastic wheel arch - job done!MY15 DIY Black Pack (Better than factory and half the price!)

Balls, my delivery date has been pushed back again. Originally it was a late Feb build, then it was mid March and now they're saying late March build with a 6 week gap in between build and delivery, which is going to put a spanner in the works as we get very busy come early April.
Apparently the commercials don't get sent to LR SPV anymore for conversion, they're done at Solihull, so that would usually explain the 6 week gap from build to delivery.

Delivery finally scheduled today! I should be picking it up on Tuesday, which is a big sigh of relief as I'm very busy in work and have borrowed my dads old P38 Vogue (which I might add is still a mighty fine tow vehicle!).
Ive ordered black Bearmach side tubes, genuine black grille, genuine black vents, silver extended roof rails and black "DISCOVERY" badges front and rear. I'll be getting the door handles and the foglight bezels colour coded at some point too.

I'd been tempted to try this and hadn't realised it had already been done. I didn't follow through in the end as I thought they'd simply be too big and might even foul the tyre in reverse.
Do you have any clearer pictures that you'd be able to post please? I'd like to give it a go 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: 2 x FL2 as “second” cars 🙄
2021 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200
2022 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!

Yours must have been near mine on the line then, the very last commercials off it I've been reliably informed.
