Wanted - Pictures of black lettering on a grey disco
I'm getting my bonnet resprayed next week as I picked up a really nasty chip on the front edge, before I get new LAND ROVER letters I wanted to see what black letters look like, anyone got pictures of black LAND ROVER on their bonnet, preferably on Orkney grey but any would do.

Here you go Dave,
Sorry they on my old silver banger and are painted satin black Also note these are smaller letters which i didn't realise till after they were painted and we went to fit them,they are actually FL2 one's hence the space between LAND and Rover is bigger

Not quite an answer, but I'm planning on replacing mine with black letters, they look kind of wrong in brunel as soon as anything else is changed to black. ... go for it
