2012 Freelander 2 TD4 XS Manual Buckingham Blue

Out of interest do the guards make the wind noise worse as they must disrupt the airflow? 2012 MY TD4 SX Manual in very rare Buckingham Blue!

Looks nice. Where did you buy it from?

I don't mind the guards. I would never add them but i wouldnt turn a car down because it had them if everything else added up

Just got a full set myself (from Dan @ Duckworths). I've fitted them before to a Freelander 1 and Disco 2 which was easy enough. Just seems to be a lot more drilling this time and rivnuts galore, even on the rear ones. Have asked the dealer to give me a price to fit along with side steps and mud flaps.

What did TVLR charge for fitting? 2015 BMW
2012 Freelander 2 GS Red (gone)

2004 Discovery TD5 Landmark Silver (gone)
2000 Freelander XEDi Red (gone)
1996 Discovery 300TDi S Blue (gone)

Sorry Spuddie, can't remember as it was a couple of years back, think i had them put the guards on when they did my first service, so would have been about an hours labour, which was a lot cheaper then pratstones
