Hi Mav,
On the subject of seat foams, do you think the replacement foam is better quality and stiffer grade?
I've just had my drivers seat foam and fabric changed under warranty and I feel that it's quite a different ride hardness and higher up. My car has 34k miles.

They are identical to the original part. It is just that you don't notice the deterioration of the original, but when you add a new one, it feels much firmer and like a new seat. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather.

After fitting all the piano black trim, I thought the bright silver gearshift surround looked a little out of place, so I decided to something about it.

Here are the pics :-

Hi Mav - looks good!
Is this a new part or is it as I guess, that you have sprayed it black. If the latter please could you indicate how you prepared it and what primers, undercoats and gloss you used as it would help all other forum readers of the biography.
Kind regards from Fred

See this thread http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic15672.html
it will be better posted there or we will end up with two threads for the same thing and it gets messy.

Thanks Taz, the reason I posted it in two sections, was to keep my biography up to date, and also a separate thread for members who don't want to g through the Bio.  Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather.

That's OK, left the two sets of pics in place as its good to see the overall progress in one place, already thinking of leather upgrade in mine, great stuff you do, keep it coming

The powerful uk ones do.

The LR rear mud flaps are a lousy fit and have gaps however it doesn't cause any problem and if you tow mudflaps are a bonus to stop the caravan getting mucky and damaged. I've no complaints about the front ones; only praise for stopping mud getting sprayed up the car side.
I've read somewhere on this forum that the Powerful mud flaps are a 100% copy and a suggestion that they might be offthe same mould.

Chris1806,

Fredastaire, I tried Powerful ones first but they have recently changed the mould so the top edge no longer follows the line of the lower bumper but runs down in the opposite direction and I wasn't keen on how that looked. Now wondering if this mightn't have been the lesser to two evils.

I think that mine fit perfectly, especially seeing that they are half the price of LR ones. I would recommend them.

OMG, awesome looking FL2, not showing the good lady the pic's just yet as it has the potential to cost me.

Like the others I love what you have done and thanks for supplying the part numbers for the interior door handles and the for light covers, luckily my car already has the black dash facia but do you have the part numbers for the black steering wheel controls? That's the one thing I have been dying for since I first saw them

I also love the gear lever surround but scared to paint this myself!

After these the next stop for me is the 2013 lights and hopefully the grill!
