Thanks I'll try that stuff out then.

Which would you guys go for, matt or gloss? I'll probably be doing (or buying) the black freelander 2 for the back also.

Cant say Im a fan of having everything one colour, especially black, you need a bit of contrast as otherwise you lose the detail of the design. Sheep Sheep

Ok if youre Batman I suppose.

2011 Freelander 2 TD4 SE Manual Santorini Black

The black after market wheels have been sold.
They did not match the FL2 style vert well.

Right now, I have the original ones in 17".

Looking for Genuine 17" in glossy black for Winter tyres Wink

Like these ones ......

Looking good, but I'd go with smoked or black side repeaters.
Just my thought. Thumbs Up FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

@ronp: Not "like" these ones, but exactly these ones Wink

Just waiting a couple months before winter.

For the side repeaters, I should buy a can of black tint... Just a question of Time for this Wink

How do you like the Miltek exhaust, is it worth the effort?

You need a recording of course Whistle

Honestly, the difference is not very noticeable in term of sound on the 2.2 diesel...
At least, you won't have the sound of the petrol.

I will do a video to show you that Wink

(Here not mine, but the same exhaust on the 2.2 TD4 with DPF and Cat still in place: )

I changed my exhaust because it was rusty and the Milltek is in Inox, so a lot better than the standard one.
It is the Evoque one.

Only just seen this but still think the MATT Black vinyl wrapped German registered car shown on here some years ago was better. Thumbs Up

What about the head and tail lights?
Thought about using this stuff to complete the all black look?

fly eye is pretty rubbish IMO.
My son has it fitted on the lights on his car, done professionally by a guy who tints windows for all the local main dealers.

Within a couple of months the edges were peeling and stone chips were shredding the ones on the front lights so he removed them, but this has damaged the surface of the lights quite badly.

Fly eye = not worth the expense and hassle

I was suggesting "black out" for the lights - no idea what to use - just a thought provoker not a recommendation Whistle No Longer the owner of a 2013MY Fuji White GS
