Had my freely 6 weeks and its not the same car i picked up

Had my freely coming up to 6 weeks now and things have changed a little in such a short time Wink

Joined this site a week before i was due to pick up my freely as i thought it would be handy not knowing nothing about Freelander's - my last 3 cars where Jeeps

The first post i read on here was Mav's and couldn't believe all the mods he had done to his freely and ever since then iv caught the freely bug Laughing
if it wasn't for this site my freely would still look the same now as it did when i first picked it up

here is all my mods to date

Mirror Caps (Color Coded)
Rear Spoiler
wheel arch protectors (All 4 Arches)
Mudflaps (Front & Back)
HST Tip - (still need to fit)
Front Face lift
Front splash Guards
Clear Side Indicators/ Repeaters (In the Post Should Have Them Monday)
Headlight Washers (Color Coded)
I think that's it so far
still need

Side Steps
Rear Boot face lift Handle
Black Gel Badges

Here are a few photos the first one is the dealers advert photo, and all the others was taken today 6 weeks on

Looks fantastic, but to finish it off, get the clear or smoked indicator repeaters.

I'm very impressed, that's a smashing car with all the changes you've made!!. Agree about the side repeaters.

I know what you mean about Mav's posts re his car and being part of this forum it is really inspiring. The wealth of knowledge and help available here is priceless.

I agree. Without him, I wouldn't have done any modifications. Only 2 so ar on mine, pain black grab handles and LR carpet mats. Body side mouldings and mudflaps are next on my list, and anything else I fancy. Wink

It's great to hear that you enjoy the forum. Thumbs Up

I changed out my GS 17's for the 'sparkle' 18's, good decision Thumbs Up Don't forget to think on rear tints also.

Is it possible to have privacy film that hides the screen elements? I have factory fitted glass and you can't see them.
