MY13> Light trims

Having always been a big fan of lamp guards I was more than disappointed when I discovered that LR did not design any for the current FL. I've came across them trims is sicking chrome Rolling with laughter however if one was to get them sprayed in matt or gloss black then it wouldn't look to bad I think! They will not protect the light but it does help to break them up Whistle

Let's discuss .....

Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

As easy as that Censored

I hate horrid chrome! My idea was to get them finished in matt black or gloss black! But then the more Ive looked at it Ive thought hmmmm maybe not;

1. Its from China where everything is built but it may not be good quality 3M tape
2. It may not be a perfect fit with gaps etc
3. Dirt will collect around the edges
4. Eh kinda like this forum Bow down Laughing MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

Thought somebody might ask that Embarassed

Laughing

It was the dash vent trim ..... 6 pieces for £28, seemed a good buy at the time.
But was thinking of maybe just using 4 bits if the 6 is too much
However, if I don't like the look of it when it turns up, I can always sell on.
Just thought it may brighten up the black dash.

A guy in Poland used to do some laser cut stainless vent surrounds, they looked very good, chrome may be a little 'blingy'

If you don't like them you can get them painted in gloss black it call it RGBLP "Rons Grand Black Lacquer Pack" Laughing Im happy with the dark interior i just wish on the FL2 there was an option of specing ebony morzine headling!

Tbh I'm not a fan of chrome but I do like stainless steel as up here with the amount of salt they scatter will eat through any powdered coated steel accessories Evil or Very Mad Twisted Evil MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

They're more a brushed silver as opposed to chrome and also in plastic.
But much of today's oem silver trim is already in plastic, so depends on the fit and how it's adhered.

For £29 (not £28 ) it seems a decent gamble.
