Personally I don't like body kits on any vehicle and these on a Defender do absolutely nothing for me.

For the proper country look, if you need wider arches, just add a 3" strip of rubber, horizontally, to your existing arches.
Much more tasteful Laughing

Agreed, but on a more positive note, I personally do like their mildly extended eyebrows as recently listed by TOP5N. Rob

I'll try and be polite and say not for me, and I understand a lot of people will say the same about things I've done to my defenders, so if you like them go for it Thumbs Up Ray

I like the arches, Embarassed
Not keen on the front though Whistle My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years.

their is actually one around here. Done by the Chelsea truck factory, personally I don't like it as much as a std one. It has some nice touches but doesn't really suit it 2014 - current ..... 2003 defender td5 90 (my car)
2009 - current .... 2005 zx10r

They look ridiculous. The sort of thing that makers of sci fi B movies do to make current vehicles look futuristic on a very small budget Rolling Eyes Darren
