As promised, here are some more photos of the TD5 as it stands right now. Just replaced the rear propshaft UJ's and went for a spin. Sides rolled up and the stage 2 remapped TD5 roaring the whole way. I removed the KBX grille and replaced it with a standard one, I feel it suits the car a lot better. Will be trying a standard galvanised bumper as well to see what that looks like. I will keep the feed running as changes and maintenance occurs

Enjoy!

New galvanised bumper fitted! What do people think? Better than the tubular one?

2006 Defender 110 Td5 USW Zermatt Silver

Prefer the galv bumper

Why the offset number plate?

Sorry to be contrary but I think a black bumper would look better!

(Not that my view matters in the slightest!)

Not sure why I offset the number plate, but I kind of like it so have stuck with it. Easily changeable as well! Instagram - @Land_Rover_Defender

2012 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 HT Santorini Black

The galv bumper for me matches nice with side tree bars , a set Wolf rims in off white could finish the look off .
