Yes very smart if it was mine I would paint the grill and headlight surrounds Santorini black to match the roof. 2016 Defender Landmark 90

Bowlers are definitely on the short list ?

Probably going to go with series surrounds in black eventually, slow but sure ..... Instagram; @gavin_walding

Roy/G4V

Is your roof gloss black or satin. Mine is just straight silver and am going for black bits soon. Having the roof wrapped and buying bits for the grill. steerign guard, vents etc.
Questions I'm debating is to buy gloss black bits or a more Mat/satin. It's a lot of cash to change so wondered what you have and is there any chance can you send a few more photos of the combo?

I love the look of Silver Defenders personally.

Cheers in advance.

Only 6 months into ownership and it’s on a ramp in bits Laughing

The clutch died on me at the weekend, sourced an uprated clutchfix kit, so should last a bit longer, also purchased the Ashcroft output shaft kit to do whilst it’s in bits just to be safe

Glad I did as the original was well corroded

Oh Ashcroft Very Happy

Been a mad couple of weeks, after fitting the clutch and output shaft I had a trip to flatdog, new roof rack and ladder fitted and I love it, great place and lovely people..

As we had a couple of weeks booked off work we booked a Eurotunnel crossing and headed for central France in search of some carp, camped next to the canal in a load of spots spread along about 50 miles of the Bourgogne canal, a thousand miles return trip and the defender didn’t miss a beat, we loved every minute of it and can’t wait for the next trip

Today we made up for the wet bank holiday weekend and got stuck into the sound deadening, rear floor, back and sides done, genuinely thought I’d have enough for the roof too so more ordered

A very satisfying job, and the thud as the doors shut now is lovely Very Happy

Good job!

What deadening did you use? Have you done the front doors? Any pics... How much of the door do you need to take apart?

I can thoroughly recommend getting some 6mm foam over that Silent Coat, on the sides above and below the waistline. Doing the roof in a similar manner will also make a huge difference. In practice, you don't need to cover quite so much of each panel with Silent Coat but the foam should go edge to edge to get the best effect.

I did mine in this fashion last year and it totally transformed it:

Like you though, I did cover the whole floor, so that the carpet I later installed would lie flat. Darren

Totally covered the sides as smooth as possible as I’m carpet lining them, the floor will have a mat back down, the roof is a bit patchwork but still makes a difference, managed to get the roof lining reinstalled, utility sides behind the trim carpeted and a few bits of trim also covered..... slow but sure
