Painted truckman rear canopy.
Painted mirror covers.
KM2 or other brand mud terrains or ATR tyre's.
Possibly LED lights all around etc.
Other than that I wouldn't go too far. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

What do you use it for?

As standard LED lighting all round (as above), Synco Slickshift, if its a TD5 clutch pedal spring mod - Both make fenders much easier and more pleasant to drive. Then think about a mild remap.

Alive stage 1 tune, with EGR delete to get rid of that issue. Alarm antenna extension mod.
SS bolt kit.

Another couple of ideas there. Thumbs Up Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Brendan @ 4x4 Overlander. He's on here under the username 'LEEDS'.

I have the kit, it's great, it's identical pretty much to Genuine only stainless and with anti seize paste.

As I said to Naf in his seat thread, go for the RX8 front seats, you will not be disappointed!!
I'd also look at the Mud UK heated mirror retrofit as well White '03 RoW 300tdi 130 Utility (Converted From HICAP By Foleys Specialist Vehicles)
Black '05 Td6 L322 Vogue
Silver '01 P38 DHSE

I've already recovered the seats and fitted the cubby box, I'll end up selling it no doubt

Yes, Tibus portals, beadlockers, and CTIS.

There is a thread on Expedition Portal about it (built by a chap with the pseudonym Oilworker) and there was IIRC a similar thread on the D44 forum in the old days. It is quite a truck.

It was built on prototype Tibus portals which had an inch more offset than the production ones.

I imagine that just getting in the cab was quite an achievement!
