Wow, nice work.
Shame about Falon but great outcome!
I don’t know anything about the printing process, is it done in coloured plastic or actually aluminium? 1997 Ex-MOD 110, Pop Top Camper

Just plastic but if you are clever and patient you can get some great results. I chop and change my ideas for the badges so this cost me 25p to make and I can always try another design down the line. Andy

Falon needed £300 for the badges and went completed silent Confused . These will have cost me £1.50 each so worth the effort I think. Might clear coat them but not sure yet. Andy

Main part is just a satin aluminium spray and then liner paint for the inlays. The difference in the texture helps give the appearance of a casting and then machined plate. Andy

Given the 2 week countdown from Redbeard to get the 110 into the workshop so fun times ahead.

Falon nameplates are casting me some custom badges which is good, have a few bits ordered from Entreq, always fun on the website using google translate and also made a start on the air intake.

The likes of twisted just let the air thru the headlight bezel but i wanted to have a dedicated intake that brings some air direct to the filter as well, also just to add my own touch even if it doesn't make a huge difference.

3 parts in the assembly, front intake surround in alloy finish, then the rear plastic piece will pass thru the inner wing to meet the filter. Some black matching mesh just to stop a bird making a nest!

Outstanding work,...as usual, Twisted & indeed JLR S.V. would give you a job any day.
Regards, Pickles.

Fitted the brushed stainless Entreq sill covers today.
