Opinions on re badging bonnet

RRLee · Jul 7, 2015

So as we all know the RR has a front end like a brick so really prone to stone chips, after 10000 miles mine was a mess, so had it painted and it looks like new again, but.... Now I am tempted to leave the lettering off and wanted some opinions, my thought was if I did badge it back up do I stick to original or go with gloss black? Any thoughts appreciated

If I ever get round to having the crap paint on the bonnet of mine re-sprayed, I will not be putting the name back.

I am thinking the same, I just can't work out if I like it bare just because it's different, I do still think it does make it look smart without

Name is pointless IMO, most people recognise a Range Rover, just another expense to replace.

Cover it up with a OEM wrap-around nudge bar....

From that angle it looks as if you would need a couple of black clad guys with balaclavas and H&Ks in the back seat to complete the 'look'.

As for the original car I think that it looks quite good without the lettering.
Certainly a d**n sight better than having KHAN on there.

I polished my bonnet on the white P38 and de badged it. I have now put red ones on it off a Sport. It definitely looks different.

Will this do???

(Photo of me on a very rare day dressed up....we had a dress-down Friday and considering I look like a mess when I usually go to work - as I work both in the design office and because I primarily do R&D, I also get involved in the workshop making the prototypes too!!! so I usually wear Cargo trousers and company branded polo jumper! so I surprised everyone and came in dressed in a suit and tie......I was just reaching for my phone in my inside pocket on my way out when our Admin Manager snapped me by surprise!)
