Time to get rid of the dealer logo on SWMBO's winter wheel cover,

Sorted.

Al2O3 I asked admin if I could use the forum logo, then made up a jpeg graphic image with a canvas size of 20" diameter. emailed it to a sign printer and asked them to print it on vinyl 20" diameter, cut out an elipse for the LR badge and stuck it on. Cost approx. £20 for printing.

Made a few others to choose from.

I'm planning on putting a false spare wheel on the back and have been wondering what to put on the cover. I'll have to ask LZ for permission, if I decide to go for it. :)

Why a false one? Why not a real one, then it might be some use if you get a flat tyre.

Because in thirteen years I've had two doors shaken to bits by the spare wheel. Now I'm on to my third door I want to make it last. I've never had a flat tyre in all that time. It doesn't travel much more that 40 miles away from the house, so if it gets a flat it'll be no hassle to collect the spare. The kids are grown up and don't go away with us much now, so if we do go further in it I'll put the spare on the back floor.

It looks good, but why use a image of a tratter, when it's on the back of the Freelander? Surely a Freelander image would have looked more in keeping with the vehicle?
 
I thought about it Nodge, and about buying a plain one, but I it was new and in good nik, I did 6 total, but only showed SWMBO one of them, if I showed her them all, it would have been like going with her to pick bloody wallpaper. Just wanted to cover the dealer advert that I hated, I change number plates if there is a dealer logo across the bottom, it is a pet hate of mine.

Plus I thought the forum logo looked better kept as original as possible.

I was going to ask that, but I really get where Al2O3 is coming from. One of the first things I noticed when closing the back door was how it does not shut like a passenger door, it actually rattles as it closes, especially the buffer and stabilizer, that is either worn, or a **** poor fit. When I stuck the cover on I popped the wheel of to check the hinges, they are sound, but it reminded me of the latch modification needed. The door cannot just rest upon a buffer, because it will get shunted up off it, and bang back down again, I plan to do it next week, will take some pics n post them.

If you go on the Freelander section of the forum, you'll see the Freelander forum image. ;)
