I do like those grilles - where do they come from? Am I right in thinking they were fitted as standard to Saudi market Discos?

Grille was made by my own fair hand.  Just took a Dremmel to a standard Td5 grille and then pop riveted the stainless mesh in place.  Had to add the cut out for the free-spool lever afterwards  :wink:


Wow - doubt my hands are quite that steady!

they all look good but nothing looks better than the tubular winch bumper with a winch popping out the top of it but that my personal opinion :lol:

with lifts i rekon thats thats the right offset u want.

2inch lift 31s

3 inch lift 32s

4 inch 33s

6 inch 35s take a look at fingers mclean what a beast to look at.

i do like jake old motor with 32s on a 2inch lift the cut archs out makes a difference.

also if land rover had fitted 32s from the start the disco looks so more harder offroad same for the rangie with all the standard bumpers in place

here is mine. under the water is a trimmed 300tdi bumper. I like the look of the number plate holder as it breaks up the straight lines and the light guards fit nicely too I think, although they do vibrate and rattle when stood outside! there is also a steering guard with hi lift and recovery points on. Must take some shots of the beast sometime!



it doesnt look school mum run 4x4 but again it doesnt look aggressive off roader which is kind of the look I am after. One that makes people think what it is used for.

found a better photo taken about nearly 2 years a go. not much has changed though except tree sliders and the grizzlies are for playing on. I have steel wheels with bfg at's for day to day use.
