I just bought a gray/blk 2006 RR sport. I am looking to do a few nice modifications to it. Hopefully this forum can help!

Welcome, what kind of mods?

I ordered a set of Redbourne Dukes 22", and I am going to try to spray my grills/gills with a Charcoal Mettalic paint by duplicolor.

Do you guys know how to remove the side grills?

PLEASE GOD DONT!!!!!! its stuff like this that is making the Range Rover name get associated with ghetto garbage. Please modify and use the rig as it was meant to be used, ie, Off road tires/wheels, brush guards, roof racks ect. However if a "bling" ghetto cruiser is what your after please trade it in on something more appropriate like a Escalade or H2.

welcome, but don't repaint your grilles with crap spray paint and don't put 22s.....

I knew someone would say that.

HAHAHA sorry I didnt buy the range to go in the woods. I think it is a great on road/off road vehicle. I think its fine to have 2 sets of wheels/tires for different things. Painting the grills graphite is not making it "ghetto". I use my rover for trips, towing, and for looks. I take my dirtbike offroading not my $40k range rover. I do know what it is capable of, and I am coming from a 96 disco that loved to climb mountains. This range is my DD, and I want it to look nice on the road. Once it gets higher miles, and I have the money to beat on her. I will

Still, I love the sports......

I like how your sport looks, have you seen the Revere version? Very nice!!

stolenheron · 06-03-2009, 04:30 PM

ah ok, well this guy can rock 22s if he knows what they are capable of.

although i could definitely skip the big wheel/rubber band tire look I must admit the rest of the vehicle is stunning!
