Newbie :)

Hi All,

Just joined the forum as i'm new to range rover. Was on the z4 forum and having just sold my Z4M roadster last week, i've managed to bag myself a Range Rover Evoque 2.0 SI4 Dynamic in White with bucket seats.
Will attach pictures of my previous z4 and evoque but i need help with a few things.

Car is currently in the body shop to have the bumpers, badges and alloys resprayed in black. Basically the black pack treatment. After all that's done, its going in for a full detail which will take 6 days to do apparently.

Couple of things i need help with, there seem to be some paint bubbling on the passenger door window sill. See attached pictures. Is this something i can get done under the paint warranty? The 3 year warranty has run out. If not can someone tell me where i can get a replacement? Considering the car is only 4 years old i wasn't expecting that sort out bubbling.

I'm also looking to buy a set of Style 508 alloys which are on the MY16 evoques, again if anyone knows where i can get my hands on a set that would awesome.

Thanks for all your help in advance.

Pictures of the car as it is now and the pictures of the paint bubbling. Will post more pictures once it's all sorted in the next couple of weeks.

Hi and Welcome Trazem

Looks good, Enjoy!

Regarding the Paint Warranty, it's worth a try taking it to a dealer and asking, but you may find the warranty only covers Corrosion from inside out or defects (I've fought this long and hard with Mazda and failed), or they will say stone chip damage, the rubber does look a little marked like it's taken a hit? It shouldn't be a huge cost to have repaired at a body shop as it's a small area to respray if a bit fiddly with the trim/rubber removal.

For the wheels try the forum sponsor Duckworths, franchised Land Rover dealers who support the forums

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.
