RE: Trim/Grille

You sure? The brochures I saw indicated that on 5 door Pure all the following

- Grille
- Fender Vents
- Tailgate Finisher
- Cladding insert (strip on side sill)

are ALL Brunel

while on 3 door all of the above as well as the Bonnet Louvres are Dark Atlas

That said, either way it does not work very well - the Prestige Atlas trim (Silver) sets off the OG a lot better

Current: SD4 Dynamic Auto, 5 Door, Orkney Grey with Black Contrast Pano roof and 20" Shadow Chrome wheels. Pursuit interior. [countdown="Hand over"]15th June 2013 2:00pm[/countdown]

Gone: Si4 Prestige Auto Coupe, Orkney Grey with Panoramic Roof, Element interior, Shadow Chrome 20" wheels with most of the bits & pieces loaded. [countdown="Hand over"]29th November 2011 2:00pm[/countdown]

RE: Trim/Grille

Pretty Sure, thats the way I read it anyway!!

The OG looks completely different in the Metal, that picture of the Prestige looks good but the one I saw/test drove last week seemed a bit darker with more of a browny tinge to it, and it was Definately OG and NOT Stornaway!!

RE: Trim/Grille

In the brochure on the land rover Australian website it states - for Pure

"Grille in Dark Atlas finish (Coupe Only)and Brunell finish (five door model only)

Side fender blade Dark Atlas (coupe Only) and Brunell (five door model only)

Bonnet louvers Dark Atlas (coupe only) "

I have a Pure on order but do prefer the Atlas (silver) finish of the Prestige. Wondering how hard it would be to change or even get painted similar colour?

RE: Trim/Grille

Barney, the front grille is held in by 4 screws so that will be easy to remove. If RRS/FFRR is anything to go by the side vents will either pop out with some help from a screwdriver or have a couple of bolts holding them in

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.

Cheers Tim, I will wait to get the car and have a look. It might be a good little mod I can do to give mind of a bit of individuality

I thought about changing all the parts on my fuji pure coupe to black until i saw pictures of the white with the dark atlas accessories and think it looks really good so wont be bothering now.
Think there is going to be a bit of a swaparama happening with lots of people wanting to exchange silver/atlas/brunel/black body parts.

My order- fuji white sd4 manual coupe,tech pack,xenons,style 6 20's,pano roof,privacy,front fogs,rear camera,folding mirrors,ebony int/ivory headliner,dec delivery.(still waiting!) Collected 14/01/2012
NOW SOLD as of 26/07/14 Very Happy
Now driving Audi SQ5, everything the Evoque should of been.
