I think it looks just awesome.

Something like that... I am waiting till next month to buy the bumper piece, then trying to figure out whether to get it painted or vinyl wrapped. I'm leaning more towards the vinyl wrap for the protection of loading things. I'm wondering what it looks like if you order from the dealership? On real oem it says primered, but when I took my silver pieces off today they were only spray painted on top of the gloss black that you can order. It also may be less expensive to do double wrapped vinyl myself. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it

The top four pieces (the ones you've installed already) are all molded in either Black or Silver plastic. No painting require. For some odd reason, they didn't do the same thing for the bumper piece. It does in fact arrive primered and unfinished unlike the other 4 pieces.

Yeah, I agree!

I don't know if it's the mods, the lighting, or what, but it doesn't look nearly as 'gold' as it sometimes does.

Love that shot, lurch. You have definitely got the eye!

Congrats to lancs on the new black jacked out PW!

And everyone, keep those winter shots coming! (it's snowing here in southeastern NY as I type!)

Hey, I notice that lancs Clubman is Right hand drive and the club door is on the right side. On the UK configurator, it shows the club door on the left side when it is Right hand drive. Am I seeing things different from anyone else?
