Hmmm had a good look at the pics I think it works,it's certainly different and you've done a professional job of putting the letters on.

I wonder if anyone will notice? We used to have two FL2's, one with the facelift and one pre facelift and my neighbour said that he hadn't noticed they were different until I pointed it out to him. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

Thumbs Up looks good to me, always fancied being a bit more adventurous on my bonnet Censored maybe having
RANDY LOVER . . . that would be a head turner , especially at my age. Rolling with laughter

Not so sure on the 'freelander', but I'd have spaced it out to the ends of the grill spars.
Did that with mine and it gives the front end a broader look imo.
 FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

Thanks for all the comments, I did think about spacing the lettering more but it didnt quite look right, especially when compared to Discoveries and Defenders with the lettering on the bonnet.
Gotta change the rear badge for Matt Black now too 👍🏼😝 32 years / 25 Vehicles

That looks really good Thumbs Up , I take it these are bigger letters than the ones used on the tailgate?

If so did you have to buy different kits to make up the letters or can you get them individually?
