United Kingdom 2010 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Biscay Blue
Chrome exhaust trim

Just cleaned the car and stood back to admire the shine....... then noticed the exhaust spoils the look from the rear! I know Land Rover do a chrome trim specifically for the Freelander but at a price! Has anyone found a good looking aftermarket trim yet? 2010 HSE TD4 auto, Biscay Blue, Almond Leather, facelift front and rear, detachable towbar, front & rear mudflaps, bib spoilers, clear high level brake light, smooth rear wiper, colour coded door handles.

Ralphk bought an aftermarket one, pics will be in his gallery. Keep your eye on the bay for the genuine ones, there is one on there at the moment going cheap, if you get one you may want to think about cutting a couple of inches off the tail pipe before you fit it so it fits higher up Question

The best exhaust trim I have seen is where Mav71 has put a V6 rear box on his FR2 TD. It actually looks perfect and I have to say the normal chrome trims that L/R make look really naff !

Unfortunately Mav71 has an empty gallery, never mind I believe you as twin exhausts look the biz. For a single trim to look half decent it would have to begin out of normal sight and not look like a bit stuck on the end.

Concur - I had one but thankfully someone nicked it whilst parked up at the station. If I was so minded again I would do a MAV71 and use the I6 box Thumbs Up MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.
