Hello Gorgeous!
Had some trimmings made by Ben at BG Autofit.
This inclued inter alia stone chip( black), the wheel arches, the bottom sides of the car and steel corners at the rear (as well as truck grade rubber mud guards). Also changed the position of the tow bar to improve the exit clearance.
If you want roof racks, rock sliders, bullbars, rear bumbers etc, all as per your own design spec, Ben is the man to go to. He made my troll gorgeous.
I have been a bit out of action. This was also due to getting new stronger fuel pump and 8 new spark plugs.
Okay, I know "real trucks don't have spurkplugs", but mine now cruises like a dream. Like a giant, solid limousine, no matter what the speed.
No overland trip can be quite as grand an experience, as with a well adjusted Patrol

Re: Hello Gorgeous!
Alex as jy 'n paar kwyl merke op jou trollie sien dan vra ek verskoning - dit was ek wat oor jou trok gekwyl het terwyl ek daar by Ben gekuier het - ek moet saamstem daai Ben ken sy storie, hy is die go-to ou
daai trok van jou lyk baie beter in lewende lywe as wat die fotos voorgee

Re: Hello Gorgeous!
Hi Alex, it looks good!
How did you do the wheel arches, mine is currently white and I would prefer black.
Did Ben do the bullbar also?
