Hi All,
Has anyone replaced their green front grill badge with an OEM black one? If anyone has any photos or advice on the install that would be great.
I see - just a note is states 'for use on rear' ? suspect you've spotted that & it probably makes no difference to the fitment....
I'm a little torn as I was thinking RR ones, but I'm note sure now....

As far as I can tell the description reads ' DAG500160 - SUPERCHARGED OVAL BADGE - BLACK / SILVER (FOR USE ON GRILLE OF VEHICLES - NOT DISCOVERY 4)' - Use on Grille.
I'm a big fan of the OEM look, but a few subtle custom touches look perfect.
I've got black wheel nuts to compliment my black wheels, and i've had my tailpipes refinished in black too.

You sound like a man after my own heart! :lol: - been looking for ages for Black wheel nuts - very expensive....can you point me to the black exhaust pics - must be some on here?...if not please take a pic! - how did you do the tips?
I've done the dead pedal, door pull inserts & centre console cubby holes with the aluminum VELAR of ebay look good & good value

Looks very smart! Very stealthy! - did you fit them? easy?
I got my front (LR) emblem today - I've been assured by the seller it will fit - some don't apparently…
I'm really rubbish about fitting anything - but the you tube vids look easy!

Mine is debaged on the back, if you scroll up on the thread debadge all the way for me. No regrets at all. I've taken off the rear LR badge, and the side R-dynamic badges too.

Hoping to collect later today. He hasnt sent me photos of the front, but I will get one later hopefully. I have gone with swap and if I dont like it i will take them off later!

Just realised your message read 'having seen the rear of VelarBlack's debadged beauty'! Thanks for the kind words and looking forward to your update...I was super tempted to do black rear too
I did the same as Velar black, no badge on rear looks much better. Just be careful when you are removing the original green badge of the front as its easy to damage the grill.

The grille was off on mine, and bit of heat on the rear plus a little hole through the back of it allows it to push out quite easily. I can see it would be easy to damage if you go at it from the front.

Thanks for the heads up...I might take the grill off if its a easy enough
My Gloss black EOM wheel nuts kit are on the way...I think Ebay £125 was reasonable under the circumstances compared to new...

I was going to do the rear as well, but as soon as I took the green one off, I liked the bare look soo much, that I didn't bother fitting the black one

This is mine, zoomed out a bit. If you want it further then let me know.
I used this part https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Land-Rover-Discovery-Sport-BLACK-SILVER-front-grlle-oval-badge-grill-LRB/383081941538?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
It was genuine and turned up in JLR packaging. I haven't got that to hand to quote the part number on the packaging.

I'll scope out the ease of installation tonight and if it looks easy enough i'll be doing the same!
