Cheers. It seems too cheap for the black parts from the uk. Do they generally quote ex tax, as the prices I saw didn't say either way
This is just a quick idea in case you wanted to try something different...
There is a flexible plastic coating available called "Plasti Dip". It has been around for yonks in the USA, but not easily available in Australia until recently. It has a multitude of uses, but recently people have been using it to coat wheels in whatever colour they choose (usually black). It can be peeled off at any time with no damage whatsoever to original item.
They have even demo'd painting an entire car in it.
In general it is a matte finish, but you can also add a specific "gloss" coat as well.
Try doing a search on YouTube for it.

Not unusual at all actually. The dealer over here gave me the same advice.
But it has nothing at all to do with them trying to steer you towards purchasing your accessories overseas or third party - they still want the business.
The reason that they recommend not adding any accessories to your vehicle at the time of purchase is because your new Disco is already going to cost you more than it should because of the "Luxury Car Tax". Any accessories that you add at the time of purchase are also taxed at the "Luxury" rate - whereas if you purchase them and have them fitted later on - you will pay far less tax on them. Makes sense to me - anything to reduce the amount of tax I pay to these thieving mungrels wins my vote.

I just got back from Los Angeles and there were a few "all-black" Range Rovers. I saw one Discovery in the full black kit and I didn't much like it. Our teenage son said it made it look like the wheels were dirty. I have a black SDV6 coming in four weeks. Personally I'm glad I didn't get the black kit.
I was amazed how many RR and RRS's I saw around West Hollywood and Beverly Hills. It is certainly the vehicle of choice in that part of LA.
