Overfinch has added their traditional three cooling apertures in the front bumper – complete with lacquered carbon fibre treatment – and the new back bumper, side skirts and roof spoiler are all made from carbon fibre too, perfectly in tune with the new Range Rover’s lighter ethos, and there’s a set of cast tailpipes by Overfinch at the back.
