GNV Protection (http://www.gnvehicleprotection.co.uk/comingsoon.html) who are a sponsor on this site would be a good place to start or try a search on here for RLD. Both make some of the kit that you're looking for

Arb front bumper (if you like it.)
Kaymar back bumper (if you like it.)
Mantec / RLD / GNVP.... front plate
Gearbox, compressor, rear diff / exhaust guards etc - custom / ask RLD / GNVP / ASFIR / Rasta.... (Maybe shorten that exhaust and put CAT bypass pipes in, too.)
Rock & Tree sliders - RLD
Spare Wheel Protector - RLD (although you ought to take it off)
Rack - Frontrunner, Prospeed.... whatever takes your fancy!
Rack bits and bobs (Jerry Can holders, antenna mounts...) - RLD
Suspension upgrades - 10forCash, Caverd3 on here... (wanna be careful with doing this one as it stresses the vehicle and will cause things to break more easily!) Matzker if you are rich, Faultmate....
Winch...10forCash, Superwinch, Warn, Milemarker (hydraulic), King One / Goodwinch , Champion...
You might want an air jack and exhaust bung and some waffle boards, an air compressor, dual battery and some.... (10forCash will help!)

Use the site seach to check out some of those things and you'll get an idea of what peoples experiences with them are and where you can get them from...or just ask, of course!

Getting stuff from UK to Czech Republic probably won't be too hard, either.

As for a rack I can fully recommend Patriot. A very solid, well built rack. A bit on the expensive side but worth every penny.
Depends on what you want to put on the rack. At first glance the Prospeed rack isn't compatible with RTT, Frontrunner looks good as well

Rock sliders

Land Rover Specialities http://www.offroving.com/36045/6715.html makes very good, but expensive rock sliders. They are very solid and can take the full weight of the car. They protect the compressor and can be had in different versions. I have option II on my car and I'm very happy with them. Only gripe is that I had to take off the mud flaps to fit them, and spray from the front wheels have worn away the powder coating on the cross bars on the stand off tubes.

There's also an other brand OE-acessories http://www.oe-accessories.com/21601/21843.html that make a wrap around sill protection. I don't have any experience with them. It looks nice, but won't offer the same protection level as the Offroving ones.

I'm with Alex on this one Thumbs Up .

Would seem that there is no concensus when it comes to terminology. Shocked

As long as your chosen product does what you want it to do then that fine Thumbs Up
