I must admit the white ones do seem to suit the black arches Cheers Ian

Mine has the unpainted wheel arches by choice (it's optional on the D4 Commercial to have them painted!). I think they (a) look better and (b) if you scrape them they don't cost a fortune to repaint.....
I also fitted the side rubbing strips which also enhance the looks - pity they don't go all the way from arch to arch though like they did on D1 & D2!2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

its just a bit too white when its clean . I was in 2 minds as sometimes I like the white arches and other times not .
i have the old ones ..only takes 1/2 to swap them all over .
I think it breaks it up a bit ...and more practical for meG4 Gone ...but not forgotten
